"...like a hubcap that keeps rolling down the road after a collision.."
Paraphrasing Republican strategist, Mike Murphy, this morning on Scarborough Show, in describing Sarah Palin. I thought it was an hilarious analogy.

Also, he made a good point that "more is less".

People have seen too much of her already. If she had gone back to Alaska and focused on her job as Governor, then she would have been much more popular when she came back, at least in some folks eyes. She is a camera hog - to her detriment. She is no longer in demand.

2. If she really wanted to rehabilitate her reputation
she would have gone back to Alaska and seriously tried to get back to Governing.

She needs to build her reputation as a serious person, not as this unsophisticated clueless ingenue.

I don't understand how anything she is saying is supposed to get us to imagine that she should be wielding any power at all. It just makes her look pathetic.

3. But in her mind there is nothing to rehabilitate.
She is a perfect example of a delusional narcissist. Nothing is ever their fault and they believe they are the very embodiment of perfection.
