Sara Palin is such a joke. She just may fit into the the current American "reality tv" generation and those conservative (republicans in drag) minds as being the next great thing.
McCain was down and out and needed something to top running against a popular young "black" man. He and his advisers wanted to go for broke and to come up with something new, Palin.
What a disaster. She is a quitter (Governor) when things go too uncomfortable and has now decided to ride the backs of the conservative tea party wing, birthers, and other malcontents to further line her pockets by throwing out the same old conservative simple solutions to the most complex of problems.
I would more likely vote for Dolly Parton for President, as she has actually accomplished things in her life.
America has become the reality tv nation. Where the silliest, most ignorant all get their 15 minutes, and a few million dollars.
Is it any wonder so many conservatives look to Sara Palin. The average American don't know history, math, science and is too lazy to get off their asses and learn facts before they vote (let alone get off their asses and vote).
I will say one thing for Palin, at least she is willing to send her son off to wear the uniform (for her Political gain?). Better than most of the other conservative looney tunes (Limpball, Hannity, Beck, Levin, Galager, Cheney, and on and on) who never served in the military and then later in life wrapped themselves in promoting war and patriotism when they found they could make a buck doing it.
