#1 This is rich. There are two very telling points here that put a spotlight on this writer's elitism.

1) Obama, with eloquence and brains. Oh really? I have seen no sign of either, have you?

2) Palin did not wear well in the last campaign, And I'm sure that she was the one running everything when she campaigned for President. Oh, what's that? She didn't run for President, but was VP on McCain's ticket? Gee, maybe it was McCain's campaign that had the problem, huh?

No, but then again I don't follow the NBA very closely. Is there more?

#4 Obama, with eloquence and brains.

Giggle. Try these on for size:

"No nation can or should dominate another."

"A united world defeated communism."

"We are the change we have been seeking."

"... the profit-to-earnings ratio..."

"I do not come here with a solution to the problem of war..."

#5 Quick quiz for the Obami: name one lapidary Obama phrase that sticks in your mind a la "we have nothing to fear but fear itself" or "ask not what your country can do for you..." or "Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall." Got anything? Even one?

Eloquence, my arse. The man's a towel boy for the Oligarchy.

#6 Palin is by all odds a threat to the more uptight Republican aspirants such as Mitt Romney and Tim Pawlenty -- and potentially, to Obama as well.

That the media misses and the Republicans are quietly realizing is the next President won't be selected by the Republican or Democrat Party.

It will be the choice of the Tea Party. And until that time comes, Dear Sarah seems perfectly happy to their humble un~~offical~~ spokesperson.
