Here's a chilling piece...

...by Matthew Dowd on Sarah Palin's chances for 2012. He's not particularly fond of her but offers some suggestions as to how she could improve herself as a candidate. But what really caught my eye was this paragraph:

While Democrats love Obama, Republicans look on him with real disfavor. The gap between Obama's approval rating among Democrats and among Republicans is nearly 70 percentage points -- a higher partisan divide than either Bill Clinton or George W. Bush experienced. Obama's agenda and actions this year, and some mistakes, have solidified this divide.

Really? What mistakes? Maybe the real reason Republicans hate Obama so much is that he's black. And maybe they're just plain afraid that they're losing they're privileged place in this society. Maybe that's what these Tea Party idiots mean when they cry that they "want their country back."

By 2012, the economy will have recovered and Obama will win in a walk. And Sarah Palin will go down in history as an asterisk.

C'mon BOWG...Why is it always a 'Race issue' whenever someone disagrees with Comrade Obama? Why can't it be because the policies being introduced by the left will leave the US aat a competitive disadvantage for generations!
Oh how I miss Ronnie!!
