Re the pantyhose’n’leeches post, an observant reader corrects me:

Palin doesn’t wear pantyhose Mark. That’s one of the reasons the old fems don’t like her–unlike them, she actually has legs good enough to to bare.

Alas, I wouldn’t know. I saw Governor Palin in Laconia*, NH yesterday and — clearly stung by the allegations that her white outfits are racist — she turned up in black pants and a blouse of brownish-beige hue. In my section of the crowd, the moderate, centrist, undecided, independent swing voters expressed a preference for skirt and cleavage.

(*Laconia is best known for its annual Bike Week, by which standards the Governor was extremely overdressed.)
