		<description>Why, yes, Marianne, they are:  Consider the big kerfuffle made of Condoleeza Rice&#039;s &quot;failure&quot; to endorse McCain, while other ex-Secretaries of State endorsed Barry-O.   Of course she couldn&#039;t!  But that didn&#039;t stop the media from trying to make that a &quot;big deal&quot;.

Sigh.  Journalists are highly skilled at being, well, just journalists.  And not much else.

Sigh.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with you, Joe C on the ticket for 2012.  Although being an old fashioned liberated female, I might prefer Petraeus/Palin, which would give her some time at the elbow of a fine, principled, yet wily man [think Ulysses] to learn on the job.,so to speak.  But she is a rare and genuine political talent, which is why the Democrats are so afraid of her they had to disgrace themselves trying to destroy her.

By the way, are the civilian pundits so ignorant that they don&#039;t realize that serving military personnel, even Generals, can&#039;t make political statements of intention as long as they are in service?  Sheesh!

		<description>My Lord,
She claims on her blog that she is a &quot;progressive republican&quot;.    Just like her old man.

No wonder they don&#039;t get the general malaise and lack of satisfaction from their erstwhile constituents.  Losers.</description>
