She was nothing but a stalking horse. They sent her on before with the most outrageous foolishness to see what S**t would stick to the wall and then used it in their elections. They may still pay for it when her wing takes down the party and the country, but we’ll see.
Haven’t heard of that book, but I’m pretty well versed on how to fool people with statistics and graphs.
One of my favorites: Imagine a vertical bar graph where the Y axis is from zero to 100, and all the X axis data points are in the 80-85 range. Thus, the graph shows that there isn’t much difference from variations in X.
But if you want to make it look otherwise, you just alter the Y axis to be from 80 to 85, making it look like there’s a huge variation…as long as the viewer doesn’t notice what was done to the Y axis.

Palin isn’t being “silenter”.
Instead, she’s trying to declare that she’s the victim here.
Except she didn’t get killed.

^With any luck, Palin’s political star has flamed out. She’s a decent self-promoter and an opportunist, not a candidate for national office.

Her handlers missed the boat. Insulting Jews is not the way to the Presidency, I hope.
