Sarah Palin – Republican Vice Presidential candidate, anti-abortionist, gay-hating, pro-guns, creationist, and fully paid-up religious nutcase – is apparently going to be the Republican’s Presidential candidate for the next US Presidential election in 2012, since they have already decided that they have lost this one.

While I’m glad that even they think that Obama is going to win on November 4th, I find the very concept of Palin as President horrifying.

The Republicans used to be an enlightened party, now they’re far more a subsidiary of the “Christian Right” – which is neither – than an intelligent political party.

If Palin is the Republican candidate for 2012, this will be another time when I simply cannot support them. No matter what the Democrats might do or say, nothing is worse than the disgusting values that Palin espouses and has come to represent.

Sarah Palin may not be of Washington, but she is worse. Far worse. Everything she is, says, and does shows this. She is everything that is the matter with American politics. She is a symptom, not a cure. She is part of the disease.
