Frequent commenter “Mike” makes a noteworthy point about the snap polls:
The “qualified” statistic in the snap polls is astonishing and deserves to be mentioned. 87% for Biden to 42% for Palin? That’s an enormous confidence gap. It demonstrates that none other than Republicans dare to suggest that she is actually qualified for her job… and I bet the number would be lower if the Veep had the CheneyPowers she alluded to. It also shows that she didn’t “right the ship” as much as we may have initially thought.
I think this is right in regards to “righting the ship.” A better cliched expression would that she “stopped the bleeding [momentarily and that the internal hemorrhaging continues apace].”
