Such is the road to idiocracy and the flaw in democracy. I suppose the best thing you can do is separate them and their money (which a lot of people will be and are doing since they are easy marks. Hey dummy, wanna buy a big pickup truck?) I'm a little more optimistic than that and hope that the masses see the wisdom in electing someone who can hold an thoughtful and intelligent conversation with other world leaders of their IQ and not some guy who wants to remind you every ten minutes that he was a POW so you feel sorry for him with a VP who should not even be elected a PTA chairman.

Michael Moore: Liberals, lay off Palin Friday September 5, 2008 posted by Rod Dreher @ 1:13pm It's not because filmmaker Michael Moore is a nice guy, but because he's a pragmatic one: "But before everyone gets all smug and self-righteous about the Palin selection, remember where you live. You live in a nation of gun owners and hunters. You live in a country where one out of three girls get pregnant before they are 20. You live in a nation of C students. Knocking Bush for being a C student only endeared him to the nation of C students. Knock Palin for having kids, for having a kid who's having a baby, for anything that is part of her normalness -- a normalness that looks very familiar to so many millions of Americans -- well, you do this at your own peril. Assuming she's still on the ticket two weeks from now, she will be a much tougher opponent than anyone expects." Please, nice leftist people, make more fun of Palin's church, her moose-hunting skills, her family and her small-townness. You'll really show those extremist nuts -- who really are only the tiniest fraction of the American populace -- and put them in their place! Pay no attention to this new Rasmussen poll showing that Palin is now likely the most popular politician in the nation.
