Stacey Abrams is the Democrats’ Sarah Palin
The Washington Post ^ | May 19, 2020 | Marc A. Thiessen

Posted on 05/20/2020 4:51:57 PM PDT by fwdude

Stacey Abrams is running a less-than-subtle campaign to be Joe Biden’s vice-presidential running mate. Republicans should hope she succeeds. If selected, she would displace Sarah Palin as the least-qualified person ever to serve on a major-party ticket.

Biden should understand this, because he saw firsthand how much damage Palin’s selection did to then-Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), the Republican presidential nominee in 2008. Preelection polls showed that 6 out of 10 Americans said Palin was not qualified for the job, and a Stanford University study found that she cost McCain more than 2 million votes.

Bull shit! Stacy Abrams could not carry Sarah Palin’s shoes. This is a family forum or I would use another term.

“Palin was the first Republican rock star. No one else drew in the deplorables, until Trump.”

Palin attracted them and McCain repelled them with his dumbassery.

I know!! He would have gotten about 20% of the vote if it weren’t for Sarah! Marc Thiessen should be ASHAMED of himself!

“Interesting because this piece is enraging both conservatives AND leftists for completely different reasons.“

Enraging conservatives? Boring, more like it.

She owes $50,000 in back taxes and also owes $170,000 in credit card and student loans. At 45, and no children and never married, there are rumors, with her support of LGBT groups, that she may be a lesbian. Abrams may be the Dems’ mule to carry their Cultural Marxist, Identity Politics into the presidential race. If people are so stupid to swallow Thiessen’s swill, they are too stupid to find their way out of the dark.

Sarah Palin was that rare gleaming gold nugget on the political landscape.

The treatment of Sarah Palin during the campaign was the work of Steve Schmidt, who recommended her. He recommended Sarah and then sabotaged her. Now he is a vocal anti-Trumper SOB who left the GOP over President Trump’s immigration policy.

Marc A. Thiessen doesn’t ‘get it’... Anyone who objects to Stacey Abrams is a racist, sexist, and maybe a homophobe. Liberal thugs don’t play nice when someone stands between them and a power grab.

The Washington Post allows a few token conservatives but if you wander too far off the Plantation, they’ll take you down...

You’re warned Thiessen.

(then again, trashing Sarah Palin was a bow to the thugs who run your paper... have you ever done the reverse? Trashed a liberal because you were trashing a conservative? Nope? Anyone at your paper ever use that technique when they were trashing a conservative? Pull in a liberal ‘example’ to show they were ‘fair’? Never. It’s a one-way liberal ‘elite’ thug BS style pushed through intimidation. Next time leave it out and see what happens. Three fingers or four?)

Hi.

I’m going to be nice and say Stacey Abrams is a heffer with an IQ to match.
