Some of my fellow political peeps are saying that us Obama-Biden faithful are falling into a Republican "trap" if we make the mistake of underestimating Palin, thinking her stupid.
Well, I don't underestimate her in that her ability to be nasty (combined with the nastiness of the Repub machine behind her) has the ability to exert plenty of damage. So, I take her "seriously" on that. But, the ability to be politically powerful and intelligent/sane at the same time isn't a given.
I'll never accept that she's a political or personal brainiac -- I refuse to believe she's "playing dumb" to curry sympathy or project an image as strategy. With her neanderthal points of view on everything from women's rights to religion, there's no way she's smart on the "down low". Without her "Republican" affiliation and the manipulators behind her, she couldn't think or speak her way out of a wet paper bag on the world stage.
So, no, I don't take her seriously -- still. I do, however, take the cronies behind her seriously, though.
