If you have to ask that question, I think the proper syntax in this
context is: "What's that wrong with?"
She has an appeal to the social conservative right wing of the
Republican party, mainly because of abortion, guns, and Christianity.
That may be one definition of Middle America, but, unfortunately for
McCain, she is not doing well with the true middle of the electorate,
the swing voters.
She garbled her syntax on climate change again in the debate:
"I'm not one to attribute every man -- activity of man to the changes
in the climate."
This consistent "Palinism" (as they are being called) is interesting.
Not sure what to make of it.
Curiously, she is claiming the cause does not matter to the solution
of climate change. I had never heard anyone express that idea before
Palin.
