Ok a question for all you smart people out there.
Is the McCain/Palin ticket the first "No Lawyer" ticket we have had since (arguably) the Roosevelt/Fairbanks ticket of 1904?
I say arguably because TR did go to law school, he just didn't finish.
If we want to count TR then we have not had a no-lawyer ticket since Grant/Wilson in 1872.

So TR went to law school, but did not become a lawyer.
Ugh. Which is more important, the law-school *training* (presumably inculcating certain mindsets), or actually being a practicing lawyer?
Have to ponder this one a while.

OTOH, I once thought (a long time ago) that an engineer president would fix everything.
Jimmah cured me of THAT notion!

"Is the McCain/Palin ticket the first "No Lawyer" ticket we have had since (arguably) the Roosevelt/Fairbanks ticket of 1904?" Good question. I don't know the answer, but I'm changing my tagline. (That probably ought to be a requirement this month --- {Kidding!})

If that is true, that is a great point.
