A Bit Surprising
Except that there are other left-wing feminist bloggers who are cheering the Palin pick. Reclusive Leftist, who says,
UPDATE: Greetings, Instapundit readers. You probably won’t be here long, as this is a genuinely feminist, leftist blog. But while you’re here I shall do my uttermost to be polite, and I ask the same of you.

The Palin pick is fricking genius, and since I’m a blogger and this is my blog I should probably take a minute here to blog about it.
Why is it a genius move? Because of two things:
- It will make it easier for center-right Hillary supporters to vote Republican in the fall, and
- (this is the genius part) It will complete the alienation of the rest of the Hillary supporters from the Obama camp. How? That’s easy — the Obamabots will do it themselves. Go read the Washington Post blog or anywhere online where the Palin pick is being discussed, and you’ll see the trademark Obama misogyny already out in full force. She’s been on the ticket for two seconds and already the Obamabots are saying she “looks like a porn star,” they’re making rude remarks about her childbearing, they’re ridiculing her intelligence.
Keep it up, possums. Keep it up. Just when some Hillary supporters were trying to forget what misogynist freaks you all are, now you’re going to remind us all over again.
Brilliant fucking move by McCain.
