Oh come on, it's just more vindictiveness towards a woman who's shown more poise, guts, and honesty in the spotlight than most politicians do throughout their careers!

How soon the media forgets far more public displays of gaps in knowledge, for instance: Nobody's out to ruin Biden, and look at all the stupid things and misinformation HE spews out! And: "By now you've seen the footage of Barack Obama ruing the fact that he hasn't been able to visit all 57 states in this great union of ours." Does demonstrate Obama is as big an idiot as this would make him seem? No, he's just human and isn't perfect.

So how about cutting Sarah Palin some slack for the same reason?
