How can ANYONE present themselves as qualified when they must be kept hidden from the press? That alone disqualifies Palin, and it's only the tip of the iceberg. I agree that she is "so much more than an ignoramous. ...."  (thank you KarlaElisa, 10/11/2008). The truly  dangerous public officials are those who see themselves as  wise, well informed and ready to serve the public, when they are anything but.

My biggest fear was that there would not be enough time before the election for the public to see through the embarrassing "gee whiz,.... guys and gals...... you betcha" crap. I'm relieved to see it happening.

Now someone should tell her to let her children be children, and stop trotting them out as visual  character references, Seems borderline child abuse to ask a pregnant teenage to stand, wave, and smile at oceans of strange faces, over and over again.Her lack of judgment is astounding and frightening..We NEED women in politics, but gender alone isn't enough to qualify anyone.

Oh but she is so much more than an ignoramus. She's downright dangerous and if ANYTHING happens to Obama she is the person I will hold accountable.

She has NO substance, no brains, no decent command of the english language and is about the snottiest witch I've ever witnessed in modern day politicking.

Can't wait for her career to nowhere to finally drop off the face of the earth.
