I don’t get it. He hates her, always has.
Kristol was pushing for Palin way back at the start.
He always has to play the jackass, and throw feints and dodges here and there, but early on he was a Sarah stalwart, believe it or not.
I remember him being on Fox after her convention speech and he was proud as punch.
Below is a clip I dug up. There are plenty of others. This is an insulting piece as regards Palin, but it does point to Kristol as one of if not the earliest Palin supporter.
Kristol went to Alaska and “discovered” Palin for McCain. He went there on a cruise, and Palin met the boat.
Kristol has described her as “shrewd”.
