The dominatrix

Sarah Palin is trying to seduce independent voters. But she comes across like a whip-wielding mistress who wants to discipline a naughty America.

    Take it down, please

    I was appalled to see this article as Salon's headliner of the day.

    I think the specter of Sarah Palin as VP is terrifying, but Gary Kamiya and Salon do the Democrats no favors with this sexist and shallow piece of questionable journalism.

    There are plenty of reasons to believe that Palin and McCain are wrong for the U.S. Gary's probably even right that some voters will vote for her because she's attractive. But I read Salon for intelligent, thoughtful and informative writing. This pieces is none of those.

    Please don't turn into the Fox News of the left.
