Sarah Palin is no Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt played Achilles in the movie Troy. Sarah Palin doesn't know who Achilles was, nor what the significance of his heel is.
The debate confirmed a lot of things tonight, many of them inspiring things, many of them scary things, but one thing that is absolutely certain: Sarah Palin doesn't know what "Achilles heel" means.
My 9-year old, who has seen Troy (we're a liberal house, after all), knows who Achilles was and what his heel is all about.
But Sarah Palin doesn't know. You'd think at one of the five colleges she attended en route to her BA, she would've learned about this guy. But then again, she was pretty clear that she doesn't like looking back to the past.
