Re “Palin Resigning Governor’s Job; Future Unclear” (front page, July 4):

If it had not been for the wisdom of the electorate and a bit of luck, the inept and rambling Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska could have been our nation’s second-in-command to the septuagenarian Senator John McCain and a single heartbeat away from assuming the presidency.

Note from KBJ: As opposed to the inept and rambling vice president we actually have? Where does the New York Times get these people?
