I'm starting to feel sorry for her and her family. She probably is a real nice person. But her lack of ability to answer ANY question bothers me. When the rare opportunity comes and she can have some input on something she's been asked, HER EGO EXPLODES. It's written all over her face. Looking at the reporters as if they are the dumb ass.
never trust anyone that claims that being in MENSA gives them a better understanding of the issues. If you were really that intelligent, you would know IQ has little to do with applied intelligence.
BTW, I've met people in MENSA. I am not impressed.
Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska on Wednesday became the nation's most prominent Republican officeholder to publicly question whether Sarah Palin has the experience to serve as president.
"She doesn't have any foreign policy credentials," Hagel said. "You get a passport for the first time in your life last year? I mean, I don't know what you can say. You can't say anything."
"I think it's a stretch to, in any way, to say that she's got the experience to be president of the United States"
I am an independent college educated female member of Mensa (if anyone knows what that is)..She is extremely bright...Most people do not even know how to recognize true intelligence because they don't exercise their own enough.

Hi !, Oreo : )... Just wanted to say that [my scepticism in re Mensa membership being a "particularly clear indication of anything" notwithstanding :)] I REALLY LIKED your absolutely "spot on !" assessment of Governor Sarah Palin's most impressive clarity of intellect [a really genuine alacrity and perceptiveness of mind !] that showed itself particularly well [more than ever before, in the 3 weeks since her intro as the Repub.

These eminently reasonable insights, on the various economic and political questions asked, simply FLOWED so very effortlessly [from this "dumb" woman, who we're supposed to be so terribly "scared" of :)], and with such absolute crystal clarity, and with some really MAJOR self-confidence, and force of dialectic, which [Sorry, "Obamobots" :)] simply CAN'T "be learned by rote", no matter HOW long a particular candidate may be involved in various "studying up" preparation exercises [will continue]
Before continuing with my [entirely supportive ! :)] additions to Oreo's most astute observations, on how clearly and obviously "bright" [and "then some !", actually, in my opinion] Governor Sarah Palin is, I'd just like to digress to say that the whole notion of this "Believability Meter", shown in the video, strikes me as INFINITELY more specious than any reservations I might have in assessing the significance of Mensa membership, so "Hang in there !, Oreo gal", OK ? :) [to be continued]...

You sure are long winded, sweetparardi. Do all ivy league educated persons require four hours to type up a thought on YouTube? In the beginning of you novel, you promised details. Where are they? Please provide specific details on why you think that Palin isn't "dumb", "incompetent", "scary", "immoral",etc. Break out the old thesaurus, and take your time. I'm patient.
Palin is a shallow dimwit. I am sick of all the right wing intellectual bigmouths trying to turn her into some phony working class hero when she is just a shallow middle class beauty queen
What a soft pedaled interview. Sean Hannity was wisely chosen by the McCain machine. When will John McCain let Sarah Palin loose and open to a interviewer who has some teeth?
As a person with a degree in finance, there is more substance in my coke can than there is in her explanation. She used political buzz words and talked and talked and talked, yet said LITERALLY NOTHING.
One shallow reactionary dimwit interviews another!
