i think that the left will always tear itself apart when it isn't uniting against an outside enemy. and even when it is. when someone on the left comes forward and starts talking about ageism, and how nasty it is to keep mentioning that lump on McCain's face, maybe then i'll feel less annoyed about those rushing to protect Palin's delicate self. i'd say the rhetoric used to describe her is remarkably like the rhetoric used to describe Dan Quayle back in the day - young, pretty, inexperienced, etc. and i'm certainly not going to refrain from calling an anti-sex ed/antiabortion female politician a stupid cunt.
all we need is a standard sweaty-mom-exhausted-after-labor holding infant Trig picture to clear this up. everyone takes them. i'm surprised that it's not been taken care of already. i know putting an intimate family moment out there is an invasion of privacy, but she's already getting the welcome-to-national-politics anal probe. and they haven't pulled out the opera-length gloves yet...
