HuffPo: Did Economic Crisis Burst Palin's Media Bubble?

[Bucky]

It's so unfair! Now that everybody's talking about the so-called economy these days, no one's bothering to admire Sarah Palin for having a cool hunky husband* and a passing resemblence to Tina Fey.

* Not all of this post is sarcastic. Thug or not, Todd Palin really is a cool dude.

4. Maybe it reminds American voters that the world is actually a serious place and

only serious candidates should be considered. And someone who has to be sheltered from the press is not a serious VP candidate.

5. In what respect, Charlie?

that bubble was already deflating.

7. I think people on both sides of support

realize completely that Churchy Spice has no friggin' idea what's going on with the economy nor does she have any idea whatsoever how to fix it. It speaks volumes, IMHO, that even the MSM realizes that she isn't worth pursuing (albeit unsuccessfully as it would be) on this subject. One of the very few good things about this collapse is that it provided real-world context regarding not only where people will turn if the shit hits the fan - look at the economic approval ratings between McCrap (bad) and Obama (good) - but also that she is nothing more than a pathetic gimmick who deserves no attention when 'real' work needs to be done.
