I may have mentioned this before, but a Democrat I know who hates Palin was going on about how much she loves the movie "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" and wishes we had more politicians like Jimmy Stewart's character.
I pointed out that was completely untrue. That if "Mr. Smith" were a real person in today's Washington (and especially if he were a Republican) liberals and the center-left press would savage him for the way he spoke, which had a lot more in common with Sarah Palin that Barack Obama. They'd call him 'stupid' and play little games to try and trip him up because he didn't graduate from Harvard or Yale.
