Blog of the Week: Instapunk

Some of the most interesting and original insights about the American political scene I have read in his blog. Here are some of his thoughts in a recent post about Sarah Palin:

A lot of the powers that be [including many Republicans -jj] don't like what's attractive and authentic about her because it reminds them of their darkest fear, that there are millions of people out there who don't accept the clear superiority of constipated policy wonks who know what's better for the common people than the common people do.

...if you in the MSM had spent half as much time investigating our loser president as you did the uterus of Sarah Palin, maybe we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now.

And you can tell that the chattering classes are still morbidly afraid of Sarah.
