Indie Mea Culpa

Speaking of tabloid magazine material, I could say I told you so. Jill.

But what's this tiresome Palin bashing? (You still think you were right about her, huh?) Let me ask you this--what was the first major profile of Palin and where?

New research shows that voters give female governors significantly higher marks than their male counterparts on such qualities as honesty, cooperation and caring—as well as toughness. And at a time when the national debate has become poisonously partisan, governors like Napolitano, 49, and Palin, 43, are making their mark with a pragmatic, postpartisan approach to solving problems, a style that works especially well with the large numbers of independent voters in their respective states.

I'd say she compares well with the current Secretary of Homeland Security. And The One.

Looking forward to the evolution of your mea culpa...
