Behind the Anti-Palin Hysteria

There is more to the vicious and emotional anti-Palin hysteria than the political challenge of her candidacy that is described below in the September 15 post entitled The Palin Threat, and K.R. finally has diagnosed what's behind it.

Ms. Palin, because of the clear contrast that she presents, is a living rebuke and threat to all of the nation's many sexually inadequate and envious women. Her obviously happy and mutually fulfilling relationship with her alpha male husband also focuses attention on the shortcomings of, and creates similar insecurities and angst among impotent and metro sexual males.

Members of both these androgynous groups populate the corrupt academic, media, and other elitist institutions and chichi enclaves from which the irrational rage against Ms. Palin emanates. It is not an accident that neither of two notably sexually adventurous Democrat leaders who share none of Ms. Palin's political views has participated in the vehement hate spewing personal attacks against her. Notwithstanding their other personal shortcomings and foibles, neither Bill Clinton nor Ted Kennedy appears to feel personally threatened or enraged by Ms. Palin's participation in the nation's public life and political process.
