Right! Palin picked up her political philosophy by taking a poll of disaffected voters or by cobbling together ideas gathered on the streets. That’s why everyone agrees with her. All this guy needs to do is replay her speech from the convention or the earlier one when she was introduced as VP candidate to disprove his point. He could also have listened to any number of speeches she gave as governor or he could have read pieces she wrote as editorials before McCain chose her.
If this article reflects the level of scholarship needed to get published in the NYT, it proves they need a real editor that requires that thought be involved before submitting a piece.
I remember when McCain was searching for a candiate and we were mentioning names; a few freepers insisted on Sarah. Unfortunately, I don’t remember who they were.
