#1 Truth, it's the new hate speech.

#3 So, I guess, this Steelman is dead meat?

#4 She never once removed her oversized sunglasses.

That's because she was a bit careless while strangling a grizzly a few days before and it managed to give her a hell of a shiner.

#5 I thought pedal-pushers were the ones that ended at the knee and capri pants went to the calf. I seem to remember pedal pushers were shorter so the pants would not get dirt and grease from a bicycle chain, hence, pedal-pushers.

#6 I think Steelman came in second out of three contenders in the primary.

I suspect they wouldn't be talking about her if it wasn't one of the defeats. When you're trying to play down an opponent you ignore all the victories and talk about the defeats.

#7 Perhaps if Diana didn't write for the WP she would still know the difference between a male and female bear.

You could be right, AlmostAnonymous5839 -- at any rate there's a photo of the governor in the outfit in question at the link, for those who wish to judge for themselves exactly how much of a cat the writer is being.

#10 I think the governor looks pretty darn good. Frankly, I don't think it matters if she's in a business suit or dress-casual, libtard journos will find a reason to bitch about her looks. The green monster of jealousy is an ugly thing to see in action.

#11 Got to agree with BH6. Her outfit is hideous and she looks great. And ultimately she is a plain Jane, but a fit one. It's her personality that shines through most.

FIFY - no charge.

I think someone (Diana Reese) is a bit jealous. There aren't many 50 YO woman who can pull off wearing anything close to that.

#13 I love the photo of Palin, laughing hysterically.

#14 The left might be surprised that Palin is still around because they believe their own narrative. They believe she sunk McCain's candidacy when in fact she provided the only life to it and McCain's own blandness and "put the campaign on hold to fix the economy" gambit killed his candidacy.

Palin might have been pulled up from the minors before her time but she's got solid instincts if she ever overcomes the negatives the media has created with their falsifications.

#16 This is what passes for political commentary in the WaPo these days? The author comes off as a bitchy...runt. Meow, indeed.

#17 Ever since Richard Blackwell died, there's been a competition to be the Fashon B*tch.
