Mostly a phantom, much like the "death panels" involved in Obamacare. Remember those?.
Yep, I do remember them. I remember that they were brought up as an issue and challenged by Palin and other prominent conservatives at the time. I also remember that they were removed from the Obamacare bill before it was passed into law as well. Don't worry, you'll be dealing with them (stuck with them) as an issue directly relating to you and your life eventually after America votes to move forward as a nation and part ways with the Progressive Democrats and leave them to their own demise.
Sarah Palin showed beyond any question that she was completely unfit to be Vice-President. She gave one speech well and made a fool of herself. She made an infamous speech separating the "Real America" from what much of America considers the modern-day equivalents of Sodom and Gomorrah, America's medium-to-giant cities. While in Chilicothe, Ohio she praised rural America and disparaged cities whose skyscrapers were out of view. News crews from Columbus, Ohio were there to capture the speech. Chilicothe is within the service area of the channels "4", "6" and "10". Let me explain what those numbers mean in Ohio:
Channel 4, 6, and `10 in Ohio are associated only with the Columbus market. Sarah Palin could have asked what TV market she was in... it's obviously Columbus. Just because she isn't in Columbus doesn't mean that her visit to Chilicothe isn't a news event. Her rambling, derisive speech got picked up by TV stations in Columbus, a fairly cosmopolitan city despite its location, and the horrid speech spread like wildfire.
After all, consider what is in Columbus, Lots of minorities, of course. Not Palin's sort of people, especially if they do not have English as their first language. (People not native speakers of English can often show an above-average mastery of standard English associated with well-educated people, but from my experience they do not catch on to American slang. This is so whether the language is fairly close in grammar and vocabulary to English, like French, or wildly distant like Chinese). Columbus has one of the largest universities in America, Ohio State. It has oodles of well-educated professionals who don't appreciate having their intelligence offended. So those aren't your sort of people? Tough!
America's giant cities have plenty of fine people, and in general they do not describe their communities as Sodom and Gomorrah. I can tell you about the vileness that is Michigan Avenue in southwestern Detroit, but once it enters Dearborn the sex-related businesses disappear in favor of kebab houses, and one quit seeing whores plying their trade and drunks and addicts stumbling about... and far fewer bars and liquor stores. Islamic influence, you know. Yes, you can get a drink in Dearborn, but you had better not get drunk or rowdy. Plenty of Christians and Jews also live in Dearborn, but they seem to like things quiet. Better the mosque than the whorehouse.
The truth about death panels was that loved ones and physicians would get to discuss when to pull the plug on someone unconscious in a terminal condition. Get your facts straight. Those death panels are being used on COVID-19 patients.
