I myself have compared Sarah Palin to lightning in a bottle and called her the love child of Theodore Roosevelt out of Annie Oakley. But offerings of praise for an authentic conservative talent who knows how to outmaneuver the PR Masters of Disaster who work as JournoListers now, who is honest and actually raised an intact family while pursuing a career in politics cannot remotely be characterized as the insane hero-worship that MSM drones deliberately attached to an empty suit with a Harvard diploma (earned how honestly, honestly?) because his agenda mirrored their own very Prog/Red/Stalinist values.
People who read this board know very well that enthusiasm for a politician or author doesn't long survive a swing to the left or the beginnings of a "glide path to the White House" that typifies canny triangulators as they depart from lifetime positions in a search for "electability" to high office.
Examples of conservatives who've done this include John McCain, Orrin Hatch, and now John Thune.
Unfortunately, Ann has jumped the shark.
