Gene Schwimmer: Powerless Against Palin

*
In a commentary for American Thinker, Gene Schwimmer believes he has found the pathogen responsible for Palin Derangement Syndrome (PDS), a malady that mostly afflicts those on the political Left (although the symptoms of PDS are also seen in some in the GOP establishement):
What could possibly account for this borderline deranged venting of hellfire, this spewing of enough bile to float a battleship, enough gnashing of teeth to pay the college tuition -- all four years -- of the children of a whole battalion of cosmetic dentists? After all, it's not like Sarah Palin could actually be elected President of the United States or anything.

Or could she?

Of course, she could, or at least the people attacking her think so.

[...]

The Plan A dog (to reelect Obama) won't hunt in 2012, which leaves liberals with Plan B: dissuade the Republicans from nominating Palin in the first place. Throw everything, including the kitchen sink, at her. Blast her with every crack, every criticism, every accusation, no matter how absurd, how hysterical, how rabid and irrational, and hope something sticks. Sully her good name; taint her so badly in the public's eyes that Republicans won't dare nominate her.

Either that, or turn on the TV at noon, January 20, 2013 to see Barack Obama, out after one soon-to-be-forgotten term, standing on a platform in front of the White House -- and the entire world puts her left hand on the Bible, raises her right, and repeating after Chief Justice Roberts (or reading from her palm) says:

I, Sarah Louise Palin, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of the President of the United States...

  1. If Sarah Palin utters the words "I, Sarah Louise Palin, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of the President of the United States...", two things could happen. Liberals will either execute a mass suicide pack or they will embark on a mass exodus to Canada. Either way, it's a win-win for America.
