A Face in the Crowd. Andy Griffith.

Just took a quick view of it.

I do think that in Palin’s case it is more the beauty queen and the need for attention that shapes the nature of her presentation (or “message”). The idea of being a callous manipulator of audiences (as in that movie) plays a role, but I do think Palin believes more of the stuff that she spouts, because she has to.
