It's perfectly obvious what Sarah Palin is: an ambitious, ego-driven woman with a mediocre IQ and a high level of charisma who has discovered a personal gold mine. She is talk show/reality TV royalty; a mega multi-millionaire who travels the country via Lear jet with a big entourage that dotes on her, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars per hour to briefly show up at rallies and give stupid conservatives the impression that she is just a regular salt-of-the earth hockey mom who makes moose chili for her kids. Throw in a few "fellow patriots" and "ya knows" in there, and the low IQ section of America will just eat that all up. Who can blame her, really? It's a unique and useful talent. Gotta get that cash!
Meanwhile, her dysfunctional, low-achieving daughter and former irresponsible boyfriend have studied the business model well and are now on their way to becoming vapid reality TV celebrities themselves...living the American dream just like Momma Palin taught them.
The people who love Palin will continue to defend her. They're blindly loyal to her. I think they're mostly people who share her feelings of paranoia and insecurity. They're united by a feeling that the system is stacked against them. Knowledge doesn't matter to Palin, and it doesn't matter to her supporters either. It's her mediocrity that they believe is her greatest strength.
Isn't this the story of many when they become fascinated with someone or something. They can not see the faults..I think we see this with Obama as well. There are many who were or are so taken by him, he is their God and their only God.
Thank goodness most people can ride a middle ground.
How convenient to find people who would not openly talk about her!! Doesn't this say something about the people or that the magazine is full of it. Wouldn't waste my money on people who hide behind a pen.

I'd guess more like the kind of rehearsed facade of a Dog & Pony show on an aircraft carrier celebrating the accomplishment of nothing at great expense.
What's even more amazing is the number of people that will latch on to any negative narrative regarding Palin and wave it around as proof positive.
"Oh my God, she's a bad tipper! See how evil!"
"She has a temper! I knew there was something wrong with her"
'She's an ambitious, ego-driven woman with charisma'. (Replace 'woman' with 'man' and who does that describe?) I left out the 'mediocre IQ' since I've not seen reliable info.
She's also the single-most vilified, smeared female politician in history...and she's still standing. With a voice that's stronger than ever. With influence that can't be denied. If nothing else, I give her credit for having the fortitude and backbone to stand up, take it..and come out smiling.
Gross writes that people who know her well would not talk about her on the record, some out of loyalty others "because they fear she will exact revenge" as he put it. Some "political strategists, longtime Clinton friends and political associates, hotel staff, shopkeepers and hairstylists, and high-school friends of Chelsea's" dished about Hillary on the condition of anonymity. He wasn't able to talk with Hillary herself. It's not a flattering portrait of a woman who may very well want to be this country's next president.
I did. I'm "in the industry" so to speak. For weeks before anyone knew she was to be VP candidate right up to the Arizona Biltmore meltdown, fiasco the night of the election.

This is the one thing that disgusts me about City Data. People can just lie through their teeth and too many people believe them.
FYI, being a bad tipper and one to fly off the handle is the least of her problems. It's much more deep seated than that.
Do you mean something along the lines of letting an impressionable, young, twenty-something intern perform fellatio on her while performing the duties of the head of the free world?

There's a big difference between "performing the duties" and quitting, perhaps you should look into that.
