I too am a Palin supporter and not a blind follower.
I personally don’t go for the tabloidesque side of her and her family’s pop culture participation and would rather her be seen advancing political philosophy and policy when she’s before a camera. Love what she’s done with her Facebook page, feel squeamish about some of her Twitter posts.
But I’m not entirely Middle American either, I guess. I can’t really gauge when she’s winning over potential casual voters and whether she’s gone too far. So I suck it up and hope that she moves into campaign mode, with more of the Serious Sarah on display, soon.
I totally agree with that.
How do you reach the “independent” vote that doesn’t watch cable news or buy political books or go to FR or blogs?
She may win.
