“Cheney ~~doesnâ€™t seem to know~~ has at times been intentionally obtuse about what branch the vice presidenct is under for pretty obviously self-serving reasons”

Fixed.

You know it is over when even the extreme right bloggers and posters don’t step up and defend her anymore.

roschelle: I’m not sure that’s a good argument. Cheney doesn’t seem to know what branch the vice presidenct is under either, and some people might argue that he’s qualified.

Of course it is. She’s being exposed as a hypocrite. Her glasses are one example:

She’s supposed to be ‘just an average hockey mom’ who puts Country First, but she can blow 600 bucks on designer IMPORTED glasses?

Palin on oil exports:

â€œOil and coal? Of course, itâ€™s a fungible commodity and they donâ€™t flag, you know, the molecules, where itâ€™s going and where itâ€™s not. But in the sense of the Congress today, they know that there are very, very hungry domestic markets that need that oil first,â€ Palin said. â€œSo, I believe that what Congress is going to do, also, is not to allow the export bans to such a degree that itâ€™s Americans that get stuck to holding the bag without the energy source that is produced here, pumped here. Itâ€™s got to flow into our domestic markets first.â€

What a train wreck she’s turning out to be. The McCain campaign has cancelled 8 events over the last day because she can’t even handle a simple town hall with prescreened supporters.

How can Ms. Palin be a credible candidate when she's not even sure what branch of the government the Vice Presidential post is categorized under?

Wish I was talking to the same people—I had a client today who was absolutely deluding himself about anything and everything to do with Palin. This is a smart man who owns his own company and is very successful, but he believes that Palin is a reformer, that she stopped the bridge to nowhere, blah, blah, blah….but the final straw was when he insisted there was no such thing as the Bush Doctrine before Charlie Gibson said. He is convinced that the phrase is completely made up then and it means nothing and was designed as a gotcha.

I still think there is a lot that Palin supporters can point to if they like her, but it is just astounding to me how they continue try and sell the person she isn’t.

But she can field dress a moose. Surely that’s a more important skill for a vice-presidential nominee to have than knowledge of geo-political affairs.

That’s what happens when presidential nominees pick someone with slightly more executive experience than yourself.
