I wonder sometimes how much of the "hick talk" is a put on. Some of it certainly is....not to say that dropping her g's and using terminology such as the word "holler" isn't natural for her, but somewhere along the line she probably learned to speak properly. Even Tier 4 colleges have English classes. And she was a broadcast journalist, albeit for a very short time.

She's probably been told by her trainers to act "folksy" to attract the "real people" or some such.

lol- well the folksy- tobacco spitting thing worked for Bush at Yale (lol- as Maureen Dowd wrote in Bushworld) I dont think Palin would look nice spitting tobacco, but I bet she would do it if McSame asked her to.....

I think many of us are sick of hearing the bleeding heart liberals tear apart someone they don't even know or have even made an effort to find out anything about her except the slanted propaganda. Some of you seem obsessed with this issue. Once this election is over I wonder who else will be torn apart in the hen house.

You've beat this horse to death.

I think ..."It'd be fun y'all"....I am just sick of this womans shallow attitude and general emptiness. This isn't 1985 and everyone accepts banality.

Ready to serve Freedom Fries maybe.

In my mind, a maverick conjures up some wild, trigger-happy act-before-you-think type of person. Let's get some intelligent, thinking people in office!
Yes, that could be a challenge, I would like someone who actually read some literature, and didnt spend college playing sports. I dont give a f--- what sports they played 20 years ago, I do care how their mind works, when Iran or someone wants to bomb us, I dont want to hear about how some idiot was a point guard.

If she needs power, maybe she can just get a manager job at Kroger

Save the rest of us from this mediocrity.

And she is trying to be VP of a first world nation, this is not a dead horse, except to die-hard McSame supporters.

I have real issues with her stand on many of the issues I care about and I'm getting my information straight from Palin herself, I don't find that to be slanted.
