All of this, the insane hatred of Mrs palin is so weird, its easy to see how American politics has broken down so badly.
It isn't that insane, her speeches regarding Obama palling around with terrorists and making herself the darling of extreme rwns with other comments along that vein have cost her.
America has been divided for sure but it isn't really due to voters hating Palin. She is such a flake generally and speaks before thinking most of the time. I believe the word to describe her is not hatred anyway, it is that Americans are horrified that she is so close to a leadership position in the Republican party and they just want to be assured that she will never hold high office.
