Meh. kid's trying to get famous. Now he's just basically repeating stuff he said a couple of months ago, but as he fell out of attention, and nobody gave a shit, he is insisting on repeating it. True or not, who cares. I don't want him getting famous off of it. Maybe she was looking to profit off of her fame, write a book or have a show. Is he any better? Nope. I couldn't care less about this loser. I wish he'd just shut up already.Or, rather, I wish the media would just ignore him, and quit giving him an opportunity to voice this crap.
Honestly, who cares? Who cares what this stupid kid says, who cares what Palin does, who cares what the cost of tea is in China? It's not like Palin will matter in a year. She'll go around the country barnstorming her "peeps", fading into obscurity like every other failed former VP candidate has. She'll be the Mondale of the Republican party (failure wise).
Actually she has some really good handlers that will keep her in the press for years. The "Death Panel" comment while 100% false was brilliant. Absolutely scared the chit out of people.
Yes, he did. The other examples I could think of, Kemp or Stockdale, i decided against using because that would've been insulting to them to mention her in the same breath. They at least accomplished something prior to running. So I went with Mondale, who got slaughtered in the 84 election. Pat Choate probably would've been a better reference point.
It was too easy to do Gerraldine Ferraro. GF was in the House of Reps for 6 years though. And Vice-Chairwoman and Secretary of the House Democratic Caucus. Her main accomplishment wasn't that she was hot, or a mayor of a piss-ant town and Governor of a state that, while Russia is "right next door", has a population base just slightly more than that of Portland. Not saying Ferraro was super qualified, but she at least was qualified.
they were slightly more than Palins, but he had a few. I edited this to show that I didn't mean that in a snide "well, he was just SLIGHTY more qualified"..I meant that in the sense that while his qualifications weren't terribly much, they were more than hers.
Well, I kind of disagree. I think they were both inadequately qualified to be VP, let alone President. A governor of a hick state, and a freshman senator with no major legislative victories to his name. It's no wonder turnout was down over 2004.
