Miss Nebraska Teresa Scanlan has at age 17 become the youngest Miss America to win the pageant since its debut 90 years ago.
Becoming the first Cornhusker State resident to win the crown, Scanlan beat out 52 other beauty queens to win a $50,000 scholarship at the Planet Hollywood casino-resort in Las Vegas on Saturday night.
...The blond teen told the Associated Press she plans to register to vote when she turns 18 next month and will defer her enrollment at Virginia's Patrick Henry College to complete her reign.
She then plans to go to law school and eventually become a politician and "stand up for what's right, stand up for integrity and honesty.

"You know when it came to that situation, it was actually based on espionage, and when it comes to the security of our nation, we have to focus on security first and then people's right to know, because it's so important that everybody who's in our borders is safe and so we can't let things like that happen, and they must be handled properly," she said.
Pretty girl. In the red dress, she looks rather like Taylor Swift.
Patrick Henry College ??? How did she slip by - she must be from a Conservative Christian Family - Praise the Lord !!!
You must have watched last night, when she performed her classical piano piece. It was wild; really terrific.
No, there was a photo with the source article. We watched “Wake of the Red Witch” (with a young John Wayne) last night. Tropical locations just aren’t that great in black and white.
Libs to Teresa: “You’re dead!”
Get a cup of tea to that hot chick, stat. Who knows, it’s a far shot but maybe she’s serious about all “stand up for what’s right, stand up for integrity and honesty” stuff.
The barf alert came when Miss Arkansas said was that one of her heroes was Michelle Obama, because she is so “classy and so sophisticated”. She’s a “role model” to all of us.
An incipient fascist, no doubt!
Skinny looking thang.
She’s very pretty, but as a mom of two 17 yr olds I have to say she looks at least 10 years older than that.
My barf was when Miss Massachusetts stated something about the real Tea Party being about Tea. What a dumb shit. I cannot believe that she doesn’t understand that both Tea Parties have been about TAXES.

So...she’s supposed to be a porker?
Check out the pics above your post. She’s actually pretty muscular, in a feminine kinda way. ;o)
It’s so nice to see that we are raising such nice, clean, articulate...and very smart...young women.
17? WOW!
Don’t know I didn’t watch the whole show. I figured that it was going to be another lib-love fest when I saw the Joy whats-her-name was one of the judges. I was shocked when I found out that a conservative won. I would love to see the tally sheet from Joy on her scores.
