I think that Palin could easily be the 6th player on a basketball team and make significant contributions. However, I am not comfortable at this time and maybe never with her having a starting assignment.

I visualize the role of Palin as that of shooting darts at the Dems and keeping them on the defense. The Tea party people and others received Palin very well. The media attempted to counter her appearance by talking about her speaking fee even though she had said it would go for Tea Party expenses.

Palin knows (I hope) that the national media will never recognize her for her competencies as a Presidential contender. It's a shame that she would be treated in this manner but that's the way it is. It's not a male or female issue.

To defeat the Dems, the gloves have to be taken off. Biting, kicking, and choking is acceptable since these tactics are well known and used by the Dems. Chicago politics is tough. McCain equivalents do not stand a chance in today's environment.

The one thing that I liked about Brown was that he talked about issues and did not run on a Repub platform. That was smart in a state where registered Dems have a majority.

Why did they vote for him? They listened to what he said and then concluded that he was the best candidate. It's still true that the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
