Finally, it seems as if Republicans see Sarah Palin as someone they may like looking at, but not someone they would vote for, as a recent CBS poll indicates.
Only 33 percent believe that Sarah is qualified to take on the responsibilities of being President, as compared to 71 percent of GOPers who stated she was qualified, during the political campaign of 2008.
This is bad news for Sarah Palin, but good news for the nation at large and for the GOP, as were they to nominate her, a supremely ill qualified candidate to deal with the many domestic and foreign policy issues this country faces, they would surely lose the next election big time, and would be in worse shape than they are right now.Â
What Sarah Palin needs to do after she resigns on July 26 is take care of her family, including her special needs son, and take some time, if she wishes any future in politics at all below the Presidential level, to learn about what is going on in this world–that is, build up her knowledge base which is woefully inadequate, and also learn the English language (uneconomical is not a word LOL) and the agencies of government (there is no Department of Law–rather the Department of Justice LOL).
In other words, we do not want in high office a person who sounds like the average American who is ill informed and poorly spoken. We need someone to be a model for us, along the lines of …hmmmm….. Barack Obama! 🙂
"Uneconomical" – just happens to be a real word – Ron!

If you did a Google Search, you would have found many entries for this word: Uneconomical. Then what do you say to all the media people, from all the various news stations, who have used this word over the decades? And yes, even College Professors – just like you – have used this word. I do not read any criticism about these people. So, Mrs. Palin has used the correct variant and you owe her a written online apology.
Please remember that Mrs. Palin can speak to people without a teleprompter – Mr. Obama can not!
Bill
Ok, I stand corrected, Bill. I was not aware that "uneconomical" is a real word. However, when you point out that Sarah Palin does not need to use a teleprompter, I point out that President Obama CAN speak without a teleprompter but prefers to be precise in what he says, unlike George W. Bush who made a fool of himself often because he did NOT use a teleprompter LOL. And as far as Sarah Palin is concerned, she may not use a teleprompter, but NEEDS to do so in order to express herself in an intelligent manner, which she often fails to be! 🙂
