Poll question: Are you Joe/Jane Six-Pack?
Do you fit into Palin's "folksy" group of average Americans? What a lovely characterization of the Middle Class, BTW.

3. What qualifies you to be Joe Sixpack? You drink a six pack every night?
Sounds like an alcoholic to me. Is that the average American?

6. Not me, I'm an elitist and damn proud of it!
I am a lone elitist in a sea of rednecks out here in the boondocks of western PA. I'm surrounded by McCain/Palin yard signs on all sides of me.

Oh, and those damn six packs usually end up in my yard when the damn yahoos throw them out of their damn pick-up windows. Ya--Hoo!!!

:puke:

9. I don't like beer.
I like the letter "g" and try to use it at the end of words that have it.

I like using actual swears.

10. I'm a stay-at-home, PTA, soccer (and gymnastics) mom...
...who lives in the suburbs of middle America.

Sarah Palin insults women and average Americans, when she assumes that talking like a hayseed
will entice "average Americans" into following her like she's some kind of pied piper in a skirt.

I'm smack dab in the middle of America, and not one mother in my book club talks like Sarah Palin.
Not one mom in our PTA meetings says, "Betcha" and "Darn it" and "Golly gosh" and winks at everyone when they're
giving talks. Most of the parents at the soccer games, gymnastics meets and school meetings understand
very well when they see an opportunistic politician who is way out of her league.

Sarah Palin is morphing herself into a gross caricature of what she thinks average Americans are like.

Sarah Palin insults all of us with this misguided, folksy shtick.
