According to Palin, the Republican governor "has the cojones that our president does not have to look out for all Americans — not just Arizonans — but all Americans in this desire of ours to secure our borders."
No, there's nothing wrong with celebrating a woman's "masculine" qualities. In the political realm, however, such statements come with well-endowed subtext, and Palin's "cojones" comment rams her own platform straight into the ground.
