Ooh, True Blood is a show I've been meaning to get my hands on somehow...if only because I like the premise and after Twilight it's time for me to get back to some decently executed vampire fiction.

The thing about the whole "Palin breaking glass ceilings" story they're trying to spoonfeed us is that she was chosen precisely so that the Republicans could either pit her against Hillary or crow about how they had the balls to select a female running mate while the Democrats chickened out. That and the pander to religious conservatives.

Which is a longwinded way of saying that she was not chosen for her intellectual or experiential merits, and is thus not breaking a single glass ceiling at all.
