Neocons Turning on Sarah Palin?

After reading Kathleen Parker's vitriolic rant against Palin over at National Review Online, Christopher Manion thinks he knows the reason:

Now NR wants to electrocute Sarah Palin. Why? The only fundamental (in the musical sense) I recognize in this treachery is this:

When Palin was at the Convention, she was scheduled to meet with Phyllis Schlafly's supporters. They had clearly worked hardest to support an explicitly pro-life platform, and they succeeded.

But Sarah's new neocon "minders" canceled the Schlafly meeting, sequestered Sarah, and stuck her in a secret meeting with AIPAC for an entire day, at the end of which, AIPAC gave Sarah their benediction. Then, for two weeks, she was in lockdown.

Now the neocons suddenly want her out. I can draw only one conclusion: they believe her devotion to their single-minded, private international agenda is only skin-deep -- and they also recognize that Sarah Palin might be president some day. And then she will be her own woman.

Not theirs. A horrifying thought.

They have been desperate lately. I think they fear they might wind up sitting by the side of the road. Thus, the long knives come out.

Hell hath no fury...
