How Long Can Palin Keep it Up

I am just wondering how long Palin can keep up her "un-pressiness". In an article in the Wall Street Journal, Palin was once again noted for her distinct lack of presence with the media. In a recent appearance the press was permitted to observe, but was not granted any questions. The WSJ commented on Palin's preference of Facebook and appearances on FoxNews over traditional interviews with journalists. I do not understand this perpetuation of media paranoia. I am really turned off by a candidate who is not able to have a positive appearance in the media.

  1. Palin is a bad a joke. It's impossible to take a candidate seriously when they star in a reality TV show. (Even if the show is about roughing it in the great Alaskan wild!)

  2. Much of Palin's behaivor is a response to the negativity and lampooning she received from the traditional media during the 08 campaign. I in no way beleive her qualified for the presidency(or even the vice presidency), but I do think people's attitudes toward her would be quite different if she was a liberal democrat.
