Palin has more than Obama.
Dude you only have to hear them speak for a couple of minutes to know she's a dope and he's of at least a bit above average intelligence.
That's dialect bias. You can put a clip of Palin making a good point and a clip of Obama making a stupid point next to each other and Obama will sound/look more intelligent. Most people and the media will have that impression, which is why I wouldn't support Palin -- if I personally liked her as a candidate in the first place (which I don't). So, once you get beyond a baseless impression you would have to weigh each body of work. The similarities are quite amazing...
both:
think poorly on their feet
have poor command of most issues
are so dependent on slogans you wonder if they have anything behind the rhetoric (Palin probably has a more realistic "vision", but mostly because she chose better people to copy from)
Get sidetracked into small pointless issues, making themselves smaller and smaller
etc etc
Palin at least has a track record of good decision making skills on her side. You can't get around that, other than pretending it doesn't count or doesn't exist or something.
