as an athiest convert who grew up in the church of christ, i really want to choke out Palin anf her 'Alaska is a refuge in the end days' 'pray the gay away' bullshit.
This woman should be mocked openly not celebrated. We have a word for people who believe this nonsense... batshit insane.
Communicate it to the people who matter: people in your area of the population who would vote for her.
As GhaleonEB and even Cheebs I believe said, the most important thing about Palin is troopergate. And once I learned about that, it immediately decided my vote. I am now unable to look at Mccain without seeing pure, bloody red. But the question is, will America vote against Mccain because of this?
At the end of the day, the problem with scandal is that it is typically overblown. If I had to make an educated guess, the elections are now akin to an American Idol competition or a sports team election: Americans look at whichever candidate they most identify with and vote for them. The fact that Palin's child has a child may help her, since most dumb American parents have dealt with the same thing.
Somehow the Obama camp needs to turn the election into the issues without confusing the average dumb American. And someone also needs to prove to me that there are more independents out there than dumb Americans who will vote for Mccain/Palin; because I just don't feel that that is the case.
