And Poor Judgment of the Old Republican Guard
Amazing that the question of whether poor John McCain picked wisely by picking Palin is still even remotely out there, but it appears to be. Billy Krystol indicated today that he thought that the Tea Party movement was fueled in part by their populist disgust with that nepharious "elite" (which is what-anyone with a graduate degree) and their brutal trashing of not-ripe-for-primetime -Palin.
Clueless. Stunningly clueless.
Palin is that girl we all knew in High School - a little dumb and a little trampy. She mouthed off in PTA meetings, had kids early and got elected to a puny town's town council then mayor. Whoop-dee-friggin-do. Her international experience was gazing on what she thought was the Soviet Union across from a fish troller. Unbelievable that anyone at any strategy level at the RNC thought that this was someone who could have any credibility nationally.
Yes, we want educated people running multibillion dollar enterprises in our name and trust. Yes, we want people with the best education, the best experience, the best wisdom and the best brains.
Palin was part Wasilla hillbilly, part David Daisey Dukes and part just take the damn GED so you don't have to go to college No. 4.
GIVE US A BREAK BILLY.
