From Mark Steyn about the criticisms of Palin based on her being a small town mayor: "A township that digs its own wells and plows its own roads is less susceptible to the beguiling notion that everything necessary in life is a mysterious "government service" to be provided by faceless bureaucrats far away."
Addendum: Also of note, Palin continues to draw huge crowds everywhere she goes...even in northeastern states where the grip of liberalism is strong. As I talk to people and it's interesting that while most people in my circles love her, there is a group of people who feel she's "not good enough." I wonder how those people would have responded in the day to Harry Truman, or Abraham Lincoln, or even Ronald Reagan, who were all in their way considered "contry bumpkins" or "dim bulbs" or "common" (in the negative sense), and yet were great presidents.
