Perhaps we should wonder why we're losing to her Party, the GOP and to Cruz, McConnell, Boehner, Scott Walker, Rick Scott, Jeff Inhoff, Chris Christy and others, especially after the greatest financial crisis in 75 years, relentless plundering of public services and resources and the sharp decline of the middle and working classes. I fail to see any interest in her; the Palin phenom was well over, even before the expose film, 'Game Change".
