Why Palin Isn't Going Away
Ed Kilgore says to think twice about Palin's chances:
This base of support for Palin — maybe not that large, but very
passionate, and very powerful in places like the Iowa Republican
Caucuses — isn’t going to abandon her just because the Serious People
in the GOP laugh her off in favor of blow-dried flip-flopping pols like
Mitt Romney or blandly “electable” figures like Tim Pawlenty. To her
supporters, mockery is like nectar.
I don't disagree. But that is the reason why she is so dangerous to the Republican party. She is a kind of poison pill. If she becomes the leader of the national GOP, the wilderness they are now in will seem like an oasis.
