From Bill Whittle over at NRO, concerning Palin, McCain, and believing again
I think the magic of Sarah Palin speaks to a belief that so many of us share: the sense that we personally know five people in our immediate circle who would make a better president than the menagerie of candidates the major parties routinely offer. Sarah Palin has erupted from this collective American Dream — the idea that, given nothing but classic American values like hard work, integrity, and tough-minded optimism you can actually do what happens in the movies: become Leader of the Free World, the President of the United States of America. (Or, well, you know, vice president.)
Like all of Bill’s stuff, this is a great piece. RTWT By the way, over at his own blog he’s made a promise of a new long essay, soon. Oh goodie!
