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.

Palin attracts "the base," and very little more. The fact that 10,000 or
15,000 of "the base" show up to watch Palin slam the Democrats doesn't
mean she is attracting more than "the base." Her negatives are higher
than her positives.

It ensures that they will show up to vote rather than stay at home.

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


Nobody thought Turman had the chops to take over, FDR treated him like a
mushroom.
