Um...no?

When she appears, she draws more crowds than Biden and has since she
was selected.

That doens't seem to me to indicate they think of her as an "airhead".

And besides, who thinks that the left wing represents the majority of
the public?

Only you. :)



Biden wasn't selected to "draw crowds."


Biden was the first to say yes on the list of many who said no before
that reached Biden.



You've said this at least three times here, and you have nothing with

Palin attracts "the base," and very little more. The fact that 10,000

The question is does she have the chops to take over as POTUS is
McCain drops dead. The answer is...no.
