From my column today:

It's come down to one night in St. Louis for Sarah Palin. The Alaska governor, hailed just weeks ago as the answer to all of John McCain's ills, has seen her national image wither to the point where more than half the country (51%) views her as unqualified to be president, according to the latest Pew poll. The question is no longer whether Palin can save McCain and Republican hopes of holding the White House. The question is whether she can save herself.
