I like the treehugger ad for a hybrid car before the video starts. Then, watching the video, one starts to think-----"Wow. It's all true, she really is a total ditz."

Even the commercials are painful to watch.

Do you guys think this will help or hurt her political career?

Personally I think the more time she spends in front of a camera the more she damages her image.

Personally, I feel that way, but objectively I have my doubts. She now has two media outlets in which she can define herself before she has to actually start answering real questions (from someone other than Fox). Kind of unfair to compare her to Princess Di (Unfair to Di), but, like Di she has her fans because of the image she projects rather than the substance of her message.

I think that those who take the time to post on a political forum - a black and white medium - are not as inclined to be as impressed by celebrity as a large number of Americans. Whether SP's ability to overcome her other obstacles (like her ignorance) with a carefully crafted image remains to be seen. I hope that I don't overestimate the intelligence of the American electorate by presuming that at least a majority will be able to discern her substance - or rather her lack of it.

Regards,

D-Ray

No not the case.
A big part of being elected is establishing a feeling of familiarity with the voter and the more she is in our living room the more likely people will be to vote for her.
