Conservative Brooks rips into Palin: "a joke", "potential talk show host"

Appearing on ABC's "This Week", conservative columnist David Brooks tore into Sarah Palin on the eve of her book release:

"She's a joke. I mean, I just can't take her seriously. We have got serious problems in the country. Barack Obama is trying to handle war. We just had a guy elected Virginia governor who is probably the model for future of the Republican Party, Bob McDonnell: Pretty serious guy, pragmatic, calm, kind of boring. The idea that this potential talk show host is considered seriously for the Republican nomination, believe me, it will never happen. Republican primary voters are just not going to elect a talk show host."
