I have a feeling (just a feeling) that Ms. Palin was speaking someone else's words and was using a term that she didn't understand.

On the whole, I think Ms. Pailn is attempting to punch above her weight. American's love an underdog. They also love "the common man". I think many see Ms. Pailn as a latter day Mr. Smith, and she's ready to talk some plain sense to Washington. I would buy into that if I didn't get the feeling that everything she does is a calculated opportunity to increase her bank account (the fancy clothes during the campaign, leaving her governor seat so she could strike while the iron was hot and hit the speaking circuit).

I might be wrong on all of this, but from where I am sitting, the optics on Ms. Palin are not good.

You sure do think you're a complicated person, but in reality, you're quite simple, you duck and dodge, change subjects, anything to actually avoid debate or the topic at hand, anyone can see that based on your posts here, anytime you get stuck, you just go off with some more aceisms and try to get the topic off track, not complicated to see that at all.

I will give you one thing though, you are like Palin in one way, neither of you know when to zip the lip.
