“That was a defining moment for Barack Obama; this is a defining moment for the entire party and the media. They claim to represent and/or champion blue-collar America, and yet the moment someone outside the elite enters the highest levels of political contest, what do they do? They sneer at her humble beginnings, they sneer at her community, and they sneer at her values — all of which embody the middle-America, suburban identity. And not only does she come from that heart of middle America, she has been tremendously popular among her fellow Alaskans, meaning that the sneering jibes hit at all of middle America, too.”
Lame. That KOS story was apparently sourced by an angry rival in Alaska and I can’t believe that anyone bought it. Bill Maher can never resist the low hanging fruit and has always been more than a bit sexist.

Apparently I just need to start a third blogosphere that is free of any sort of X Derangement Syndrome.
