As easy as...

It's easy to follow conventional wisdom as Sophie Elmhirst often does even if she does it better than most people:

A final thought for Sarah Palin. Perhaps it should be less of a thought and more of an epitaph, but I am trying to ignore the sense of total collapse in Palin’s career that the past two weeks have inspired. Palin’s resignation from her role as governor of Alaska has foxed everyone – apart from Fox, that is, which probably wants her to become news anchor, chief fisherwoman and all-round patron saint. The rest of us are bewildered. What is the woman playing at? Is it part of an elaborate corruption cover-up, or the first step in one of the most misconceived presidential campaigns in history? Either way, the main worry is that we might lose Palin from the public stage altogether. This would be a catastrophe; the woman is a comic genius. Following her on Twitter is like being attached to an intravenous drip of hilarity. We need people like her to brighten these dark days. So, the message to SP is clear: stay with us! Have a bash at 2012 – why not? Make some more speeches! Tweet away! You’re way too much fun.

What is it with some women and Sarah Palin that make them think that it is acceptable to dismiss her as a political bimbo? I have an idea, but it may be too analytical when this fact seems to have to do more with primitive instincts.
