It's disgusting that Palin and McCain are perfectly willing to use the sexist stereotype of "wilting flower" to try and get her out of things. But then, I don't really expect anything better from them, so. . .
I mean, I could probably make a good impression with a national speech if given time to prepare, etc. But dealing with foreign policy and constant questions from reporters and all the rest of it? No. And the thing is, I know I couldn't handle it well and that is why I'm not trying for the damned job.
