Whatever. At first like most I thought she was a good choice but under scrutiny she just doesn’t have any credibility. I understand the logic here with the choice of a woman but consider McCain didn’t exactly excite too many Republicans much less voters generally. Therefore people turned more to the vp pick and she came under a lot of examination and she just didn’t have the ‘credentials’ to stand up to scrutiny. Sorry but those are the facts.

Having no credibility means that you have no or little support within your own ranks. Zipporah, Sarah is now supported by 91% of Republicans. Even if Rasmussen is off by 10 points, 80% support, after losing an election is still phenomenal. Numbers are numbers, facts are facts. Sarah has credibility with the people she needs to have crediblity with now. She has 4 years to gain more credibility with the American people as a whole. 4 years is a very long time in politics.

"Whatever," to coin a phrase. The actual "facts," of course -- as have already been widely reported throughout all objective media, both print and electronic -- are that it was Sarah Palin, rather than RINO-annointed-and-approved McCain, who routinely drew crowds of 70 and 80 thousand, wherever she went on behalf of the ticket; and that it was only the presence of Sarah Palin on said ticket that prevented "Squish" McCain from suffering an electoral ass-kicking of Mondale-esque proportions.

Reality can be your friend, rather than your enemy. Learn to make it work for you.
