The Democrats nominating Barrack Obama was the epitome of tokenism. Ferraro was right. If he wasn’t black he wouldn’t have made it out of Iowa.

This tactic is going to backfire on them horribly. Sarah Palin is NOT going to like this...

Joe Conason is the most bitter Liberal out there. It must suck to wake up and be him every day.

Heard on another thread that on some news show, one TV-face said Obama was more experienced than Palin.
The other TV-face, said, “at what?”

Obama was not picked. - He was elected.
Palin was picked.

Always a good barometer: if Salon hates it, it has to be good.........
Thank the humorless liberals for clearing things up. I miss the LA Times editorial recommendations for tipping me which way to vote on things..............

If picking Palin was is the epitome of tokenism, then what the heck was picking Obama? Please!!!!! That is part of the genius of the Palin pick, they knew she would be attacked for inexperience and each time it was raised the ball would go right back to bambi, who has even less experience and he is the top of the ticket. The moonbats cannot attack Palin without attacking their own candidate at the same time.

Palin O'bama is the epitome of tokenism, exactly what
conservative Republicans liberal Deomcrats have always claimed to scorn, until today,....
But if Palin'sO'Bama's résumé is limited, to put it politely, she possesses the only two qualities that McCain MSM now seems to consider essential: She is a rightleft-wing religious ideologue with female gender black racial characteristics.

The same people were singing a far different tune about Geraldine Ferraro.

Having served as governor of Alaska for less than two years -- and as mayor of a small town before that -- her qualifications for national office are minimal. Palin is the epitome of tokenism. . . . Having served as a senator from Illinois for less than four years, rarely showing up for work during that time--and as a state legislator before that--his qualifications for national office are minimal (especially for the #1 office, not the #2). Obama is the epitome of tokenism.

"LOL! Moonbats exploding on a Friday night.....don't you just love it."
I love it. Did you hear the noise earlier today when the news came out that Palin would be McCain's running mate, yep....the was all the Dems / Liberals heads exploding.
I am so happy that McCain has chosen Palin as his running mate. A great day for Republicans / Conservatives, IMHO

Ya, Obama’s “community organizing” so surpasses that of a sitting governor...
These people are so blind it is amazing. Keep it up! The American public isn't as stupid as you seem to think.
