http://www.gloriafeldt.com/ heartfeldt-politics-blog/ 2008/ 10/ 7/ why-appearanc…In response to comments both pro and con on my previous post here, I have been thinking a lot about why it matters that Sarah Palin uses her looks, her cutesy down-home phrases, her flirty moves.

Depravity, Not Decency
http://noquarterusa.net/ blog/ 2008/ 10/ 06/ depravity-not-decency/At a work-related function Thursday, two bosses of mine decided to make a snarky, demeaning remark about Governor Palin in my presence.
