To the supporters of this women.....WTF ARE YOU THINKING?
She's an embarrassment to her family, country and gender and she's ruining it for other women who aspire to higher office.

When is one of the reporters or so called journalists going to say: "you don't make any sense on any level". I am actually begining to believe that Governors have no real duties, perform nothing and can be as dumb as a lump of playdo. To think people are equating her position to a complete understanding of the energy issues, foreign relations cause Russia is 20 miles away and can't name a newspaper she has read, thought of any legal issues that concern here, doesn't know how much oil is used in the U.S. In terms of evolution, which she denies exists, she is genetically related to a lump of mud.

I can't even watch it. It makes me cringe thinking about it. Does her mind go blank? Surely she knows something better to say then blah, blah, blah nothing. I mean does she? The evidence keeps mounting that she doesn't and I'm just... well speechless I guess.

If this is any indication, how could she possibly do well in the debate? She can't answer a question well. She can't even respond to a question well. All she can do is give a speech to the converted. This is astounding. It's a sad day when the best thing you can say about a candidacy is that it made Dan Quayle feel a little smarter.

Good grief. I took me about 30 seconds to come up with two decisions I don't agree with: (1) Dred Scott (2) the recent eminent domain decision, though I can't name that case by the parties involved ("A vs. B"). First one isn't even remotely controversial; second one might be. And I'm no great history maven, either.

my immediate thought was 'Brown vs the Board of Education'.......maybe Sarah didn't learn that one in school.
Oops....Couric's question was 'which you disagree with.'

The eminent domain case I believe you are referring to is Kelo v. City of New London (2005)
Actually, I don't like the Supreme Court decision Nix v. Hedden (1893) which declared Tomato as a vegetable. It is a fruit, gawdamnit!! (it is actually a berry)

If Palin performs well in the debate, it might make the public wonder if she'd been deceiving them before that.
In her Couric and Gibson interviews, she sounded like Miss Teen South Carolina did last year. She does not answer any question directly, and the voters don't like to have someone blowing smoke up its ass once suspicion has been aroused.
I'm afraid that we might wind up having to give Couric credit, just for conducting the interview. That would be after the election, if it goes as it should go.
Loved what SNL did last Saturday--showed a split-screen & Palin's own words.

OK, now Palin is painfully embarrassing. What were Alaskans thinking when they voted this nimwit for Governor. D'oh!
grandma
· 1 year ago
ANCHORAGE — When Gov. Sarah Palin meets Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr. on Thursday in the vice-presidential debate, even her fellow Alaskans might hear for the first time some of her views on health care reform, education policy and other issues of state government.
So, I guess Alaska is the "Alabama" of the Pacific Northwest?
moreleesafer

I've said it many times here..."YES". My impression of Wasilla inhabitants are that they are folks who moved there from Alabama because they thought that silly law keeping you from marrying your sister was WAY to strict.
Frankly, I am not surprised at all that she couldn't even name a single case other than Roe v. Wade or that she could not name a periodical which she has read. The Wasillans are not exactly literate folk, as a whole. One of the very few intelligent conversations I had with people in town was with the local librarian....whom Palin tried to have fired for not banning books.
They are very closed minded.

Her voice, her voice! Not only is she immensely stupid on a national scale, that nasal whine couldn't get her a comedy as a Nanny. She appears to think a state should decide everything, in which case the Supreme Court would be useless. I guess she doesn't want a UNITED States (so why is she running for a VP position...just stay the inept Governor of a state that has less people than Los Angeles or New York) or she doesn't want anyone--or thing--higher than her bouffant to make decisions she doesn't agree with. She is an airhead...I don't care how much her parents like her. And she kinda let slip her reason for charging for rape kits.

She's eternally stuck in beauty pageant mode. She's more concerned about how she 'looks' answering the questions than she is about the actual words in her answers.

I'll answer some for her, Hamdan v. Rumsfeld and from the last session.. Kennedy v. Lousiana which stopped the execution for child rape. Those are two ones that she can throw to the right wing..
She isn't ready for prime time, or even Saturday Night LIve. I think a McCain/Fey ticket is more plausible.
She truly doesn't know, and slogans and rehash talking points can't cover it up..

Does anyone get that her answers are just really spun versions of how a neophyte pagent contestant answers questions? She gives these repetitious non-answers. As smart as the punditocracy claim her to be based on her ascent from nowhere to governor of Alaska; I wonder - if it wasn't Alaska if this woman wouldn't have been chewed up and spit out if she were competing in a more populous state like Michigan or Ohio or Connecticut...if her interviews are evidence of anything, perhaps it shows (through lack) that her talents lie more in the area of political acumen and that she is merely a right-wing Xtianist hack who is driven by devotion to ideology rather than any real intellect? I just hope she continues to do more damage to the Rethuglican Brand and McCain and Palin are merely a footnote to history in November.
