Palin would be a terrible candidate, I couldn&#39t even vote for her over Obama, and thats saying alot. I&#39d rather have a moderate of either party than one of those two in 2012.

"What we hear is that she makes you look like a mud fence."

And sound like one, in comparison, intellecturally.

Maureen Dowd is renowned for her vapidity, as well as those of her fans.

"Dowd and Friedman are usually good for one thing"

What&#39s that, recycling whatever of theirs is printed?

Thank you, God, for giving us Sarah Palin! Even as we approach the one year anniversary of her fifteen minutes of fame, Palin continues to be the Give That Keeps On Giving to the Democratic Party. It may seem a little bit silly that we are so incredibly obsessed on a washed-up has-been (or is that a washed-out never-was?), but I am thankful that she is still around. As long as the spotlight remains focused squarely on the "Shrilla from Wasilla", it is so very difficult to take the republican party seriously....about anything. At all.

So, please, Sarah Palin, please keep hogging the spotlight. We need you to keep the republican party look like crazy loons!

Thanks, Mo MoDo. And frankly, I don&#39t think Sarah&#39s that good looking either, no offense to the guys who think she&#39s so hot. You do know there are more beautiful women out there, don&#39tcha?

Well, Sarah Palin is the genuine beauty pageant contestant and Maureen Dowd is the Pulitzer Prize winner. So if looks over smarts is the way to pick women, Palin is the winner.

It&#39s funny. I am pro-choice, OK with gay marriage, recognized the need for the stimulus, believe the GOP did an awful job 2000-2006, think Palin was terrible choice for VP candidate, and think GWB was a poor president. But in here people think I&#39m a right-winger.

Maureen, say what you will about Palin. What we hear is that she makes you look like a mud fence.

Dowd&#39s column was really funny, searingly, sneeringly, sarcastically, bitingly on target. I enjoyed it, and doesn&#39t bother me at all that the right wingers here didn&#39t. Thanks for pointing it out, Joe.

I think liberals kicking neocons when they&#39re down is appropriate. Neocons have been doing it for decades to liberals.

Humor here, is that neocons are kicking another neocon and that is the real story. John McCain, where is your chivalry? Will you not defend your chosen woman?

Good that Dowd consulted the esteemed psychiatrists at Vanity Fair to diagnose Palin.

Count on Maureen Dowd to provide the NYT&#39s readers with cute condescension instead of serious political analysis. But let us be thankful for MoDo -- she is always exhibit number one when we need to demonstrate that professional journalists are often less serious, more polemical, and less respectful than bloggers.
