Sarah Palin, or, WTF?

Here's my two cents on Sarah Palin:

The Republicans are mistaken if they believe that 18 million Democrats are going to jump parties to vote for a major ticket with a woman on it, merely because there is a woman on it.

Democrats who supported Hillary Clinton, really, really loved Hillary Clinton. It is more about her cult of personality at this point.

Governor Palin might be a rogue wheel in Alaska, and her popularity might be 80%, but they have like what, 4 people living there? She is going to find that the big party machine's leash is very short and very tight, and John McCain is not going to tolerate being upstaged. Neither is Mrs. McCain.

Joe Biden will crush her in debate. Having Russia live next door to you is not enough to call yourself an expert on foreign policy. That's like saying me living next door to Roland makes me a radiologist.

At least Olbermann will be hilarious for the next 66 nights.
