Don't you think maybe, just maybe, the scrutiny is due to her behavior? Every politician faces a ton of scrutiny, and it's not always fair, but she sets herself up to be hammered over and over again. This is simply another example of that.

Not all of it.
Did she do anything to warrant the rampant speculation, and temporary belief by millions of liberal blog addicted voters, that her youngest son was actually her grandson?
Besides, we're over a year past when any of it mattered and people are still getting their rocks off at her expense. It strikes me as just a bit odd. Obviously, she really bothers some people. For someone so irrelevant, she sure has become relevant. Why? I have no idea.
