Sarah Palin's Future

A media honcho friend who was at the convention last night emailed to say he cringed through Sarah Palin's speech, and that "she should be on Jerry Springer."

Whatever you think of Palin, she's likely to remain on our national scene for another three decades. That's a very long time. She'll fill in the experience gap. Her following, already fervid, will only grow. And she may one day be our Margaret Thatcher.
