    "I look out my window and I see Russia and so therefore I know something about Russia,'" he said. "That kind of thing is insulting to the American people."

    Sadly, this is not true. American's run on class resentment, although they will completely deny that there is such a thing as class in America. The average American operates on the "Well, you is no gooder than me!" when it comes to politics. And the dumber and more regular a fella is (or pretends to be), the more we like 'em.

    Bush, McCain, Obama are all elites in one way or another (and I'm not saying "elite" is neccessarily bad, as elites come in different flavors) who play the populist card as it suits them. Palin however really is dumb and regular. But she's Alaska dumb and regular and not lower 48 states dumb and regular. She's an outlier on the dumb US american scale. Which makes her nothing at all like regular folks, except in the sketchiest of biographical details. The fact as, Matt Damon put it, she could be a hair-breath away from the nuclear codes is fucking simply insane.
