The pansies at Politico forget Sarah had a career in broadcasting before she ever got into politics.

Before I say this, I tell you that I do support Sarah Palin.

The reason she didn't make it in broadcasting is because of her regional accent that she appears to be unwilling to change.

In politics, however, I do not think the regional accent hurts her.

After all, LBJ, Kennedy, Carter and Clinton all got elected.

Whatever gave you the notion that she didn’t make it in broadcasting?

She simply advanced beyond broadcasting because of her natural knack for politics.

If Sarch Palin took elocution lessons to remove any perceived accent problems, then she would be following a historical precedent.

Margaret Thatcher had a Grantham accent that could kill at ten paces, until she had it ‘elocuted’ away.
