"digging in is a way of showing certitude, and they're showing certitude because they're lost." - peggy noonan

I like Peggy Noonan because while she is conservative, she noted that Sarah Palin did not have the necessary tools for the v.p. spot, and also because she shares her opinion oh so gently. I could learn from this.

She had a few observations on the economy last week, and while she waxed a bit maudlin about losing generations like Sully, I think she's right on the money about people digging in when they are lost. It's that whole "the lady doth protest too much, methinks" thing....
