    Character?

    Is it off-limits to criticize Palin for being vicious? The Republicans want to make to the election all about "character", as they define it, once again. She revealed herself in her speech to be a very nasty person, and to me, that reflects very poor character. Is that criticism too personal? No, she is selling the character that she very consciously portrayed, and that is a fair target for criticism.
