It was more what came after the election that really put her off (and put what happened during the election in a new light). She's come around to the view that those critical of her intelligence (and temperament) were, ultimately, right.<br /><br />In the end, I seriously doubt that she would actually vote for Obama, but I moreso doubt she would vote for Palin (unless a whole lot happens between now and 2012). More likely she would simply write in the name of someone she wishes were running.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-67369016974618146102011-03-25T21:26:32.128-04:002011-03-25T21:26:32.128-04:00Trumwill: just out of curiosity, does Clancy disl...Trumwill: just out of curiosity, does Clancy dislike Palin for being really conservative or for NOT being especially conservative?

Not just with the liberals, but with middle America and a lot of conservatives (my wife has never voted for a Democrat, but she says she really might if Palin were the GOP nominee).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29763791.post-14574298683156181702011-03-24T10:12:29.417-04:002011-03-24T10:12:29.417-04:00a politician we like only for having obnoxious ene...<i>a politician we like only for having obnoxious enemies, not for any articulated policies.</i><br /><br />Very good point: I think that is exactly her appeal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
