42. I normally have some admiration for those who can "fake it until you make it"
and on the surface it would seem that Palin is such a person.

She came from nothing. She is not particularly exceptional or outstanding.

Yet she became the first woman governor of a state and the first woman on her party's ticket.

Those are accomplishments that I should admire.

The reason I don't admire her accomplishments is because she is so STRIKINGLY UNWORTHY of both her office of governor and her position of VP nominee.

Fake it till you make it is great, but you've got to actually MAKE IT, which means DO THE WORK.

She's a mentally lazy individual. No surprise people are talking about her future not in politics, but in TELEVISION.
