She may not be smart...but she has been smart enough to parlay her way into being VP and now nominee for Pres.
Maybe not smart...but definitely crafty.
Crafty? I think the better term is likely 'slutty'. She was put in place because she is so easy to manipulate and so daffy.
BTW her husband and her husband's company were donors to Obama. Doubtful the deciding factor, but Obama put her into play for a reason. I believe he has complete control of her and she being so narcissistic, could care less who she stomps on or what happens to this country.
