Of course Palin is more educated than Obama. She spent 8 years in college pursuing a 4 year degree in journalism. Take that, Obama!
She is certainly a Star. Can she get any worse and still think that highly of herself? Milking the fact that she did not abort that down syndrome baby of hers can't last forever. Tons of people have kept their babies. BIG DEAL.

Reason: implied language
I alwasy rememeber that mnay thoguht that truman was no corn pone ignorant farmer but history has judged him much different. At the same time JFK was thought of as genius but the picture is much different today on just what he was.Its funny that so many actually think he wrote those speeches and that abilty to speak well really means much. Really its lke listening to a good saleman only. Results count; the rest walks as history has shown.
You've got a point there. The ability to spell correctly is overrated.
She's simply demonstrating to her potential voters that she's just as sharp as GWB - it's the same demographic, isn't it?. For GWB voters, her statements only sound comfortingly familiar!
Surely you cannot fault the woman for using some strategery, can you?
It seems that most people get nervous in front of TV cameras, and some politicians are no different from the average person in this regard. But, when a politician speaks at length on a particular issue that they should be well versed on and then cannot demonstrate an in depth understanding of said issue I think we should render that politician to the most severe censure possible. On that note Sarah Palin has demonstrated her profound lacking and should gracefully bow out of the national political scene. Whether a candidate is from the Democratic party or Republican party I expect at a minimum that they can discuss the most complex issues of the day with confidence, I didn't vote for John McCain but I did admire his grasp of the more complex issues regarding our foreign policy, and his experience in DC put him far ahead of Mrs Palin who did him a great disservice by not bowing out. Let's not make this next election about bloopers, we will need to stay focused to be fair, I've been fair in my assessment of the Republican's choice of candidates and it wasn't her occasional slip ups that made me shun Sarah Palin.
I've seen some boneheaded comments but this one takes the cake. Looks like the true agenda of the tea party/far right is to keep being buddy-buddy with communist china and n. korea. Truly disgusting.
"Many observers have argued that Palin could never win because of her embarrassing lack of expertise, knowledge, or interest in foreign policy. Her appearance on Fox News host Glenn Beck’s radio show today, captured by Oliver Willis, suggests they may be right..."
Sarah Palin will never be president. I just don't understand the conversation
about it anymore.
Of course she won't, but it's about steering the conversation away from Obama.
