Why I Support Sarah Palin

Who is most likely to run against Obama in 2012? A lot of people seem to think Mitt Romney might, and Romney's not unelectable. He might have a decent chance against Obama if the whole Mormon thing doesn't turn off the other Christians who don't think Mormonism is a legitimate religion. Interestingly enough though, while Romney might have a chance against Obama, he clearly isn't as popular as Palin among conservatives, and it looks like she could take the Republican nomination.

And let's all hope she does. What I delightful catastrofuck that would be. If you thought John McCain's campaign was a train wreck, wait 'til you see Palin's. I can't wait for the first debate between Palin and Obama! It'll be like that Kids in the Hall skit when Bruce McCulloch keeps picking a fight with this really huge guy and he knocks him out with one punch and he keeps getting back up again thinking he can really take him the next time around.

But what if she wins? Well, that would be a painful 4 years, but, in the long run, it might be the best possible scenario, because it would destroy the Republican Party forever. There was a time when we all thought that Bush couldn't discredit the Republicans any more than he did, but Palin is a whole new class of stupid. If we survive the nuclear winter that is the Palin presidency, maybe enough people will finally wake up and smell the fallout. Democrats have for too long stood in the way of letting conservatives experience first hand what happens when they get the government they really want.
