Honestly, why are you guys playing right into the establishment's hands with this crap? Part of Palin's appeal is that she is genuine. Who cares if she speaks with an accent? It's her message that counts. Her message speaks directly to the people.
The minute FReepers and other conservatives (Gingrich) start spewing nonsense about her needing to "brush up" on the issues or offer her some stupid six-point plan on what to do is the minute she's going to go downhill. Palin is her own person and is not shackled by the McCain flunkies who wanted her to act like this, dress like this, and only give interviews with pre-scripted soundbites.
Amen, brother! Seems like that there's an element on this board who won't be happy with Sarah until she goes to snob school.
