Vanity Fair article on Sarah Palin

Free Lindsay Lohan

I tried to read that 'article' but it was pretty much a ridiclous premise. Seriously I have no idea why this woman is so popular with some or hated by others. Personally I really don't pay much attention to her but some here seem so obcessed with her that I am drawn in to see why.

Isn't the constant bashing of her basically giving her legitimacy in a way? The old adage that bad publicity is better than no publicity...

If you were a complete outsider who didn't know any of the history you would assume that she was a legitimate threat based on how much negative is written about her when she doesn't even hold an elected position?

It really seems to be an us vs. them thing with her. So long as she can align herself with the down trodden, simple, god fearing, middle Americans and rail against elitist, liberal, currently in power supporters - she's happy as a pig in slop! This really isn't about bringing the county together, it's about raising HER up!

To answer your question, yes, she appears to be legit on face value, but without intense scrutiny, all we would see is the "image" and not understand what's behind it. The star that shines brightest, burns the quickest. I just hope her star burns out before the country makes a mistake and elects her to run things. Unfortunately, there are a lot of folks who hear, "god, family, soldiers, no new taxes" and they stop right there. Those folks deserve exactly what they end up with.

Because they're so charismatic, they get a ton of slack from people. Might as well start working on her now, because most people adore Narcissists, and it takes a lot before they'll believe the truth about them. Remember, on the campaign trail, she got away with telling outright lies. McCain didn't.

LOL..What do you mean bashing? People are mainly just repeating the truth. You don't even need to really talk about anything subjective ( politics) to have good reasons why she shouldn't be President.

or maybe the negative things said are from people who can't understand why she gets any attention at all. she wouldn't be around to bash if some didn't' think she was worth talking about. the whole situation is bizarre-she has nothing of note to say, yet plenty of folks wait for her to say something.
