“and if Sarah Palin is elected his head will explode.”
I think you need to revisit Kristol’s stance on Palin.
Kristol was an early and outspoken supporter of Sarah during the 2008 campaign.
I saw him on the news shows just this morning refusing to bad-mouth Sarah, despite a kind of stuttering bully-job by the dumb-@ss John Heilman who wanted Kristol to denounce the hate-spewing Republicans, a la Sarah.
Kristol said he thought that after SP left the governorship she had a great opportunity to outline some fresh international & domestic policies which he was eager for but that she had ‘disappointed’ him somewhat by not doing so as effectively as she might have.
But he added that she is young and very smart and that there are still plenty of elections ahead of her.
Kristol isn’t a movement conservative but he has battled hard on some movement issues and he hasn’t run from Sarah or turned on her, which is more than most of the national Republicans can say.
