Is it a surprise that Krugman, the most leftist media figure on the market, and Zakaria, who made his bones declaring America is over, don't like Palin? It's guys like them that givem me another reason to love her. Both are being intellectually dishonest if they say her answer was protectionist for Hamas. She plainly is stating that you don't accept them just because they are in power. Her opening line in the answer is..
