The conclusion:
The problem with Palin is that she’s not ready for the presidency. The promise of Palin is that she has plenty of time to prepare — if, that is, she and her fans will both accept the prudential virtue of patience. Sometimes progress requires a pause. And the perspicacity to use it productively.
pretty much tells us the story. They want her to succeed because the evil (i.e., liberals/left) hate her, but are pretty clear that they can’t sell her to the nation quite yet.
I pretty much ignore whatever American Spectator and similar mags have to say. They only exist as comfort food for the wingnuts.
