Sarah Palin's mother-in-law may vote Obama.

WASILLA, Alaska - Sarah Palin's hometown rallied around her as mayor - now Republicans wonder if the rest of America will warm up to the surprise pick from cold country.

Though her mother-in-law has doubts.

Faye Palin admitted she enjoys hearing Barack Obama speak, and still hasn't decided which way she'll vote.

"We don't agree on everything. But I respect her passion," she said. "Being pro-life is who Sarah is."

...

"I'm not sure what she brings to the ticket other than she's a woman and a conservative. Well, she's a better speaker than McCain," Faye Palin said with a laugh. "People will say she hasn't been on the national scene long enough. But I believe she's a quick study."

1. The "quick study" remark says it all
Just picture a psychotic arch-conservative who supports every maniacal, short-sighted agenda typically ascribed to that group. There ya go. That's Sarah Palin. Study complete.

2. After reading this thread ...

I wonder how valid all those claims about "supporting" her really are.

The 90-80% approval rating was months ago; current numbers are running at 65% and falling.
