Flying off the handle

CNN has a weird commentary piece by Reuben Navarrette on Sarah Palin here.

The part that really caught my eye was this:

You'd think the presidential campaign was about conservatives picking on urbanites. It wasn't. Sure, some Republicans probably made a mistake by using phrases such as "real America" or "real Americans" as a rallying cry for the base. Americans who live in cities might have thought they were being slighted.

( And that made me mad, as you might expect )
