Meghan McCain defend's Palin's family

McCain's daughter, Meghan, has a blog (I didn't know that ten minutes ago). On this blog she sticks up for Palin and her family (in "Daughters"). She does it from the prospective of a daughter whose father has been in the spotlight her whole life. Too often people forget that these aren't characters on television. Politicians and their families are real people. Human beings like you and I. Part of the reason why politics get so nasty is that we dehumanize those politicians we like and dislike.

(I know that I've been writing a lot about Palin, hell the whole blogosphere has been writing a lot about Palin. My only defence is that I'm watching CNN and they've talked about nothing else in an hour)
