I'm no fan of Palin but is a typo really the best argument you can make about her failings? If we went through the Twitter feed of just about anyone, you would find typos. Why not focus on her lack of depth on just about any issue, her over-reliance on talking points, or her vacuous performance in interviews? Picking on a typo just makes you look petty. Oh, come on.

Her PAC is raising a lot of money (and as far as I can tell, not really doling it out to lots of her targets), and that's what leads me to believe that she's pondering a primary run in 2012. Additionally, she's driven a lot by her handlers - the very people who would profit as campaign advisors and staffers should they push her to run. She may not have an expressed interest in running for the White House, but she is both malleable and in love with the spotlight.

It's already been made clear that she will never represent us in the White House. The fact is that she continues to terrify her opponents, and they can't seem to get her supporters to turn on her.

I hope and pray that they will all be willing to unite and focus on the basic premise that we need a smaller government, and that government needs to stay out of our lives. Everything else is pointless if we can't get past these two basic points. If we don't start winning in November ("winning" meaning getting Democrats out of office nationwide), we will not be able to undo the overwhelming damage to our economy and our personal freedom.
