I wonder how many were Mormons because this behavior sounds very typical for spiteful Mormons who are known for being gossip mongers!
http://wonkette.com/404240/sarah-palin- ... ney-peopleFOX News Channel reported Wednesday that some staffers intentionally leaked negative information to the media about Palin in the final hours of the campaign that painted the Alaska governor as naïve, incompetent, and needy. And my sources said that all of those leaks came from the Romney faction of the McCain campaign.
…[R]egardless of a McCain win or loss, Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016. And that made her a threat to a possible second run by Romney. You do the math.

I can't believe people actually think she'd be a "serious contender for the Republican nomination." The best thing that could happen for the Democrats is for the Republican Party to seriously consider her.

I agree. by the way, other news reports say that the quiz show "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?," currently on hiatus, will be coming back revamped as "Are You Smarter Than Sarah Palin?"

Sarah Palin is not a serious contender now, but she could be if she makes the right choices. As for her intelligence, Judge Judy was right on the mark when she said that those who question her intelligence are themselves lacking in intelligence.

And we all know how seriously the world should take Judge Judy.
Wow... I have to do a complete 180 on my view of Palin, given this endorsement.

Sounds like a fool-proof test, indeed!

I think Sarah Palin could probably become a serious contender if she would crack open a few books, read some newspapers, and, in general, just start paying attention to what's going on around the world and in our country - what the issues are, who are the major players, what they believe, etc. And I'm not talking about listening to Rush Limbaugh either.
Do this for a few years and she might have something to say.

Yes, they are nothing like the upright Huckabee.

She may be too busy reading the Bible and John Birch literature. It's difficult to keep up with it all.

Sounds self-defeating for Romney supporters. Palin would be useful against the inevitable run of a Huckabee-type person every time Romney runs.
