Nat Hentoff Picks Palin
Nat Hentoff is one of the few ardent pro-lifers on the Left (he has described himself as a "Jewish atheist civil-libertarian pro-lifer") and now he has entered the world of VP politics with his rousing support for Sarah Palin in a column entitled: "John McCain, Here is Your Vice President:"
Because of Palin's reputation as a maverick, and her initial reduction of state spending (including pork-barrel spending), life-affirming Palin connects with voters and has been mentioned as a possible vice presidential running mate for John McCain.
She would be a decided asset — an independent Republican governor, a woman, a defender of life against the creeping culture of death and a fresh face in national politics, described in "the Almanac of National Politics" as "an avid hunter and fisher with a killer smile who wears designer glasses and heels, and hair like modern sculpture."
