re: #27 Killgore Trout

Not really. Her fans like her the way she is. She’ll have no problem drawing crowds.

Swell, she can be the political equivalent of a monster truck.

Face it, the populace has a certain expectation for a national candidate. There’s a certain minimum intelligence required, and so far she has not demonstrated it on all issues. She does quite well on the ones she lists here, limited government, national defense and energy independence. She can be an asset, like a rock star or a monster truck. But, a candidate?

Sure, she can now spend more time studying, being tutored - by whom, exactly? I dunno. She needs to tour the lower 48, do some foreign trips, maybe go to Iran and kick Achmadinejad in the balls. She needs to cultivate the press, and good luck with that. She needs to build up her own posse of advisors and surrogates. Not to mention, find some big bucks, for herself and the party.

I hope she does it all, but there is a lot, to do.
