Palin Not Miss Congeniality? Say it Aint So!

This is just getting ridiculous. There's a woman who says she was the real Miss Congeniality in Wasilla, 1984! McCain's choice of VP has reduced us to talking about a village's 1984 congeniality contest! He has successfully sucked all the remaining smarts out of the press and this election. We're running this election on pure stupid!

If this was Al Gore, this would be the final straw. There's enough of a track record of her being genuinely deceptive that this slightly funny example would break through and become the dominant narrative of Sarah Palin's personality. Then again, all of these revelations have occurred over less than a week. Maybe it needs to be more spread out than that to really take off.
