Brooks: Sarah Palin is a 'Fatal Cancer' to the GOP

"Conservative" New York Times columnist David Brooks tells his liberal Atlantic friends Sarah Palin is a "fatal cancer" at a NYC luncheon. He basically repeated the Newsweek/Washington Post line that she's too much of a six-pack Jane to be President, but with his own malignant twist.

IMO, it's fine to question Palin's qualifications, but calling her cancerous is downright nasty.
