Some of the post-election Sarah Palin stories -- Palin the diva or wacko, Wasillabilly shopping sprees, Palin the clueless during debate prep and the like --generated lots of gleeful snark. They hit the news for their irony, strangeness and humor. Palin responded with staged "outrage" at the press, the blogoshpere and the unnamed McCain campaign sources.

Buried within these stories is a more telling bit: her strange reluctance to go on stage with, or to acknowledge the presence of, New Hampshire's GOP senate and house candidates, while campaigning in New Hampshire. Her intolerance of moderates is a recurring character trait that will serve progressives well if she continues to rise in the GOP.

Ack. Why would I thank Mark Penn, the king of spin and sleaze? Because his tactics in the spring inoculated Barack against the coming onslaught.
