Sarah Palin paved the way for more crazy

... God showed Sarah the door.

In breaking the news of her departure from the political stage, the Fox-made millionaire trotted out her family again, declaring that she decided not to run out of respect for them.

Uh-huh... and out of respect for polls showing that only 21-percent of Americans have a favorable opinion of her. Also — get this — three-fourths of Republican primary voters said they did not want her in the GOP presidential race!

But let's give her credit. Yes, she's shown herself to be an incoherent, frighteningly unqualified, and far-out political figure, but without her, the door would not have opened for Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry, and other incoherent, frighteningly unqualified, and far-out Republican contenders. ...

And that is the main reason she is so dangerous, even now. She gave a pretty face to the crazy and now it has enabled other "pretty faces" to get their crazy on. She needs to be utterly humiliated and shown up for all to see, not just the ones already awake. As long as she has one supporter, she is too powerful.

anon@7:37, There may be nothing that would make her go to her room and stay there. She even uses babygate for sympathy. She'll probably live at least another 30 yrs. Does anyone want to follow her the rest of her life?
