If he had not been so skilled at doing so, and for such a remarkably extended period of time, this election would likely be over. <BR/><BR/>Thank God that it isn't.<BR/><BR/>With Palin's beliefs as they are (read more of Maher via link above), I am thankful Rasmussen data show she won't have her hand in nuclear matters - at least, not any time soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
