"...and provokes visceral hostility in the media."

Then, we're doing something RIGHT! :)Read. My. Lipstick.

"Apparently there is something about Sarah Palin that causes some people to think of her as either the best of candidates or the worst of candidates..."

And in either case...it speaks more to who THAT person is, rather than Sarah Palin.

When the chattering nabobs - including Peggy Noonan’s incoherent ramblings below-—are left twisting in the post modern PC breezes -—Thomas Sowell will stand taller than the Statue of Liberty—on the issues that really matter.

Would someone please explain to me the logic the media and the leftest use that Sarah Palin is not qualified to be VP.

Jimmy Carter was only the governor of Georgia and was elected President.

Billy Clinton was only the governor of Arkansas and was elected President.

Ronald Regan was only the governor of California and was elected President.

George Bush was only the governor of Texas and was elected President.

So why is does being the Governor of Alaska make you NOT qualified to only be Vice President. What am I missing here?

All things wise and wonderful. Too bad we can’t pen the liberals and play audio of Mr. Sowell 24/7.

Dr. Sowell is truly a national treasure, a 人間国宝 (ningen kokuhou), as one might say in Japanese.

An intellect reminiscent of America’s Founders—perceptive and wise. Oh, how someone like him is needed in the halls of government!

Maybe the Jewish community will actually vote for Mccain once the curtain is drawn. If I was threatened by the democrats, I would tell them one thing and vote another to literally save my butt! They have to see that obama is a grave threat to them. This is why I so believe that Mccain is going to win. I believe that God will step in and defend Israel once again.

"But being Vice President is a job that can allow a lot of time for studying, and everything about Governor Palin's career says that she is a bright gal with her head on straight. The country needs that far more than it needs people with glib answers to media "gotcha" questions.

Whatever the shortcomings of John McCain and Sarah Palin, they are people whose values are the values of this nation, whose loyalty and dedication to this country's fundamental institutions are beyond question because they have not spent decades working with people who hate America. Nor are they people whose judgments have been proved wrong consistently during decades of Beltway "experience."

It is crucial at this time for conservatives to stick together and rally behind Senator McCain and Governor Palin. Now is not the time to go on at length about their shortcomings. They get enough of that from the leftist MSM. Dr. Sowell gets it, unlike too many conservative pundits, commentators and thinkers.
