Even if Obama wins, Sarah Palin is not going away

Having tasted the sweet nectar of power, the woman from Alaska with the insane, maniacal gleam in her eyes is not going away; she's just going to have her eye on 2012, when she figures she can take the White House back for the White People:

With his electoral prospects fading by the day, Senator John McCain has fallen out with his vice-presidential running mate about the direction of his White House campaign.

McCain has become alarmed about the fury unleashed by Sarah Palin, the moose-hunting “pitbull in lipstick”, against Senator Barack Obama. Cries of “terrorist” and “kill him” have accompanied the tirades by the governor of Alaska against the Democratic nominee at Republican rallies.

Palin, 44, has led the character attacks on Obama in the belief that McCain may be throwing away the election and her chance of becoming vice-president. Her supporters think that if the Republican ticket loses on November 4, she should run for president in 2012.

A leading Republican consultant said: “A lot of conservatives are grumbling about what a poor job McCain is doing. They are rolling their eyes and saying, ‘Yes, a miracle could happen, but at this rate it is all over’.

“Sarah Palin is no fool. She sees the same thing and wants to salvage what she can. She is positioning herself for the future. Her best days could be in front of her. She wants to look as though she was the fighter, the person with the spunk who was out there taking it to the Democrats.”

Let's face it, folks: George W. Bush is going to leave one hell of a mess for the next president to clean up. I don't know why anyone is surprised by this, it's just another empty hole he's drilled using other people's money and then moved on. It's the story of his life. But the reality is that an Obama victory next month, while necessary, is not the culmination of anything. It's only the beginning of the fight to keep this nation from returning to the Dark Ages represented by the lunatic Sarah Palin and her Armies of Jehovah. Because you know as sure as we're standing here, that as of November 5, Sarah Palin will be the frontrunner for 2012. And if there isn't significant improvement in people's lives by then, we could be faced with Governor Architect of the Apocalypse ready and waiting to take over and complete her mission to bring about her messiah's return.
