So her memoir is being released on Nov 17. The title is "Going Rogue: An American Life"

Merriam-Webster sez about "rogue":

1. Vagrant, tramp
2. Dishonest or worthless person
3. a mischievous person
4. a horse inclined to shirk or misbehave
5. an individual exhibiting a chance and usually inferior biological variation.

This stuff just writes itself.

However, in The Free Dictionary (Web-based) there are additional definitions:

2. One who is playfully mischievous; a scamp.

3. Operating outside normal or desirable controls

I can't understand continuing antipathy to this harmless amusing GILF.

Sure, she proves she's ignorant, petty, uneducated, and vindictive pretty much every time she opens her mouth, but adding her radical right wing noise and channeling vile people like Glenn Beck does indeed harm what should be informed political debate. She's certainly been one of the voices promulgating the myths and lies about the various health care reform proposals. Although originally voiced by Gingrich and Beck, "death panels" didn't take off in the public consciousness until the Wicked Witch of the North's Facebook posting. That's not harmless nor amusing.

Sure, the thought of her assuming the presidency is appalling. But do you think that gal is still influential and/or "relevant"?

Shoot, I thought maybe Palin was joining the juggling troupe... Pyro, Gyro, Walter and Palin has a nice ring to it.

I do...unfortunately.

She's only been mostly discredited to date, and she does speak out about important issues.

Yes, she adds fuel to the fire, and far to much of the public sees the fire and thinks there must be something there.

Although not a grandma, Demi Moore is two years older than Palin.

Actually no. I just find the entire genre of Modern World/Slowpoke type comics annoyingly unfunny and contrived. But, hey...that's just me. Laugh away.

I agree in that most of it is as you described. So I select only relevant and hit-the-spot stuff. And yes, I don't always succeed.
