Remember when liberals brushed aside any criticism of candidate Barack Obama being unqualified to become president because of his lack of executive experience? Well, that was then and this is now because Susan Estrich has suddenly developed "concern" over the qualifications of the Tea Party backed Republican gubernatorial candidate in New York, Carl Paladino. A skeptic might rightly believe this recent Estrich infatuation with qualifications could be inspired by the fact that Paladino is closing the gap in the polls with the Democrat candidate, Andrew Cuomo.
Here is Estrich with her newly developed qualifications concern:
The Republican nominee for governor of New York doesn't spend a lot of time talking about himself, which is both good and bad. It's good because, in truth, his surprise victory over the "establishment" favorite (and Conservative Party candidate) Rick Lazio had very little to do with his qualifications and agenda, and everything to do with his tea party-infused attacks on Albany, government and the powers that are. It's bad, of course, for precisely the same reason.
Is Carl Paladino actually qualified to be governor of New York?

Exactly. I was about to post this point myself but then I saw that you said it perfectly.
If Obama is “qualified” to be president, then anyone is qualified to hold any elective office. End of story.
Money AND connections.
Obozo’s political roots are embedded in the Chocago political machine.
I think that mask is still available in novelty stores....
0-49 in a presidential and she get’s credit

I thought a Frenchwoman had the first face transplant.
She’s a Dem partisan, what else would we expect? But, among all the on-air Dem partisans and pundits, she’s probably the most honest and objective (outside of election season). OK, so that’s not saying much, but I can’t think of any other D who’s had even one moment of honest discourse.
Technically speaking Esterich didn’t have a transplant. She just had a retread.
Has she complained about his military service yet?
You took the words right out of my mouth. (At least the ones suitable for posting.) It is quite amusing to see the left questioning anyone’s qualifications after the disater of Zero’s so-called presidency. I refuse to get angry, instead I will get even at the ballot box.
Remember in November.
Voice lessons would be better.
I can’t look at that without busting out laughing.
