A couple of months out of the 2008 Presidential Election … Their guy won. They are convinced he’ll not only save the world but prevail into a second term and be begged by the masses in this country and across the Universe to stay and become King (a role George Washington turned down) … and the second half of the ‘losing ticket’ who was ‘not qualified to be POTUS (but was running for VPOTUS, duh) STILL bothers the living hell out of [them].

Could it be she’s a serious threat in 2012?

Unbearable Mama Grizzly clawing way to Oval Office

By Margery Eagan

Like a Nixonian Nanook of the North, Sarah Palin emerged from her igloo this week whining, griping, giving me an excuse to trash her again and you an excuse to call me unspeakable names in the comment section beneath this story online.

It’s a win-win all the way around!

This time, sympathetic and conservative talk show host John Ziegler interviewed Nanook (I stole that from Ground Zero of Palin hatin’, MSNBC) for a documentary on the 2008 race. As of yesterday, the nine-minute clip on YouTube had nearly 750,000 hits, proving that mama “grizzly,” as she called herself, remains irresistible.

We just can’t get enough. She’s like Elvis come back from the dead!

Anyway, looking radiant in her trademark rimless glasses and a pretty peach suit, Sarah Smile hid her simmering rage beneath cheerful “you betchas” while fricasseeing just about everybody - including the campaign staff of John McCain, the guy who made her career.

After some taken-aback blowback, however, she blamed even the sympathetic Ziegler for taking her remarks out of context.

That’s become a Palin trademark, too: “I’m everybody’s victim here.”

Asked why she didn’t answer Katie Couric’s question about her reading habits, Palin dissed Katie with a sly smile: “Katie, you’re not the center of everybody’s universe.”

Ouch.

Next up, Tina Fey, who “exploited” Palin’s family, Sarah said, particularly in stand-up, satirical bits on “Saturday Night Live” such as this: “I believe marriage is a sacred institution between two unwilling teenagers.” (I thought that was a riot.)

Then she went for Caroline Kennedy’s jugular, speculating that Caroline would be handled “with kid gloves” in the press because of the “class issue.” Her theory: Reporters prefer American royalty to those with hardscrabble, humble beginnings, like Palin. Or Barack Obama. Or Bill Clinton.

Oops! Guess the class issue doesn’t really work.

But give Sarah the benefit of doubt: Maybe she missed the media’s 180-degree turn on Caroline “um, you know” Kennedy. I, for one, thought both Kennedy and Palin terrific at first. Then, unfortunately, they opened their mouths.

Not to belabor the obvious, but Kennedy wants to be a U.S. senator, not a U.S. president, which, Palin told Zeigler, she’s ready to go for, despite the vast left-wing conspiracy out to get her.

But can you blame her? Once you’ve been east of Juneau, it’s tough to go back to Wasilla.

Forever.

But don’t fret, Palin-ites. You’ll have the last laugh - or next-to-last, anyway.

You betcha she wants to be president. Darn tootin’ she’s convinced she deserves it. Most of the people who select GOP nominees totally adore her - and despise reporters like me. No doubt she’ll come roaring back, guns blazin’, for 2012. She just can’t win.
