by Deb Cupples | Yesterday, when Sarah Palin dropped the ceremonial puck during the Philadelphia Flyers season opener, the crowd greeted her with a thunderous chorus of "boo." She gets points for keeping the smile frozen on her face -- though, there is something creepy about watching a person react as though she's completely unaware of what's going on around her.
But then, that's just Governor Palin. Whatever's happening, she manages to remain blissfully unburdened by awareness -- and knowledge, for that matter.
Politico's Ben Smith explains:
"It's hard to blame Sarah Palin for her booing on the ice in Philadelphia this evening. It's almost a truism of politics that if you send a pol to a sporting event, he's going to get booed. Politicians, as a class, aren't all that popular, and it's what sports fans do.
"According to legend, Eagles fans once booed Santa Claus."
I suppose that's explanation enough. Thanks to the New York Times "Slapshot" blog for posting the video clip. Memeorandum has commentary.
