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.

    Seriously? This is supposed to help?

    Before her convention speech, I described her selection like this: It left the Democrats staring at the chess board wondering wtf just happened while Rove mouthed the word "Check." And while the game's not lost, we keep fingering the wrong pawn.

    ===================

    This article and every other one like it will be the reason we lost the election. If you people in the press can't stop with all the sexist crap, the lies, generalizations and half-truths about this candidate, how in the hell are we going to win? We have less than 2 months now and you're still getting up to speed: Please, if it's not professional and accurate and thorough, don't toss it on the mountain of crap we have to read through to take this candidacy apart. Misrepresenting her in this way will not help anyone decide not to vote for her.

    Please take this story down.
