Eric - as much as I despise Palin, there is still no evidence that what she said, and the map she put out, had ANY influence on this guy. So, how is she a hypocrite? How is she NOT taking responsibility? She is not denying she said what she did.
If there was some proof and she did not 'man up', well, then I would agree with you. But until they can show that what she said had an influence on this guy, I fali to see how she is being hypocritical.
