Hoffman's Fault!

One of Ann Althouse's correspondents blames Sarah Palin, the great hope of the Reaganites weird-looking Doug Hoffman and all his annoying references to Reagan:

On TV, Hoffman comes across as exceedingly weird, skinny and overeager with googly eyes, bright yellow teeth, and an odd, halting way of speaking. He kept repeating a slogan that he was a common-sense Reagan conservative and common sense isn't so common any more. It got annoying. Owens, by contrast, is big and rugged-looking. He's an Air Force veteran and he has that military solidity, calm and self-possession.
