Chris Matthews: "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" or even worse "Sarah Palin might be our next President!"

Clearly Chris Matthews does not keep up with the tabloids and gossip sites or he would be more aware of the information that MOST voters in this country are currently receiving about Sarah Palin and her family.

And yes he is right that fundamentalists Christians, those people who have been encouraged all of their lives to believe rather than to think, will most likely support Palin by the thousands.  However outside of that Biblical bubble she remains incredibly toxic.

Look Chris Matthews tends to be a very excitable guy. And yes Palin is somebody who causes a very visceral response from people. But the reason that MOST Americans pay any attention to her at all is not because they are seriously considering her as a leader to look up to, but rather because they see her as a sideshow freak who has wandered away from the circus tent and is now walking among the regular folk.

I mean sure among the Jerry Springer show participants, and the people who learn how to live their lives by watching reality shows on television, she must seem like their queen.  But among the Americans who really want the best for this country she is a cautionary tale used to illustrate just how stupid certain people are that a politician like her can garner ANY support at all.

The really amazing thing is that Chris Matthews and other political pundits don't seem to realize that she doesn't even WANT the job! 

Sarah Palin has no intention of really trying to win the presidency and running this country.  Are you kidding?  Do you know how HARD that job is?

She just wants to run for the job, and get the opportunity to stand in front of hand picked adoring fans, ride around in a campaign bus, and trot out her incredibly dysfunctional family for all of her crazed right wing supporters to admire. "Oh look Cletus! Both of her daughters are pregnant now!  And that older boy has that same crazy look in his eyes that your cousin Billy Bob had before he started strangling Gramma's chickens that last Fourth of July!  Ain't they just wonderful?"

Oh yeah Sarah will be right in her element up until people start taking the fun out of it by asking her "gotcha questions" and demanding that she "know things".  When that happens she will have to drop out because:

A) She decides that she can have more of an influence on this country without a title. (After all can a president get HIS kids on the cover of People magazine, US Weekly, The National Enquirer, and "Hot Poppin Mamas" all in the SAME week?  No I didn't think so!)

B) She quits to spend more time with her family. (Ha ha ha!  Sorry that one just cracks me up!)

C) God speaks to her and convinces her to start her own church, open to everybody except brown people, Democrats, and the "lame stream" media.  You know, only "real Amerikuns" allowed.

You just watch and see.  If Sarah Palin can even get to the first round of debates among the GOP contenders it will be nothing short of a miracle. But you know I kind of hope she does. I cannot think of a better night of television than watching the Republicans who have watched helplessly as she has done everything in he power to help destroy their party finally get the chance to rip her to shreds in front of the national media.

You know that reminds me, I need more popcorn.
