Sarah Palin was punked and gullible as the hick she is. I have no respect for the Montreal DJs who punked Sarah, making her believe she was talking to the French President. But they have punked 100s of people and only Palin and Britney Spears have been so dumb that they never caught on. First and foremost, she picked her staff and they failed big time. They are supposed to protect the intellectually challenged candidate from difficult questions and smart alecks who are smarter than she is. Or did they really succeed? This almost looked like it was an inside hit job. She had met with the guy recently. If she doubted his identity, why not ask what they had with their coffee? She didn't have a hint when they said they loved "Nailin' Palin?" Or when they said they liked hunting: "I like taking the life from animals." If she weren't running for Veep, I would feel sorry for her. The DJs' act was despicable, but they showed us what a dupe she really is. Something the more discerning of us already knew. One thing is true, Sarah has livened up what had been a dull campaign.

ls, i have had my eyes open during this election cycle, not in the sand like you. republicans proclaim that obama is smart based on his harvard class standing. no republican ever said mccain over achieved to get 594th spot out of 699 places. mccain picked palin - BIG MISTAKE. mccain ran a crappy campaign - BIG MISTAKE. obama raised millions from ordinary people and used the media to beat down mccain. "my friend," mccain will lose tonight. badly. everyone prefers a big tax increase to mccain's sorry behind.
