I will poop in my pants if any of the Fox news loyalists think anything other than she made a complete ass of herself. You and I both know she could say absolutely anything and it wouldn't matter. It will get spun to make her look like a complete moron and the viewers will just gobble it up. Their site right now is 100% negative about the interview and there's no doubt in my mind there's a lot more where that came from.

For the core fox watchers, yes.

But here's the real audience: every single restaurant and diner and bowling alley and gas station and mom and pop whatever in the south is blaring fox 24/7 and I'm sure she caught the attention and the ear of more than a few people who know almost nothing about politics.

and those people who know nothing decide how they vote based upon how their parents voted. I wouldn't hold my breath that they would suddenly posess the relevant critical thinking skills to evaluate who they're electing.
