Palin: I quit Alaska governorship so that 'obstructionists wouldn't win'

Sarah Palin's passionate and repeated defense of talk show host Dr. Laura shows the former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate is "no longer fit to lead," prominent black conservatives say.

The Daily Beast's John Avlon interviewed black leaders in the Republican Party and conservative movement and found few willing to back Palin's defense of Laura Schlessinger, who announced this week she would be ending her long-running radio show after using the "n-word" 11 times during a debate with a caller.

2. Wow.
They must be pretty stupid. Using "no longer" implies that she was at one time fit to lead.

3. They're just now figuring this out?
Maybe they were blinded by her intellectual midget quitter status or something? Or the cool eye glasses?

I cannot figure it out - how ANYBODY would consider her fit to lead ANYTHING, unless maybe it's a line of ants toward a picnic blanket or something.

4. Just now they figured that out? Anyone who took that long is not fit to lead themselves.

13. She was never fit to lead...
...and these black Republicans were never smart enough to cross the streets by themselves, if this is what it took for them to see her shortcomings.

18. "Black Republicans"
Is that kind of like "Black Klansmen" or "Black Neo-Nazi Skinheads"?

Looks like Palin has bit them in the ass and now they're biting back.

Please pass the popcorn.
