Ann sees the problem, but I think there is another important portion to the solution.
The MSM succeeded in "Quayle-ing" Gov. Palin all the while pitching softballs to Obama. That is a deep hole to dig out of. Even this morning George Stephanopolous was pitching softballs at Obama. The last question wasn't "What do you think your biggest challenge is going to be?" It was "When are you going to get a dog, and what breed is it going to be?"
Here is my suggestion on De-Quayling the Governor. She needs to pick one or two topics and get out on the talking head shows. What MSM show would turn down Sarah Palin if they were having a Sunday morning discussion on energy policy or fiscal restraint/the buget crisis faced by a lot of states. Let her get out there to put forth the conservative agenda. When the left starts calling her crazy or dangerous she will know she succeeded.
Good idea!
