re: #118 palomino
Palin’s problem is that you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression.
From the Couric and Gibson interviews to the Tina Fey impressions, the image of her as a silly lightweight is one she’ll have to shed (“I can see Russia from my house.”) If it were someone else, I’d say maybe they were up to the task of re-engineering their image. I don’t think she is.
And it doesn’t help that she gets into public squabbles with her daughter’s ex-boyfriend or runs around screaming about the “lamestream” media.
You’re not getting it.
The American people love stupid.
