Stacey Abrams is the Democrats’ Sarah Palin

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.

Wiki...

“Mark Thiessen served as a speechwriter for United States President George W. Bush from 2004 to 2009 and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld from 2001 to 2006.”

Are we REALLY surprised this article is from a Bushie?

What a ludicrous pair they would make.

Biden would be a huggin’ and a chalkin’ throughout the campaign.

Well, there IS the lipstick on a pig analogy.

I don't if this is a true story, but I understand she was in Atlanta, and she asked a gas station attendant how to get to 285.

He looked her up and down and suggested she try diet and exercise....

Abrams is Palin? Which one would you rather bang?

As it happens, I remember all the details on the Sarah Palin polls over the year before she was chosen as backstabbing McCain’s VP running mate. Governor Palin had the highest popularity from in-state democrats among all Republican governors and US Senators. It’s only after the media’s (last successful) hatchet job that Palin was inaccurately perceived as something far less. It’s a shame too. She could have been a great leader - if she hadn’t gotten tired of the far-left media slime and the lack of support from RINOs.

I only voted for McCain because of Sarah Palin. And who says she was unqualified? Palin ran a huge state, and was the commander of its National Guard.

Did Al Gore ever run anything? How about Joe “Handsy” Biden?

McCain did himself in, yes it was about the economy, but the actions he chose were what did him in - that and he was an asshole.

Abrams is a racist pig. A nasty pig.

[dartuser]

Palin was the governor of an energy rich state ... and while its true that Abrams has little experience, she in fact has more executive experience than the community organizer had when he ran for POTUS.

This tells you that experience is irrelevant in liberalism ... its correct doctrine that counts.

[alternatives?]

Palin was a governor, Abrams was a state representative and Farraro was a federal representative. Both are below a governor.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Stacey Adams is the Democratic coming of Sarah Palin.

That’s hilarious!

Sarah Palin was a successful Governor of Alaska unlike Abrams who lost an election for governor. The only reason Palin resigned the governorship is because liberals kept suing her as a form of harassment and the State of Alaska wouldn’t pay her legal bills.

Palin ran Alaska.

Abrams runs her mouth.

That’s about the extent of the comparison

[Flavious_Maximus]

Geraldine Ferraro was the most unqualified VP nominee ever. spit twice.

[ealgeone]

Mcstain couldn't campaign without her. Palin drew huge crowds compared to his.

She was pre-Trump in her message.
