 As far as I have seen, Palin appeals only to the basest of the base, and  
 if McCain loses, her selection will be listed as one of the significant  
 reasons. The majority of the public thinks she is an empty-headed  
 opportunist. 
 
 
 
 
It may be the way you see it, but be prepared for a possible (but remote)  
surprise. 
Politically, you do not represent the average "Joe SixPack" citizen. 
 
Unless Obama stumbles it appears he's on his way, but.... 
 
McCain's current strong suit is the popularity of airhead Palin and now Joe  
the Plumber.  He's also getting some points for his "speech" at the  
traditional Al Smith Memorial Dinner and his recent, delayed appearance on  
Letterman's show where he completely disarmed Letterman by simply saying, "I  
screwed up".    People relate and appreciate this type of personality and  
the media is helping, unknowingly. 
 
The backlash created by the attention and criticism the Dems are giving to  
both Palin and the Plumber may bite them in the rear. 
 
BTW ... in case you missed it .... Palin will appear on SNL  tonight.  
Watch the polls swing slightly towards McCain again.
