Because they falsely blame her for ruining McCain's campaign. I personally blame the idiots that picked her, but that's just me.

She ain't like all others. Maybe you will never understand. The fact that she is different is what is appealing.

"Different is good," is bullshit. Different can be good. And it can be bad. Child molesters are "different," as are serial killers. You're right that Palin is different, but that's because most people who achieve political office at the level she just ran away from, are more informed about how government works. They do not think the Vice President can force the Senate to pass laws, they do not think being able to barely see a foreign country from an island off the coast of their state qualifies them as a foreign relations expert, and they do not think that the White House's fictitious "department of law" can unilaterally squelch investigations of a sitting president.
Palin is different in that she is vapidly stupid, shockingly ignorant, and further different in the fact that she glorifies and revels in that ignorant stupidity.
That's not the kind of difference the country needs. We already had that brand of different from 2000 to 2008. Why do you want to have it again, only to an even greater degree?
