“There are very few here, if any, that would be properly designated a “Moonie” or “Manson-Like” with their following of Mrs. Palin, IMO.”

Some are doing a darn good imitation of one.

“I tend to think of it more as “Chivalry”. The spirited defense makes a lot more sense when you look at it from that perspective (as far as male posters go, which seems to be where the bulk of defenders lie).”

Well, that does make sense. What doesn’t make sense is that (drum roll) she’s NOT their girlfriend (or mother, sister, or daughter). She’s a POLITICIAN...attractive, right on the key issues, and charismatic...but she’s still a politician.

So what’s the problem?

How about you suggest someone you think is more qualified?

All you’re doing, is whining.

I was raised to defend a woman's honor whether or not she happened to be my girlfriend, relative or wife. I tend to think there are a lot of “old fashioned” gentlemen on this forum who were also raised in that manner.

I could be mistaken, but I hope not. :)
