The left is truly "stuck on stupid" and "stuck in the '60s." They believe that conservative/Republican men have no respect for women. They weren't really right about that in the '60s although attitudes had some of those tendencies. But that was almost fifty years ago and American culture has changed a lot across the spectrum of society. Generally speaking there is a profound respect for women within the conservative view and time has worn away a great deal of the cultural prejudices that did exist.

Sarah Palin embodies the kind of strength a woman is capable of in family and in business. A woman who engenders respect for being unapologetically herself on all fronts. A woman unafraid to stand up for her principles without regard to stereotypes.

A lot of men are going to see their wife, sister, mother etc, in her and will be deeply resentful of the insults directed at her for nothing other than being an unapologetically self-confident wife, mother and public servant. It undoubtedly brings to mind all the like-minded insults the women in their lives have been subjected to. 0bama and the MSM now embody that.
