Palin’s opposition is Big Media, who hate her, not Obama nor any other single person. The majority of voters, who are morons, let’s face it, develop their opinions from television. She has to conquer that forum before she can get anywhere.
It’s not that she lacks the ideas...she just doesn’t have the rap down, if I can use a Sixties expression...

She is visibly in command of that 'forum' at present. She dismantled David Letterman (or possibly more correctly helped him do it to himself) with just three sentences. Should she allow herself to descend to the level of pop culture, she'll be no more than a female Huckabee.
