I love how People think that Palin could not be VP because of an interview. She is lacking in foriegn policy, not a big deal she is the veep. Obama is lacking in foriegn policy too. All he has ever done is take a world tour where all he did was do what he does best... give speeches. Interviews have no bearing on how someone would do a the VP position. If McCain does keel over she will be more up to snuff by that point and she will have a Secretary of State. I really doupt that McCain is going to die in the next 4-8 years however.

People have been trying to find reason to dump on Palin since she was announced. Nothing was working, I mean did you notice the 3-4 articles on troopergate before the interview that were on CNN or MSNBC.com? The left media feels like the interview has discredited her, so they have backed off. Just wait, If she does really well in the debate (I think she will) it will all be back on. Right now the media is saving their ammo for if McCain starts to regain in the polls. Palin is a smart woman, she will do just fine in the debate. And since everyone has set the bar so low she will end up blowing away expectations. Which would backfire on the media. Because is they had not trashed her CC interview to the 9th degree the expectations would not be so low. What I am saying is the weak interview might help her in the end. We shall see.

 

It's hilarious how someone who claims to have such a high inteligence can defend the uberstupidity of Palin. Saturday Night Live didn't even have to change her sentences to have a great joke.
It's not just that one interview, it's the complete ignorance of everything outside Alaska that normal people call world.

For your information: a lot of Republicans are now also worried, that not only she'll mess it up for the GOP ticket, but also is a way too dangerous choice as the VP of a 72 year old. So yeah, people ARE worrying, because what you don't see in your blind support of the Republicans is that someone like her in the highest office will hurt the image of the US in the world even further (I don't think I have to tell you that under Bush that image, even among traditional allies, isn't exactly good).

 

 I really loved this quote I heard yesterday on CNN:

"If BS were currency, Palin could bail out Wall Street herself."
