I surely don't mean to defend this inferior intellectual, but in all fairness I think she may have been sold a bill of goods. She was presented with a proposal that appeared "too good to be true" and we all know how that one goes. It's like interviewing for a salaried position that's about $45K above your normal and standard pay grade. You figure you will either learn it quick or with your talent, can bluff it. What's so difficult?

Her egomaniacal self did not blink, and I believe that. This was just another gift from Gawd, speeded along by those glorious "laying of hands" by that weird reverend friend of hers. She would be able to shine, be on all the TeeVee shows illustrating her brilliance and building up the old guy. That would be her job, nothing to it. They told her "Yes, Sarah" we will give you a crash course, you will meet with various foreign leaders and become respected in the eyes of the world."

But alas, this was not to be. They won't let her talk to her public, they put her on these shows and ask her to answer questions she is not prepared for. Creepy old men, including McLame are leering at her, she's described as an "aphrodisiac" by one you can hardly understand. PhotoOps are all that is allowed. "I'm a Governor, fergodssake!" Nah, this is starting to become a drag, and that troopergate thing just won't go away. McLame's people are running my office and I'm on the cover of a tabloid, not in a good way. Why not the NY Times?

I don't think the woman is that dumb not to realize she is being used. As other posters have said before me, she does not look enthused or happy anymore. She was sold a bill of goods that flopped. The cold north is starting to look much better, at least there she was the "boss."
