Sarah Palin kept talking and talking, and the more she talks, the less compelling she can be. People say, “She’s a very good politician, very deft at what she does,” and whatever. And I hear that sometimes and go, “I don’t know much about this stuff, but I would say no.” Because the really good politician expands the audience, not contracts it. She may be getting a very vocal crowd, but it’s a very specific group.

Sarah Palin kept talking and talking, and the more she talks, the less compelling she can be. People say, 'She's a very good politician, very deft at what she does,' and whatever. And I hear that sometimes and go, 'I don't know much about this stuff, but I would say no.' Because the really good politician expands the audience, not contracts it. She may be getting a very vocal crowd, but it's a very specific group.
