I hesitate to say this, but I have a truly visceral dislike of Sarah Palin. And I don't think I'd be considered a "lib-nut." Until very recently, I've been a registered Republican my entire adult life (now Independent), and I've voted Republican in every presidential race thus far. I'm not this time because there are no Republicans running, and unbeknownst to me at the time, there wasn't one running in the previous two elections, either. Palin strikes me as the pretty girl with certain "skiils" who never had to try that hard to get what she wanted, and acts shocked and surprised to find that others who actually do the work are offended by her unearned success. But still feels entitled because, well. . . she wants it. Sarah Palin may be the only person alive who makes me miss Hillary Clinton.
You hit the nail on the head MS. Although, being an attractive woman can also be detrimental to one's career on the flip side. There are many accomplished woman who not only have had to break the glass ceiling, but also had to work harder to prove that they just weren't another pretty face. Then there are the Margaret Thatchers of the world, who when you get to know and admire them for their class and intellect, become beautiful woman in their own right. Sarah Palin is just ugly to me for the very reasons you listed above.
