Undefined, because they do not KNOW her. They've only HEARD about her, from sources with an anti-Palin agenda. I expect that will change once they get the opportunity to see her in action.
I think the Republican establishment fears her as much as the left does, because she cleaned up corruption within her own party in AK and may do the same to them. That needs to be emphasized, to help pull in independents.
Until a viable Conservative Party exists, we are stuck as Pubs; so I want a thorough house cleaning in the party. Sarah's just the person to do it!
Absolutely correct...and THIS is exactly the reason the MSM is desperate to define her on their terms.
Once she is out and speaking directly to all, a lot of the people who "don't like" her now will find out that she's genuine, capable, funny, and principled. She does NOT fit the stereotype of the starchy, stuck-up "typical" Repub which the left has managed to define for decades. The media is terrified of that.
