I would not believe it if I hadn’t seen her take questions and read transcripts of her interviews.
Unfortunately, it is not difficult at all to believe she was clueless about Africa. Don’t forget that she couldn’t speak intelligently about a single Supreme Court case. She couldn’t name a newspaper she reads. When asked about the bailout and other important issues, her responses were not just subpar; they were incoherent.
She should never have been chosen in the first place. Surely there are brilliant, educated, and articulate conservatives out there. Surely you can’t believe that she is the best option for 2012.
I am glad that FOX is exposing the gaps in her knowledge, because she needs to be decidedly out of the running for 2012. If this mistake is repeated, conservatives will deserve the electoral drubbing they will receive...again.
