Former Gov. Palin

I have never understood the media's attitude towards Sarah Palin. I doubt I'd vote for her for President, but she is obviously a reasonably adept politician, or she would not have been elected Gov. of Alaska. Yet the media - and especially the left wing media - seems to treat her as if she is evil incarnate, and their reasoning escapes me. Here is a good - if somewhat pointed - essay making the point that she is not outside the political mainstream in her positions and statements (http://pajamasmedia.com/victordavishanson/the-war-against-palin-goes-on-and-on-and/).
