That's why, as goofy as she sounded, Palin attracted so much interest.
She's real. *She's not a polished bureaucrat. *She's just a simple person

She wasn't intellectually curious, which disqualified her for high office
in my opinion. The woman didn't seem to know anything, and didn't seem to
want to learn. A simple person has no business in the White House or a
heartbeat away from it.

As much as I dislike Cheney, and I dislike him far more than I dislike
Bush, I never thought him intellectually lazy or not smart enough to be
POTUS if he had to take over. Well, actually, he did take over. *:)

Palin is not smart enough to be POTUS and she never will be.

But she has great appeal to a certain segment of the rightwing, for sure.

Cheney was Secretary of Defense for Reagan, I think I recall. *Or maybe it
was under Bush I.
Regardless, I seem to recall that he was held in high regard when he held
that position, even by those who didn't necessarily subscribe to the
Republican party's policies.
