They knew it the first time they saw her.
It's why they go insane every time they think of her.

Though it is embarrassing to admit this in public, I can no longer hide the truth. I have a Sarah Palin problem.
I have written about her in 42 columns since Sen. John McCain picked her as his presidential running mate in 2008. I've mentioned her in dozens more blog posts, Web chats, and TV and radio appearances. I feel powerless to control my obsession, even though it cheapens and demeans me.
But today is the first day of the rest of my life. And so, I hereby pledge that, beginning on Feb 1, 2011, I will not mention Sarah Palin - in print, online or on television - for one month. Furthermore, I call on others in the news media to join me in this pledge of a Palin-free February. With enough support, I believe we may even be able to extend the moratorium beyond one month, but we are up against a powerful compulsion, and we must take this struggle day by day.
SNIP
And so I pledge to you: Sarah Palin's name will not cross my lips - or my keyboard - for the entire month of February. Who's with me?
Dana Milbank is an op-ed columnist for The Washington Post and the author of "Tears of a Clown: Glenn Beck and the Tea Bagging of America."
Note by Kristinn: The WaPo has a poll accompanying the article: "Post columnist Dana Milbank has pledged not to write anything about Sarah Palin for one month. Would you pledge not read or watch coverage of Palin for one month?" Yes; no; I'll try"

Dana Millbank and her fellow travelers cant last one day with out spreading their hate filled vitriol about Sarah.
Or Bristol.
Or Todd.
Or any other Palin.

They'll probably have a daily announcement: "Today is day three of not mentioning Sarah Palin..."
Love this from a comment, which mirrors yours. From the site:
Keither Ubermoron is off the air, and Sarah Palin, the mind altering drug of you leftists is still around. Good products endure.
...how can any “journalist” take a pledge not to mention a very high profile political figure for a month?
^^
That’s easy to answer. Lefties take pledges all of the time that they don’t honor.
Is he giving the nazi salute in that photo to his fellow fascists?
It looks like The Post has pulled the poll.
&&&
Must mean we won.
Amen, bro.
In fact, why stop at February? Why not make the pledge all the way through the Nov. 2012 elections?
That way, The People can hear what Sarah has to say from her own lips instead of through the clogged filter of your Corrupt Bass Turd friends on The Professional Left.
Dana you ignorant twit. Do your worst, but ignore Palin at your peril.
