From the Daily Telegraph:
The problem for Rick is that his stout words are in severe danger of being eclipsed by an even finer speech by Sarah Palin at Indianola, Iowa. (Thanks to Richard North for drawing it to my attention). It was so inspirational, so true that it prompted even her traditional enemy the New York Times to ask:
Is there a hint of a political breakthrough hiding in there?
I think there is. I think if she goes on like this, all bets for Perry, Bachmann, Paul are off. I think President Palin might just be the only game in town….
It’s those last remarks, I think, which could prove the game changer. In the past Palin’s opponents have found it all too easy to pigeonhole her as a right-wing fringe candidate, far too loopy to connect with mainstream America. But here she has found a universal narrative, of potential appeal to voters on both sides of the political divide. Whether we’re on the left or the right it really makes no difference: we’re ALL being shafted by a system over which we have little if any democratic control.
