I haven't heard Sarah say anything that has "hurt" her. She could say "the sky is blue" and the left will rise up in anger about that. They hate her because she is a threat, and they only thing they can do is try to make her look stupid. But, it is back firing. People are very interested in her and what she has to say.
Being an ex-motocrosser, when she said "she loves the smell of motorcycle exhaust" just reinforced her likability with me. It's those little things that can make a difference with people. It wasn't rehearsed, it wasn't "smooth", it was just REAL. I'd love to have a REAL person rather than a smooth politician leading this country.

Which planet do you live on? There has never been a public figure "rediculed" like she has been. To equate that to not being hateful is a complete denile and disconnect from the truth. The press admits they even attacked her tv show just for the shear enjoyment of doing so. She held no office, hasn't been more than a power broker for a couple years yet they act like she's passing laws and running the country. Misinformed and spreading it like honey.

Hungry voters are mad voters.
The mainstream press just plays a clip of what she said. When someone other than a Fox News reporter asks her a question, she usually gets the deer in the headlight look and then follows that up with a terrible answer. There's a reason why people can't stand Palin. It's not the media's fault.

Every time you open your mouth you make a fool of yourself. You get asked a hard question and you become like a deer in headlights. You ignore obvious truths and are too stupid to know better.

See how that rhetoric works on anyone, including you.

As for the political dunce meter:

I haven't seen a public figure as stupid as her. Denial is not just a river in Egype.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but keep in mind that it is just your opinion.

Egype? I'll bet Palin can spell it properly.

Yep, extremely...when the left (state owned media) twists those words to suit the need of the day.

No. I love women. Oprah, Naomi Wolf, Sharon Osbourne, and Stevie Nicks are awesome.
