Kathleen Parker Is Onto Something

A reader writes:

On his show today, Kojo Nnamdi asked Rep. Tom Davis, a moderate Northern Virginia Republican, if he had met Sarah Palin and what he thought of her.  This is the best he could come up with:

"I think she is an attractive candidate."

OK, I thought to myself, poor choice of words for his first response, maybe he’ll offer more.  But then, he repeats:

"I think she has a future in the party.  And I think she is an attractive candidate."
