Mitt Romney got good news and bad news yesterday from Sarah Palin. On the plus side, she said she wasn't sure he's "conservative" enough to merit the Republican presidential nomination, and I think that's the good part. Because, to me, she's the empty skirt that cost John McCain the election last time around and she's also ninety-nine percent noise and one percent proven performer herself. Therefore, not having her in your corner's a plus.
On the negative side, despite my poor opinion of her and the fact that she has no real accomplishments or credentials, there are plenty of folks who really like her, which means she'll have significant influence over those sheep. And that, of course, weakens Romney who's the only one with any kind of chance of beating the incumbent next November.
So, once again, in Palin we have someone who'd rather pick up a cleaver and slice her own nose off to spite her face by questioning whether someone meets her standards, than to simply take the best shot at winning a general election.
And the worst part of her self-serving, ridiculous statements is that conservatives will surely vote for Romney, regardless, should he win the nomination. However, if he were more rigid, independents wouldn't, and they're the ones who are needed most. Consequently, as I've said many times before, positions like her's are likely going to cost Republicans the next presidential election which to me seems light years beyond merely stupid.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
