Sarah has been glowingly compared with Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy and Franklin D. Roosevelt? Seriously? By sentient humans? I don’t see it. I see Sarah as another Obama, an Affirmative Action Selection, with followers and fans who confuse presentability with competence. I mean, if the young, photogenic, conservative governor of Alaska had been a man, would McCain’s VP selectors (or I) have ever even heard of him?

Take a look at her record in Alaska in just a few years. She has accomplished a lot and she is getting better and better.

Shows how much you know. She has turned out to be an unusually effective and accomplished governor of her state. From the pipeline to the governmental reforms, she has got things done that eluded every man who came before her. She has cut spending something like 20%, while we are just piling it on under Obama and before him under Bush.

I really don't care if I can beat her at Trivial Pursuit. I want her as my President.

Also, you do realize that the Kennedy mystique was bought and bottled for you to lap up?

Jack Kennedy, just like Fat Ted, was a party-boy nincompoop who wouldn’t have made it into Harvard without big donations from old Joe, and wouldn’t have made it out of Harvard without the best tutors and ringers that money could hire. “Profiles in Courage” was ghost-written in its entirety by a Kennedy family flunky, and handed an undeserved Pulitzer thanks to more bribes from the old man.

If Sarah Palin had been born with the same advantages in life that Jack Kennedy had, she’d blow him out of the water. I think she may yet do so anyway.

You sound like you're confusing Sarah with either Granholm or Sotomayor.

Cheers!

Have you noticed you don’t have a grasp on what exactly it is about Palin that defines her competence? Yet your statement is founded on an opinion of her competence.

Do you ever feel like you’re drifting helplessly in a chaotic mass of confusion?

Errrr... She getting a natural gas pipeline going that will increase US gas supplies by 8%, it's privately funded, will crate real jobs, she's reduced state spending by 16% since taking office, and she has not run any deficits.

Perhaps you don't research her her much?

Sotomayor said that she is a product of affirmative action. Palin has never said that she is a product of affirmative action. Sotomayor’s accomplishments are proof she is a product of A/A, and Palin’s accomplishments are proof she is NOT a product of A/A.

She has accomplished much. She has single handedly brought down the republican corruption in Alaska(a cause for some of the hate from the right), lowered spending, lowered taxes, pushed through a pipe line that no other governor has been able to do in Alaska. These are just some of her accomplishments. Yes, she would have been heard of if she was a man, and probably louder than she was heard as a woman before she was picked as VP candidate. BTW, she has the highest popularity of any US governor.

I see Sarah as another Obama

She was born in Kenya?

an Affirmative Action Selection

Please name the specific government or even private programs that Palin used to get where she is today.

with followers and fans who confuse presentability with competence.

So we're just a bunch of myopic dittoheads who don't any better. Okay...

I mean, if the young, photogenic, conservative governor of Alaska had been a man

But she's not a man, and that what makes her so exciting to conservatives. She has all the experience of a man but PH balanced for a woman!

would McCain’s VP selectors (or I) have ever even heard of him?

No, he would have probably chosen some RINO. But that's why McCain selected her because of her dynamic qualities she has.

“Affirmative Action Selection”? Are you serious?! I wish to God our state was governed by such an “incompetent” Governor.

Just like Barry, it has nothing to do with race or gender and EVERYTHING to do with their ethics, values and policies. AND her competence.

“I see Sarah as another Obama, an Affirmative Action Selection, with followers and fans who confuse presentability with competence.”

Is that what your vagina told you to say?
