If you're one of the people who thinks that former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is dumb as a hunk of frozen tundra, and as dead-in-the-water as the last salmon she reeled in, time to remove the hook from your lip and get a grip.

I thought the show was excellent.

I can't imagine Al Gore, John Kerry, or Barack Obama as "real people". They are manufactured images who cannot laugh at themselves, cannot show weakness. Palin is like anyone else -- not perfect, but very real. And, when in front of a camera and being asked questions about policy, she "gets it".

A different kind of politician. I do not think the Democrats have anything to match her, in part because they fundamentally cannot be honest about who they are and what they believe.

You know, I’m just not convicned that other Moms will view cutting off fish heads and gutting them on a table as the same as baking cookies. Palin has some issues to deal with. You don’t have to ACT like a man to be taken seriously, Sarah.

and the show closes with Sarah wondering if the National Enquirer is closing in... and she wonders where Bristol is.
Nicely played Sarah and Bristol.
What I really want to see is Sarah shooting that rifle.

It was a pretty entertaining show. And the author is correct....Palin is both politically and media savvy...those are pretty good skills to have for a politician.

Sarah is not “acting like a man”. This is who she is. Personally, I have just a little love for the outdoors and nature. Can not imagine myself climbing a large hill, must less a mountain, unless I am in a car. But I can readily appreciate those with the guts to work with and tame nature for legitimate use by man. These people have as much claim indeed maybe more claim in what has made America.

LOL! Where do you live? I’m a recent transplant from the DC area and women in Wisconsin all know how to gut fish and some the occasional deer.

“You don’t have to ACT like a man to be taken seriously, Sarah.”

It doesn’t have anything to do with that. She doesn’t look like she is trying to prove anything to anyone in this show.

She didn’t start hunting and fishing and running marathons once she started to run for president.

"Iron Chef" is an international hit TV series, and those professional chefs have done far more gnarly things than merely butchering a few fish for dinner.

I don’t think cutting off fish heads is acting like a man - I respect all Moms - and every one of them is different in their own way.....

How on earth is gutting a fish looking like a man? In Manhattan, maybe, but there are plenty of women who know how to gut a fish.

All I know is I’d pay good money to see Barack and Michelle trying to climb a mountain. Now THAT would be some entertainment.
