The Implosion Of Palin

Fallows watches the interview:

What Sarah Palin revealed is that she has not been interested enough in world affairs to become minimally conversant with the issues. Many people in our great land might have difficulty defining the "Bush Doctrine" exactly. But not to recognize the name, as obviously was the case for Palin, indicates not a failure of last-minute cramming but a lack of attention to any foreign-policy discussion whatsoever in the last seven years.

We knew this already from this interview which I seem to be the only person to have noticed.

But yes. I'm thinking what you're thinking. It's over.
