Palin's Looks Hurt GOP Ticket
A new study in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology --
summarized nicely by Tom Jacobs -- examines whether Alaska Gov. Sarah
Palin's sex appeal -- "the subject of endless media chatter in the weeks
after she joined the ticket -- hindered her ability to make the case she
was up for the job."
The bottom line: Participants who were more positive in their assessment
of Palin's attractiveness also "rated her far lower in terms of
competence, intelligence and capability, and were far less likely to
indicate they planned to vote for the McCain-Palin ticket."
The Los Angeles Times: "All of which would seem to suggest that for any
hope of success in 2012 or beyond, the 45-year-old governor needs to
whack off that hair, pork up a bit and get some cheap, baggy pantsuits
over at the Wasilla Wal-mart. And instead of that come-on wink that many
thought they liked, she'd do well to develop an uncontrollable facial
twitch."
Palin's intellect hurt her too.
