Frank Rich: Could She Reach the Top in 2012? You Betcha

What might bring down other politicians only seems to make her stronger: the malapropisms and gaffes, the cut-and-run half-term governorship, family scandals, shameless lying and rapacious self-merchandising. In an angry time when America’s experts and elites all seem to have failed, her amateurism and liabilities are badges of honor. She has turned fallibility into a formula for success.

On This Week, George  Will dismissed Sarah Palin as unprepared, uneducated, a quitter, & a mere celebrity (this time for her cameo on DWTS), predicting she wouldn't run for President, as if his smugly  saying so makes it so.  I laughed. With his Princeton Ph.D, Pulitzer, &  inside-the-Beltway arrogance, Will is almost  as much an enemy to Tea Partiers as Barack Obama. Frank Rich explains why.
