So forgettable, in fact, that most people "forget" that the estimable Charles Krauthammer wrote for / worked for him back in the day.
It's one of the reasons I blow off a lot of what CK (as in FUBO, if you catch my drift) has to say.
Cheers!

I’m sorry for your loss. 94 years of life is a gift of God. But you’re right, time doesn’t take away the hurt and the loss.

Well, I had forgotten that CK wrote for Mondale. Interesting.
The most memorable thing for me about Mondale was when Reagan teased him in the debate about being too young to run for President.
Great moment, IMO!

A noble and worthy political opponent. I always shall think of her as an American first, liberal second.

Sad news, I didn’t agree with her politics but she was a lady and a good human being. She’s been fighting this for years, may she rest in peace.
To: CodeToad
Just said that exact same thing to my husband. She wasn’t nasty.

I'm always amazed by these things. I still remember all the hugs and kisses everyone blew to Molly Ivins. I didn't know whether to laugh or be sick.
I well understand the desire not to speak ill of the dead, but we don't have to go on and on about much we liked her, etc.... She was a political opponent who favored much of the destruction that has taken place in this country. She was a far left liberal who was often haughty and arrogant during the 1984 campaign, especially in the debate with George Bush the elder.
I would never have wished suffering on her and believe she bore it well. All our condolences are with the family of anyone who takes a loss. Her battle has been fought and we wish her well and Godspeed. But remember also, that many of those battles were with us. She was no friend to our beliefs at all. Rest in peace, Ms. Ferraro.

Palin's got a message on FB now:
On the Passing of Geraldine Ferraro Palin's tweet was the first I saw of this news.
I've already seen a number of Lefties complaining the press are comparing Ferraro to Palin and not Hillary, ignoring Hillary wasn't even considered for VP let alone chosen. While Hillary achieved a lot in her own campaign, nearly saving us from Obama, she came up short of being a nominee.
I enjoyed Ferraro on Crossfire. She seemed like a principled Liberal, a breed that is all but extinct among Democrats today.

The last time I saw her on FNC she was being interviewed from her living room.
She was not feeling well and could not make it to a stuido. Could have been an interview by Greta during the last elections.

Sure you have. The most common form is called Leukemia.
There are several others though. I have three family members suffering from different, rare forms of it now.
