I am pleasantly surprised to see that you, raunchydog, a true-blue liberal, isn't dumping on Palin in a knee-jerk reaction like many liberals do. If you've ever read the comments section (as well as some of the blogs!) on the HuffingtonPost you'd see that they show her no mercy. I say now what I said during the campaign: Palin had more more executive experience than the other 3 men on the ticket combined (Biden, McCain, and Obama). And I believe she is snickered at not so much because she is a woman but because she is a BEAUTIFUL woman. And many people simply can't handle that. If she looked like Shirley Chisholm with the same platform, she would NEVER have been dumped on like she has been.
