This is perhaps the most insightful article I've read about Palin and the election so far -- and I'm a raving liberal, feminist, and former dominatrix myself.
The article isn't about Palin, it's about the men who are slobbering over her. If I had a dime for every guy (including liberals) who've mentioned how hot she is... Salon didn't portray Hillary as a dominatrix because there weren't countless men drooling over that particular picture.
This election will not be about issue. McCain's campaign staff has openly stated as much. As long as the Dems persist in wonking on about policy, and failing to fight fire with fire, they will lose...again...as usual.
Maybe Obama's best hope is that women will be jealous of all the attention their men are paying to Palin and vote against the ticket out of spite.
