Jezebel reports that CNN’s Campbell Brown, whom you may remember from films such as “Tucker Bounds and the Chamber of Lameness,” last night “got her Olbermann on … and ranted us into fangirldom.”
Brown’s beef: Gov. Sarah Palin has been the victim of sexism — by her own campaign, which has shielded its V.P. pick from the media like the “delicate flower” that she very clearly isn’t. I’m not quite as ga-ga as Jez is here, as Campbell’s rant lacks the rhetorical wink showing us that she knows what we all do: that the real reason Palin isn’t talking — especially while on her embarrassing Meet World Leaders! whirlwind tour — is not because she has no Y chromosome, but because she has no goddamn clue. Still, it’s a satisfying/infuriating way to pass 1.3 minutes before Nov. 4.
