Darned Wife!


SNL Palin and Hillary

Well well, so it has come to this, the fatal wound to Identity Politics: A skit on SNL, the .300 magnum round that brings it down, that chipmunk of an idea in the body of a grizzly. Identity politics has led to a competent candidate with vast experience, to be beaten decisively by not just one but by TWO Gender/Race appropriate candidates who, together, have only a hint of a hair of a smidgen of her experience. Well it serves Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi right. It really does. So Identity Politickers, what do you think now? Palin IS a woman, but even I can recognize Hillary is the authentic statesman, whereas Obama is just a fine idea, and Palin just fine.
