What has she done in her career? Does she have the experience to govern? Isn’t she just a name and a pretty face in expensive clothes? All questions asked by Democrats (I’m being nice) regarding Sarah Palin as McCain’s pick for Vice President.
But Caroline Kennedy isn’t put under the same kind of scrutiny.
Apparently, qualifications don’t matter to the left as long as you don’t hunt moose.
One this is certain: if Kennedy’s last name were Palin she wouldn’t be anointed.
I’m curious if she’ll sit down with some prominent Big Apple media fixtures like Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric and subject herself to their murder boards.
Obama is certainly pushing for his ally, no doubt. It could only benefit him to have a high-profile advocate on the Hill and Kennedy will certainly be more malleable than Clinton.
And what about this concept of change? The Kennedy family is an institution. They’ve been around for decades and have been consistently plagued by scandal and drama. Hardly what I’d call a new viewpoint.
As Kennedy travels around the state of New York, not saying much and refusing to answer questions about her lack of experience, I suspect there would be some stuttering and stammering in her responses but she’d hardly be called a fool as Palin was.
We always knew the Democrats had a double standard. They nominated the most inexperienced candidate in nearly a century to run for president, while they sought to destroy the Republican nominee for vice president because she wasn’t elitist or experienced enough.
What they need to learn is that stature is not a substitute for substance, even in New York. But apparently, qualifications don’t matter to the left as long as you don’t hunt moose.

Nah - the Kennedys are more into alcohol.
Caroline Schlosberg is getting ready for her ascendency to the Presidency in 2016 after the Messiah becomes the Monarch of the World!
Why do people vote for these jerks?
I have noticed that about the illegal president, when he talks off the cuff, he will say 5 or 6 words in a sentence and leave the last word up in the air, drives me goofy..
“That’s disgusting”
My regrets for offending you...sometimes I inadvertently go over the top —not often, but sometimes. This obviously was one of those times.
Thanks for the rebuke...brings me back to earth.
Best Regards,
