Answers in Biology

Atrios;

There's never a proper left-right analogy, but imagine if John Kerry had put Dennis Kucinich on the Veep ticket and then lost. Kucinich would have increased stature in the Democratic party, and probably be quite popular with "the base," but the press would mostly ignore him other than to occasionally sneer. I'm not equating Palin and Kucinich, just trying to imagine who might occupy a similar space on the left.

So why all the focus on Palin? Say it with me kids..

They want to fuck her.

When you look at why the media goes ape-shit.. it's all about the sex. This is why the "octomom" never got a reality teevee show. People just didn't see her as a sex object, hence her 15 minutes lasted about 15 minutes.
