Palin's Starbursts

Andrew Sullivan -- my favorite gay conservative blogger -- found this quote from Rich Lowry:
"I'm sure I'm not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, "Hey, I think she just winked at me." And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. This is a quality that can't be learned; it's either something you have or you don't, and man, she's got it."

This calls to mind Lily Tomlin with the cartoon bluebirds fluttering around her in "9 to 5." What a weird thing to say. Though I guess they can't really fall back on admiring her rhetoric or her pronunciation or her question-answering skills.
