Meanwhile, at Daily Beast, Alex Massie has a bracing article about Sarah’s foolhardy hope of meeting with Margaret Thatcher.
As Andrew Sullivan would say, the money quote:
There is something loathsome about this attempt to use a frail 86-year-old stroke victim (who has largely retired from public life) as fodder to enhance your own domestic political agenda. It is vulgar and it is vainglorious and therefore entirely typical of Palin’s political style.
But Lady Thatcher is not a boardwalk attraction to be gawped at by tourists from Palookaville…Why should Lady Thatcher have any interest in meeting Palin? Even if the Iron Lady were not in such rusty health, what would be the point or purpose of any such encounter? What possible interest could she have in meeting a two-bit, half-term governor of Alaska?…What could they possibly talk about? One is a giant figure; the other…a carnival pygmy.”
