		<description>Because there has been discussion about who feels threatened by Sarah Palin ... I thought I&#039;d post about a &lt;i&gt;National Review&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=NWE0NmM5NDFmZDEwZjA5MDc2M2YzNmFiNmQxZGUxYjE=&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;blog post&lt;/a&gt; titled &quot;NYT is Threatened By Sarah Palin&quot; about a &lt;i&gt;New York Times&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://warner.blogs.nytimes.com/?scp=2&amp;sq=Judith%20Warner&amp;st=cse&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;blog post&lt;/a&gt; about a Sarah Palin rally. I think both the NR and NYT posts are worth reading. 

I&#039;ll also quote a bit from the NYT post:

&lt;i&gt;[University of Virginia Professor Jonathan] Haidt has conducted research in which liberals and conservatives were asked to project themselves into the minds of their opponents and answer questions about their moral reasoning. Conservatives, he said, prove quite adept at thinking like liberals, but liberals are consistently incapable of understanding the conservative point of view. &quot;Liberals feel contempt for the conservative moral view, and that is very, very angering. Republicans are good at exploiting that anger,&quot; he told me in a phone interview.&lt;/i&gt;</description>

I don&#039;t think Jill feels threatened. Based on the plethora of Palin posts, maybe obsessed. But not threatened.</description>

		<description>Daniel, you&#039;re missing the point, and there&#039;s no hysteria. But there is hypocrisy.  If she&#039;s a pitbull, why are they keeping her on a such a tight leash? I read a tweet today about a female candidate in N.C. who says that she doesn&#039;t ask for deference, she just asks for more questions.

I&#039;m also pointing out the subtle sexist ways in which the McCain campaign folks refer to Palin.  I don&#039;t like it and I don&#039;t think it&#039;s right.  But that&#039;s me.

Finally - I&#039;m a voter like anyone else and I cannot believe that a person who could be president will remain so unknown, again, esp. since the McCain campaign has helped push the &quot;what do we really know about Obama&quot; stuff.</description>

		<description>Palin said in her speech that she wasn&#039;t going to Washington to win the good opinion of the reporters and commentators.  She hasn&#039;t been hidden from view.  She&#039;s been on the campaign trail meeting with voters who are excited to see her.  That seems to be working out well, so I can see why the campaign is asserting to the media that they are in charge of the campaign schedule, not the MSM.  

Nevertheless, I&#039;m sure the major network TV interviews are on the horizon, so I don&#039;t buy into your &quot;sexist&quot; hysteria, and I predict she&#039;ll do just fine.  By contrast, I&#039;m not sure that you&#039;ll be fine if those interviews turn out well.  Instead of 5 panicked posts a day about Palin, I&#039;m worried you&#039;ll up it to 20 jittery posts a day about Palin.

Take it easy on the caffeine.</description>

		<description>Oh goodness Gloria! Just 55% eh?! :)

Thanks so much for taking the time to read - I&#039;m posting about the &quot;deference&quot; the campaign is demanding the media give Palin now.  Did your read about that!?</description>

		<description>True, true, Jill, and thank you as always for consolidating so much important information about your topic. I only wish the MSM were as diligent. Not to mention the Obama campaign which hasn&#039;t got its groove on yet, though I imagine they will soon--and I have 55% confidence they&#039;ll figure out how to counter and better the paradoxical Sarah be before it&#039;s too late.</description>
