"Vilely immoral"?!? OK. Either you throw around the term "vilely" loosely or one of us is lacking a moral compass. Still, glad to see the good folks of Alaska are getting state-sponsored rape kits -- Ms. Palin's best efforts to the contrary, I'm sure.

No one votes for a VP anymore. It's a package deal. And I think it's a poor strategy to make Ms. Palin the focus as Democrats seem to be doing now ... particularly when it exposes that she's the same sort of candidate their Presidential candidate is -- an inexperienced "rockstar" type who's popular based on charisma rather than accomplishment.

All these issues will become an issue given the Dems will certainly make it one.
I'm sure they'll try to. Vocal support for government funding of rape kits should settle the matter quickly. Unless the Democrats don't want to make the campaign about issues.
