Joe,
Sarah palin doesn't possess the intelligence, confidence, toughness, or shredness that you want in the president.
We have seen her about 3 times without a script - and every time, she looked unsure of herself. Right or wrong, you never want a president who is unsure of herself. During her debate, she told america she would talk about what she wanted to talk about, and she did - delivering 90 second memorized speeches wach time.
With a script, she's a perfect candidate.
Without a script, she fumbles and rambles on, as she did with Couric and Gibson.
Joe, we don't want a president without this intelligence, confidence, toughness, or shredness. It's why you see so many lifetime republicans saying she's not ready. They're not traitors. Eagleberger was Bush's Sec of State - he's a fcking brilliant man. Powell is a brilliant man. They know the govt. And they are not libs. They are right when they say Palin isn't ready.
She's not ready, joe. She just isn't. 60% of americans believe she's not even ready to be Vice president.
