Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
- Shakespeare, Twelfth Night
The V.P. debates are coming up Thursday night - Sarah Palin vs. Joey Biden. The more Sarah Palin talks... well, it's like all of this stuff has just been thrusted upon here. To put it simply, she's just in way over her head. I predict (well, I hope) that she winds up like some kind of Johnny Fairplay, or Vanilla Ice - some reality star or some lucky sap who got thrust into the limelight and then winds up being the butt of our collective jokes for years to come. This gig just isn't for her. I'm sure she was fine in the remoteness of Alaskan politics. But when GOP talking heads are saying like that her best strategy is to not actually talk about the issues, or facts in general, and "just be Sarah"... well, that's not a good sign.
I almost feel bad for her. Almost.
