    Oh, and one more reason ...

    Most of the letters from self-proclaimed PUMAs here are pretty clearly from right-wing trolls reciting Republican talking points; the authors are people who would never have voted for any Democrat, Obama or Clinton or anyone else. But it is possible that there are still a few Clinton supporters here who are inclined to vote for Palin out of a combination of frustration at the Democratic nomination process and a desire to see a woman, any woman, on the winning ticket. If articles like this one manage to persuade even a few such readers of what a terrible mistake it would be to vote for McCain/Palin on that basis, then they've served their purpose.
