Conservatives Begin Questioning Palin’s Heft

This AP article was at FOX, but has since been removed. You can read about how it went the way of the Dodo, if you're interested. I find the article itself amusing:

Conservatives Begin Questioning Palin’s Heft

While most are calling her a VPILF, it's interesting that some conservatives think she's chunky. Honestly, I think she's in pretty good shape for a lady who's popped out so many babies. Maybe that's it, perhaps Conservatives are now wondering who Trig is. How'd she dump the pounds so fast? Is there some Alaskan Fundamentalist diet plan the rest of us don't know about? See, now they've got me questioning her heft, too. I propose we heft her across the border, or perhaps even hurl her overboard in rough waters, and find out how she fares.

A growing number of Republicans are expressing concern about Sarah Palin’s uneven - and sometimes downright awkward - performances in her limited media appearances.

Conservative columnist Kathleen Parker, a former Palin supporter, says the vice presidential nominee should step aside. Kathryn Jean Lopez, writing for the conservative National Review, says “that’s not a crazy suggestion” and that “something’s gotta change.”

Tony Fabrizio, a GOP strategist, says Palin’s recent CBS appearance isn’t disqualifying but is certainly alarming. “You can’t continue to have interviews like that and not take on water.”

“I have not been blown away by the interviews from her, but at the same time, I haven’t come away from them thinking she doesn’t know s-t,” said Chris Lacivita, a GOP strategist. “But she ain’t *** Cheney, nor Joe Biden and definitely not Hillary Clinton.”

"*** Cheney". Giggle, giggle. Something about FOX's system censoring Cheney's first name tickles me. Dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick!

She ain't @#$% Cheney, either, so at least that's a point in her favor. Unfortunately, she is *** Quayle...
