And you say that as though virtually anyone actually gives a damn what she did or didn't do. Or even more shockingly, as though you believe the outcome - from one end of the spectrum to the other -- would influence more than a relative handful of votes. Any result can be spun by both sides. Believing otherwise is painfully naive, and I know good & well you're smarter than that. Make careful note, I said "believing". You certainly free to wish for anything you want in that regard, no harm in that as long as you have a grip on the reality of the situation too.

She could cure cancer & she's not going to draw votes from Obama supporters. She could rape drunken goats on home video & she's not going to send a significant number of voters running from McCain to Obama (although that might keep a few weak McCain's from turning out).

Yup. Its a battle for the middle 20%. As one wag put it, 40% of Americans would vote for Hitler over Ghandi depending on the party identification (heck, I think Jon might )
