You cannot begin to compare someone running for POTUS and someone running for VP. The VP candidate has not had the benefit of formulating any of the message, and hence is relegated TO repeating the message outlined by the top of the ticket over and over. Woe to the VP candidate who attempts to “intellectualize” and promote a new or different message than the one put forth by the presidential candidate.

This woman is attempting the age old impossibility of comparing apples to oranges.

Your point is precisely correct, which is why I saw the article as just another excuse to beat on Sarah Palin...and thus it certainly will be a rather interesting four years with Vice-President elect Joseph Biden, who has more than a knack for putting his foot in his mouth.
