"What do you mean by her "BS"? BS to me implies deception"

Just because she speaks in a down homey way and may speak "from her heart"
doesn't mean she is speaking honestly.

I heard her give several different reasons for quitting as governor during that speech last week,
all she had to say was she didn't like doing the job anymore.

Instead she talked about how inefficient she was, the legal troubles, the money being wasted,
how hard it was on her family, where she could spend her energy better, etc etc.
Yes, I would consider some of that B.S.

And I disagree completely with your last statement. I always try to put myself in other peoples'
shoes, whether I agree with their views or not. I imagine the intense scrutiny and criticism of
her since last fall has been extremely difficult for her, but she volunteered to run for VP,
and since the election she appears to thrive on baiting her critics.

IMO it's always good to be tolerant of those who we suspect of intolerance, and keep trying
to show the best example.

Her form of BS would be repeating that which gets her base excited while never offering any meaningful substance or thought. Or just pretending she has the wherewithal to be the prez rather than immediately telling McNut he was insane for putting a self-proclaimed hockey mom with little experience beyond managing ice floes a heartbeat away from the position.
