At the DNC convention Gore compared Obama to Lincoln.
Here’s Lincoln’s time-line: http://www.historyplace.com/lincoln/index.html
How does that ever compare to Obama??????????
Brown was in on the Obama promotion from the beginning. I well remember her on Tim Russert’s Sunday morning show after the last Dem convention giving her opinion and agreeing with Tim that Obama would make a great candidate. He had no experience, they admitted, but “that might be a good thing.” Guffaw, guffaw. “No one has anything against him. He hasn’t done anything to offend anyone yet.” More Guffaws and those looks that pass between people when they have an Aha moment.
It was chilling. I knew these idiots had found their cause and were going to run with it. Obama’s campaign started that day, possibly before he even knew about it.
Of all people to criticize Sarah Palin’s candidacy Campbell Brown is the least creditable now that Russert’s dead.
When she is asked about her experience as compared to Joe Biden she should simply say, that Joe's own party in Iowa was asked whether his 30 plus years in the senate was good enough to make him president material, and 99% said no.
Palin should say, Joe has been in the same chair for 30 years. When did he fight his party. When did he put his career on the line for change. Or was he the reason change is needed. If you can't get change in 30 years its time to look for some new faces.
Snotty, nasty, insufferable...the new requirements for “journalists.”
Mort Kondracke said tonight that Obama had experience because he had spoken and thought and argued. I would posit that Sarah Palin has done all of those things as well. The big and, to Mort, important difference is that she has not done these things in Washington, D.C.
LOL! Are they so stupid? Well, I guess they are! By comparing Obama’s experience with Palin’s, they are comparing their PRESIDENTIAL candidate to our VP! In other words, they are implying that Obama is only fit to be second fiddle.
Alma Dale’s father ...
Campbell Brown’s father...
Brown, 64, grew up in Louisiana politics. He was in competition for Louisiana’s top job almost from Day One in Ferriday, as state senator in a sprawling six-parish district.
A closet liberal, an unashamed Democrat, Brown endeared himself to the Louisiana press by forging the reformist “Open Meetings” law during early Senate days.
Brown married into wealth — twice.
He was and is a big-mouthed, name-dropping, country-dropping, restaurant-hopping, party-going Louisiana politician.
Before his retirement from public office, Jim Brown was one of the longest serving public officials in Louisiana’s history. He was first elected to public office in l971 as one of Louisiana’s youngest State Senators.
In 1980, he was elected as Louisiana’s Secretary of State.
He was elected Louisiana Commissioner of Insurance in 1991.
Brown is married to Gladys Solomon, and is the father of three daughters and one son.
Jim is also writing a new book about his six month stay at Oakdale Federal Prison. Readers will find insights about prison life, and Jim will discuss events that took take place in prison he was reluctant to write about while he was still there.
Unbelievable. I see the “Bash Palin” memo is being followed by just about every “journalist” at “The Most Trusted Name in News”.
Campbell Brown is hoping that she can be next in line when the MTP host job finally gets sorted out. I wonder how many high-heel cracks there are in that glass ceiling.
Hey, Campbell, maybe you should move to Alaska and take an anchor job there. They might actually make decisions based on merit!
The media said for weeks that Kathleen Sebelius, Dem Gov of KS was on Obama’s short list.
Nobody batted an eye.
Nobody questioned Sebelius’s qualifications.
Her botched response to the Greensburg tornado was just like
Kathleen Blanco’s to Katrina.
The CNN anchors this morning were furious at the Republican consultants.
It was amazing ,even after factoring in their predictable and expected bias,
to see their furrowed brows and angry and demanding questions.
I do believe our Governor Palin has hit a big, big nerve.
And sent the Democrats into a tizzy.
It is OK for a man to have little experience and run for high office. It is risky and dangerous for a female to do the same.
Thanks RATs and MSM. I'm sure your misogyny is going to help draw tons of votes to your anointed candidate.
Who is Campbell Brown?
I am so offended by last nights CNN braodcast with Campbell Brown and the soft balling CNN does for OBama. When does a news agency who claims no bias get called out for wearing their political persuasion on their sleeves? Campbell’s smugness last night over her beating up of an obviously unprepared McCain staffer is something that I think has turned her into a staffer for Obama. When has she ever grilled an Obama staffer for the same experience question. She never answered his question about Obama’s experience either…she just kept attacking him with a smug smile. She was a beautiful anchor...ugly soul
By the way...did she say the Constitution dictates a President needs experience????where does it say that? ignorance is bliss I guess
