Rush: These attacks on Governor Palin are attacks on you and attacks on me.
Sarah Palin did not follow the prescriptions necessary. She's good at virtually everything she does: daughter, athlete, outdoors, person, musician, wife, mother, businesswoman, mayor, governor. But she doesn't approach those things the way others that sit in judgment might have. Let me give you a little illustration.
Questions from Gwen Ifill tonight, all hypothetical:
"You were an accomplished basketball player. Tell us the three most influential WBA or NBA players in your playing style."
Sarah Palin, "I can't think of any. I don't watch television. I enjoy playing basketball."
Ifill: "Have you ever attended an NBA or major college basketball game?"
Palin: "No."
Drive-By conclusion: "Palin isn't serious about her sport." The only problem is, she was an outstanding player.
These recipes that people have! She didn't go to an elite school, didn't get an elite degree, and don't have network friends in Washington and New York. That's why she's not qualified, in their eyes.
