So Why Sarah Palin?

Here's an article where the guy takes on the "haters" of Sarah Palin.

To him and to her supporters, the rest of us don't want her for president because we hate her and by extension anyone's who's "normal." Normal as in average folks.

But really, how "normal" is Sarah Palin? She was governor of Alaska, the vice presidential candidate of the Republican party, she's a bestselling author of two books, a public speaker making a ton of money, she has a commentator position on a major news network, and her own reality TV show. Not exactly Murray across the street or Gwen at Goodwill.

If our standard in presidential candidates is just to find someone "normal" -- meaning, I guess, someone who doesn't know any more about life, the world, and issues than me -- why not just elect me? I'm a normal guy. And I know a lot of other normal folks I could get for my cabinet. It's only (supposedly) the most powerful job in the world, what could possibly go wrong?
