turn her low ratings into a referendum on her radical positions.

A majority of American's don't support Palin as VP=A majority of American's don't support Palin's unreasonable positions on women's rights, foreign policy, etc.

Let's not let her be a fluke pick. Let's let her become the poster politician of the modern Republican party.

1. She is a symptom of the GOP's biggest problem...
... and that is, that in Republican party, the shit floats on top. The worst among them get pushed to the front. W, Reagan, Quayle, Thomas, Palin.

2. I doubt people even know her positions.
Her interview answers have been so confusing, you can't tell what she is saying much less where she stands.

3. it really, really doesn't matter.
Whether she's seen as a complete incompetent or the face of the modern repuke party, is just not that important. And sorry, the Couric interviews have shown clearly that she's an uneducated idiot- no escaping that.

4. Actually, I'm sticking with her being dumb as a stump.
People understand that. Remember, we're the exception to the rule. American Idol is more popular than the presidential campaign.

5. I guess I mean more post-election
I just don't want future elections going back to the same 50/50 bullshit. Palin could sink the Republican ship, methinks.

6. Her dimwittedness is now just sinking in to the public's
consciousness. There's a whole month left for people to start realizing her policies and reacting to them. Many organizations have come out and condemned her policies but no one's talking about them yet. I guess it'll start after the debate tonight.

7. Her initial high ratings were a reflection of the Pubs' dimwittedness.
