Palin Interview

I've seen only clips of ABC's interview with Governor Palin, but I simply refuse to believe that the American public would elect such a novice. She obviously is bright and has political talent, but she is not up to the task of being VP of the US.

It is also disappointing that no matter how many lies that the McCain/Palin camp are being caught in, it is just not swaying public opinion. How is this so? I do want to understand, but can't get my arms around it.

Someone please enlighten me.
