She's In Love (with Herself)

From any objective perspective, when you are completely new in the national political arena, it is really unwise to introduce yourself with insults and sarcasm. Not only does it reek of immaturity and a deep lack of self-discipline, but it reflects poorly on your capacity to get along with others. Which in a democracy is sort of required.

Put simply: people in America don't like their public servants to be, well, sorry... dicks.

Now, modern-day Republicans don't care about these things. In fact, they love it if their public servants are dicks. But even the biggest one of all, Dick Cheney, kept his true jerkiness hidden until after the election. And dicks don't govern well. They are the reason why the last 8 years has brought cultural division, war, explosive debt and crumbling, well, you name it (businesses, schools, hospitals, homes, roads, reputation, rights, etc.).

But looking at the recent favorable/unfavorable movement for Palin, it's evident that independents and undecideds don't care for her self-impressed brand of chilly snottiness.

Asked by Hannity about Joe Biden, Palin says, "“I think he was first elected when I was like in second grade.”

I honestly don't think there's ever going to be enough lipstick for her.

Also: Palin has gone from not blinking when McCain asked her to be VP to now saying she had a family vote. But her son did not vote, since he's going to be in Iraq. Don't you like her even more now?

Also Also: One more thing about Fox. Why did Palin get the grand dining room from Clue for her interview but Obama got some creepy office? Coincidence?
