I think the clip we watched today just showed how much more people care about sports that they do politics. Many of those people their had no actual idea of what sara palin stance were on many issues or way they disliked obama beyond just saying that he is going to ruin america. I dont know this for sure but I have a feeling that if you went outside a NFL game and asked facts about the team or players that the fans would all be much more capable of explaining how they feel about the team beyond just saying they represent us well. I think that politics needs to be involved with sports if politicans want to efficitively rely their messages to the american people.
