Palin, Africa, Denial

Ramesh is the lone voice of reason over at the Corner:

...if it is true that Gov. Palin did not know that South Africa was a country on the continent of Africa, it is the type of information that voters should know before her career progresses. And I don't think, by the way, that most people on the Left fear her.

He expands upon this point here. He also has a smart post on the future of the right. I know it's close to incredible that Palin was quite the know-nothing that she is, but you have to deal with the truth before you dig any further in.
