Are Americans smarter than I thought?

Well, it might have taken them a while to catch on, but it looks like Americans are starting to figure out that Sarah Palin is indeed bat-shit stupid and unqualified to be VP. Making McCain unqualified to be president, since he's the idiot who picked her.

Check out this video clip from CNN (hat tip: Chuck) Clearly the media is not going to roll over on this one.

Now check out her poll numbers. Her favorable/unfavorable ratio is now at -10, well below every other person on either ticket. McCain is second lowest, Biden and Obama are on the upswing.

Could it be that Americans are actually a) paying attention to what McCain and Palin say and b) holding them accountable for their lunacy?

I'm afraid to dream.
