I really think it is because she's a woman.

I think these good ol' boy insiders can't fathom answering to a woman.

They can't stand it because she's a relative newcomer and they've been trying to climb the ladder for years to attain the status she has acheived virtually overnight.

And, she has the "baracuda" reputation of rooting out corruption in her own party, and that probably scares them too. I'm not saying that Sanford is any of these, but I do think these things are a factor amongst a lot of the old timers.

At some point, the “good ol boys” in the RNC will wake up from their stupor and realize they have to raise $1 billion for the 2012 election cycle. Maybe they’ll make nice with the human ATM machine from Alaska then...LOL. I hope she has a long memory when that happens.

I agree, you are right.

It's getting more subtle, but these guys are extremely envious and jealous of Palin’s almost instant acceptance with the Real America.

Even the strong conservatives don't want her around so they don't have to be in the shadows of her popularity.
