>>>>>Ran across something at the library yesterday you would find interesting. There's this book "Going Rouge" with a big picture of Sarah Palin on the cover and "Sarah Palin" in big letters under the picture and I think "Holy crap they misspelled 'Rogue'". I even went to the librarian with it thinking maybe my bad spelling was catching up with me. She was as confused as I, we went on line looking for "Going Rogue" and sure enough, different publisher etc. On further review, the book in our hands was a collection of hit pieces on Sarah Palin. But in fact a reminder that the best reason to vote for Obama was that no matter how unready he was to be President putting Palin a 72 year old heartbeat away from the Presidency would have been a bad idea.

>>>>>I do think most of the attacks on her were unprincipled, partisan and would have been exactly the same if she had a PhD in international relations as long as she was pro-Life and was even known to have ever gone to church, but that doesn't mean they weren't right.

>>>>I don't think the attacks on her were unwarranted. It's downright scary how close she was to the presidency. A dummy who just happened to look great and gave the far right the red meat they wanted. You could pull a random person off a bus who would be more qualified than her.

>>>Hmmmm...lemme take a crack at this. ;)

>>>I know the attacks on Him weren't unwarranted. It's downright scary that He won the presidency. A dummy who just happened to look great and gave the far left the blue corn tortillas they wanted. You could pull a random person off a bus who would be more qualified than Him.

>>That is really beneath you, Jake. If you think Obama is a dummy in Sarah Palin's class you are delusional.

>Why?

The guy was the editor of the law review at Harvard. He writes and speaks with eloquence. You simply cannot say with any fairness that he is dumb. To be frank, there is a whiff of racism to it, like black people can't be smart.
