The people telling the story right now are probably just patting each other on the back for their awesome storytelling, when in reality it sucks.
There are a lot of dumb comments in this thread but I think this one and some of your others are right at the top. So you want Sansa to just up and kill Ramsey immediately.
If the writers were big enough idiots to write the show exactly as you would want, it would have been cancelled half way through the pilot episode. But, it is probably the most popular show on TV instead.
If they were as predictable as every bad guy dying immediately and doing exactly what the viewers wanted, it would be the most boring piece of shite show on TV.
If you think it sucks so bad, there is a very easy way to remedy that and it will actually give you more time to do other things.

Someone humor me and let's talk a few things over, because these haters are coming a little too strong.
1. Sandsnake getting naked for Bronn in the prison
- Regardless of purpose, this was great; however, I believe she got naked to get his heart beating/blood flowing to kick that poison into gear in that moment. She then tossed the antidote to him to perhaps secure his friendship for a potential escape.
- Yes, the poison/boobs/antidote sequence was semi-contrived, but it was classic sexy ninja technique.
2. The damn Sparrows
- They've mentioned several times (or did I read it from a recap??) that the Sparrows are far branching and have many, many followers in Westeros.
- At first, I was annoyed that Tommen didn't just send an army in to kill these guys. Next, I was pissed Olenna Tyrell didn't send an army in to kill these guys (they are the most wealthy family in the realm, surely their army is enormous). Finally, I understood that you can't just go killing religious fanatics who have your wife/daughter and brother-in-law/son (and basic bitch/mom) imprisoned.
- As soon as an army shows up on the Sparrows porch, out will come whatever his name is with a knife on Margaery's throat.
3. Ramsay/Reek/Sansa
- I agree this has gone on too long, no doubt about it. There has been so much time devoted to this Reek/Ramsay story that we naturally have to expect (require) a huge payout. That payout would have been killing Ramsey when he dicked down Sansa. But he didn't.
- The only next-best payout would maybe be during the incoming battle with Stannis. Perhaps Theon can screw Ramsey over at a key moment?
- The Sansa situation isn't what bothers me at all (regarding the storytelling). She is married to an abusive psychopath, so she's getting mentally and physically abused. This isn't a shocker (although it really sucks, because I like her).
