Harry is an ass.

I happened to catch Wolf Whatshisname on CNN interviewing Palin today on
CNN.
Try as he did, he couldn't get her to screw up, get confused, stumble or
otherwise make any news worthy of a comment by Harry. She was sharp,
knowledgeable of the issues, ranging from the gas line project in Alaska
to Obama's economic programs/policies to the potential threat of North
Korea's nuclear program and to the potential of Obama's comments in Egypt
resulting in alienating the US from Israel.

I have to admit that following some of the ill prepared gaffs she made
during the election cycle, she has improved dramatically, at least in
this particular interview. You could tell that Wolf was getting
exasperated because he couldn't get her to screw up.

These comments by me do not mean I think she is a serious contender for
2012, nor do I think she is particularly qualified to be POTUS. But,
she is a lot brighter than the media and Harry and his tribe like to
broadcast.

Oh, she did a pretty good number on Letterman also (which IMO, he
deserves). He has acknowledged that his comments were inappropriate and
she has accepted his apology.

The rebuttal of an insecure, but arrogant elitist. At least jps said I was
blind.

I saw Blitzer tossing softballs at Palin. Other than pimping for her
natural gas pipeline, all she was did was toss out the expected
political generalities and, of course, pour gasoline on her silly war
with David Letterman. You're entitled to think she was "sharp." You
thought George W. Bush was intellectually adequate to be president.

Sarah Palin is a cipher. But she talks some of the talk you boys like,
and she is anti-abortion. Your kinda gal. Your buds here in the
right-wing brain trust sure like her. That alone should give you pause.
