Huck, thanks for the answer. Looks like it generated a lot of discussion.
Ask her, if the race in 2012 is between Palin and Obama, who would she vote for?
Then we know if there is hope or not. ;)
I did ask her. She said she'd stay home. It's funny, because every year I like to poll my in-laws, because they are such perfect samples of independent northeastern voters. Reagan Democrats, or whatever. Older, Catholic.
Anyway, the one thing I wanted to ask them about this year was Palin, and she brought it up before I ever brought up politics.
My take is that some people just plain don't like her. She's not my favorite idea of a president, but the landscape is pretty barren. Waiting to see what happens.
