More like afraid she won’t be able to beat Obama. I like her, but I think her unfavourables are too high. You only get one chance to make a first impression, and it’s unfortunate that the McCain campaign chose Couric and Gibson venue to do that. Also, the reality is that some people may not vote for her because she’s a woman.
I agree, though I love Palin. But I think the media has, very unfortunately, damaged her ‘image’ to the general population to such an extent that she could not be taken seriously. And Obama would win. And I’m saying this as someone who really likes her.
I don’t agree with all the avenues she has taken, I think she was far too overexposed for a while after she left the governorship. And a lot of people still do not understand why she did that. Her reality show, tabloid shenanigans with Bristol/Levi and some other silliness just added stokes to the fire that she is not a serious candidate.
Although I’m to the point where if Chuckles the Clown wanted to run against Obama, I’d be out there campaigning full-force for him!
Then don’t vote for her in the primaries! Simple!
Vote for the one you deem most electable and cut the crap!
Settle for less, but I won’t.
