cross-posted. I agree with most of what you just said, EXCEPT maybe, just maybe, the less educated, the hayseeds, the ditto-heads, and even their social opposites, have a valid point to consider when they are highly suspicious of intellectuals in executive leadership positions.

I said at the time that Obama may have lost the election with his "bitter" comment made in San Francisco, and not in PA. Palin was instructed to and did hit hard on that one. He should have said it in PA. That would have been a lot more respectful.
