I can safely tell you I don't hate the woman. If anything, I felt a bit sorry for her because I think she was little more then a political ploy that went terribly wrong for the Republican party. She was obviously not prepared at the time to be running on the platform she was. She might surprise a lot of people if in fact she does run this time around, and is prepared. But I just cannot see it being successful, unless the Dems really screw up big time before then.
