Ask an independent voter.
CNN and CBS did and they handed the victory to Biden.
It is pretty clear at this point that Sarah Palin appeals only to the base, which is fine, but the McCain campaign can’t win without the help of independent voters who, unlike the radical right wing, base their voting preferences on criteria other than spunk and a “can-do” attitude.
Have you read a Republican blog lately? There are a lot of long faces, folks. They put all of their chips down on winning this election by flogging their boogeymen; Wright, Rezko and Ayers and whining about the “liberal media” and now that the playbook that has served them so well over the past two decades has proven inadequate they’re stuck with stuffing all of their hopes into an empty-pantsuit.
If you didn’t know it before then last night drove the point home; Palin is a “real” American from “real” America not one of those “elitists” with all of their dog-gone facts and figures and stuff! Don’t we know it.
