horrifying example of Palin sexism
ewwwwwww.

Where is Sarah Palin in Her Cycle Right Now?
Is Sarah Palin ovulating? It's a personal question, but we need to know. Last year, a highly-publicized study of strippers found that dancing girls always earned more during the time of the month when they were most fertile. Simply put, men were more attracted to them for reasons they were not aware of and could not control. With that in mind, ovulation may be part of the reason that Palin charmed a certain segment of American during the debates last night. I mean, check this out:
- Rollins gave 10 points to Palin on CNN.
- "Sarah Palin was sensational tonight... she wiped the floor with Joe Biden." -Pat Buchanan on MSNBC
- "Palin too projects through the screen like crazy. I?m sure I?m not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, ?Hey, I think she just winked at me.? And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America." -Richard Lowry, pundit on National Review?s The Corner blog. [via Wonkette]
- "She delivered big-time... It was the best 90 minutes this campaign has had in two weeks... Whatever expectations there were, she blew them away." -Tom Rath, New Hampshire-based GOP strategist. [Washington Post]
All from (admittedly Republican) men. Coincidence? No, Joe?pheromones, transmitted through the TV.
That said, even if men seem to like Palin more than women do, that doesn't mean they'll vote for her McCain. Because, continuing this logic, the same dudes love strippers, but not for marrying.

You win mominatrix. This is the most blatant example I've ever seen.
Has BM* seen this? It's perfect for her blog.
Did they just call the GOP VP Nominee a stripper?
Just FYI:
I find this funny. I'm sitting here trying to figure out what I'm missing or why it doesn't bother me. I guess since Palin has risen to prominence not on her skills, years of service - like HRC, Pelosi, Todd Whitman - and she uses her sexuality for gain, it just seems different.
I'm not saying she doesn't have intelligence and skills. She clearly does. But her skills are more in marketing herself, playing to a crowd. To dismiss a true political heavy-weight as just another piece of tail, well that is demeaning, because it ignores everything else she has done. But there isn't a lot that Palin has done.
I'm thinking of this in relation to Obama. If there was a similar "article" about Obama and what cologne he was wearing when he was in Germany - I'd have the same reaction.
