Xanthro and many others in this thread, seem to have made a cottage industry about excusing the behavior of Sarah Palin and demonizing anyone who opposes her election.
We are looking for insight into her demeanor, judgement, knowledge, and temperment. What's out there isn't very promising in trying to build a positive picture of her.
Intellectually, there isn't much there - undistinguished student taking 6 years to finish (did she?).
As for the punk who is pushing the Ayers crap, whoa. We haven't finished deciding whether or not the Clintons killed Vince Foster or the Bush administration orchestrated the 9/11 attacks!
If you are the type of voter who wants a Christian theocracy in the US, Palin is your girl. If you want a government that takes away a woman's right to her medical destiny/privacy, she's also the gal for that (castrating "undesireables" should be on the table).
Dealing with Putin, Chavez, and a general rise in anti-Americanism in the world, she's.... well not so much.
