I’d say this is unbelievable, but it isn’t. Among other things, Mrs. Palin apparently didn’t know the members of NAFTA and thought Africa was a country (yes, you read that right—a country). What I can’t believe is that more of this didn’t come out during the campaign. McCain’s staff was full of intelligent, honest people. This must have driven them batty.
I suppose this is what you get when you say “I want a candidate who’s like me; somebody I can relate to.” I imagine most of the people who voted for McCain/Palin because she was on the ticket also don’t know the countries of NAFTA, let alone what it is. (I’m giving people the benefit of the doubt regarding Africa.) Personally, I want the smartest person in the room who’s not an arrogant prick. But that’s just me.
