I’ve said it many times and I’ll say it again, when Peggy Noonan isn’t playing party hack, she can be brilliant. She’s brilliant here in her analysis of the latest Sarah Palin brouhaha. Not because she takes a scalpel to Sarah Palin, but because she takes a chainsaw to the folks who created her and the myths they still try to force us and themselves to believe. She lays bare the plantation mentality of the party elite and the dangerous attitudes behind the entire episode.
If you wonder why those who run the political game, on both sides, don’t seem to really care about the issues, preferring the gamesmanship that passes for leadership, give this a read.
