Sarah's Trigonetry

Rick Perlstein in Sarah's Trigonetry compares her speech to Nixon.

"Richard Nixon always pulled out stories of cute children and animals at crucial moments. Trig, passed from hand to hand between Palins and McCains with the rhythmic regularity of a Bob Fosse routine, is Sarah Palin's Checkers: attack me, and you're really attacking him."

What an utterly frightening parallel. My first impressions are that she'd hire someone to break in and spy on an opponent... or dress up like a commando and do it herself, moose-gun and all.
