I can't feel sorry for her. If she came out really trying - like by accepting the nomination with grace, ideas, and humility rather than sarcastic douche-baggery, or if she didn't try for weeks to convince us she said "thanks but no thanks" when every single person on the planet knew she was full of shit, and on and on -
then maybe I'd feel sorry for her. But she didn't. She came out with guns a' blazin', acting as if she thought she could say absolutely anything she wanted with impunity. So while I know you don't mean you feel
deeply sorry for her, I just can't seem to feel even a tiny sliver of empathy for the woman. In fact, I'm rooting for her political career to completely implode, because I've actually seen interviews with her friends and political cohorts where they've said that Palin's told them that her ultimate goal is to be President. I never want her anywhere near the White House. Ever.
