Palin envy rampant among Republican males

  So let me get this straight, Dick Morris, Charles Krauthammer, et al.
  By taking a big a$$ tour bus across the country, by occasionally appearing to remark on the historicity of some patriotic site, by commenting on other politicians, Sarah Palin is sucking the oxygen out of the room.
  She's pulling attention away from real candidates.
  She needs to get off the stage and let the real candidates, usually old white guys, try to suck some of that oxygen, because they're struggling to get the needed attention.
  Let's prop up some of those old white guys. Let's try to cleanse them of their prior liberality, love for carbon taxes and government health care.
  Riiiiight.
  Well, let's have a new name for that kind of attitude.
  Let's call it palin envy.
  If Palin were off the stage it wouldn't mean anybody's interested in those old white guys.
  And she has a right to breathe, ya know?
  What does that tell you about YOUR candidates if they can't get anybody to notice them because one chick's in the room?
  And if she's so stupid, why are people camping out in hopes of seeing her?
  And if she's so stupid, why is the stupid press following her every move like puppies in love, even while complaining that she won't tell them where she's going?
  Why are YOU ALL trying to muscle her out of the room?
  Why are you claiming she hasn't been specific enough about policy or educated enough?
  Althouse, quoting Rush, notes that the criticism is coming from establishment people:

So here you have Dr. Krauthammer, who was a speechwriter for Mondale who obviously at a point in his life thought Ronald Reagan was a total idiot, you know, probably not schooled.  So Rowan's theory is, analyzing the analysts, that Krauthammer sees Reagan in Palin.  Wasn't particularly enamored of Reagan. 

  Byron York has something to say about this over at The Washington Examiner:

One thing many viewers have probably missed in all the horse-race speculation is that Palin is perfectly willing to discuss her positions on key issues, if anyone wants to ask. In fact, in recent days, weeks, and months, we've seen a lot of policy commentary from the former Alaska governor.

  Let's be perfectly honest about what's going on here. 
  Y'all don't know how to get any traction because y'all are part of the past and you don't know how to adapt.
  The truth is we don't want your usual politician anymore.
  Look where it's gotten us. Trillions of dollars in debt. Politicians think they can do anything, like even tweeting pictures of private parts, accidentally or not. A country rocked with unemployment, high taxes, unrest and resentment toward anyone who actually makes more money than they do.
  So figure out how to play fair ball or get outta the way, old white boys.
  Your palin envy is showing. 
  And, Governor Palin, enjoy your vacation.
