Yet Governor Sarah Palin came out of a defeat and 24/7/365 ridicule, abuse and bogus ethics complaints stronger than ever, the probable 2012 standard-bearer and kingmaker. Who says only men have those kind of stones?

Not I. I have always regretted the fact that G H W Bush ran as Reagan’s successor, rather than Jeane Kirkpatrick.
I think she retained her Democratic party status till the end though - can’t remember.
Back to Palin, yes, she has proven an ability to take the heat not merely in the kitchen, but in a crucible. And she fights back while enduring it. We have not seen that in years.
Wow, Jeane Kirkpatrick, haven’t thought of her in years. Now there’s one tough old broad, lol. She was hard to like as a person, but was I ever glad to have her on our side and in the role she played, in that place and time. We owe her a debt of gratitude.
