And Sarah Palin Wasn't Qualified ??

[irvin88]

WASHINGTON — Caroline Kennedy is interested in the Senate seat that would open once Hillary Rodham Clinton becomes secretary of state, according to a close relative who says the Kennedy clan is fully behind her rising to the office previously held by her Uncle Robert.

"I know she's interested," Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Friday.

Once Clinton is confirmed to President-elect Barack Obama's Cabinet, New York Gov. David Paterson will appoint someone to fill the seat for two years. Democrats said Caroline Ken nedy and Paterson have already spoken about the seat, and she is interested.

Kennedy is the daughter of President John F. Kennedy and a niece of brothers Edward and Robert.

If you check her credentials, you'll find someone who's been politically active for years.

Just like the nanny babe, Drescher. If they are a gigantic liberal, then they are just fine.

The only qualification for office is how liberal you are. Example: Obama the socialist liberal beats Clinton the progressive liberal. See, its easy to understand.:D

[BrAinPaiNt]

At this point, with the current stuff going on in Illinois, they might be better off bringing someone in from out of state to take the Senate seat.:laugh1:

[Aikbach]

If you check her credentials, you'll find someone who's been politically active for years.She's never been a mayor, state senator, state house member, governor,lt.governor, congresswoman, cabinet member, her credentials are she's a well known Democrat related to a former president.

Same credentials that Hillary Clinton ran on in 2000 however.

Not even a city council person or a community organizer. :lmao2:

Someone's bitter. Want a hug?

[burmafrd]

Being liberal and a Kennedy means to the MSM and other liberals that you are qualified to run for any office.

[BigWillie]

Since when is Caroline Kennedy running for VP?

[Aikbach]

Since when is Caroline Kennedy running for VP? Good point, any yokel should be a senator, we should hold e-bay auctions for it and let it go to the highest bidder...oh wait.

[arglebargle]

Some of you guys are funny: You complain bitterly about corrupt career politicians, and then when someone comes along who is not a politician, you complain that they aren't experianced at it. ;)

[BigWillie]

:lmao2:

Man some people are STILL bitter.

Well I guess the comedy of errors will continue from this election.

[Garland powerplay]

Give them a round trip around the world w/ updates and come back in 4 years.

In response to the title of this thread, no...Sarah Palin is not qualified. The majority of American voters have already decided this. But rest assured, she will be given another chance at national politics at some point in her lifetime. For her sake, it had better be before she loses her sex appeal among conservative voters. That was the one thing she had going for her during the McCain campaign.

Wait! The American voters decided SHE wasn't qualified?

But Obama was?

That was their decision?

Well, let's put it this way. One is going to be the next U.S. president in January 2009. The other will be keeping an eye on the Russians from her house. I hope this answers your question.

You know she never said that. You apparently use Saturday Night Live as your main source of information.

SNL was probably a more accurate assessment of her qualifications than anything pumped out by the GOP and Dittoland. But I will give credit for Palin playing up the Dittohead role, as those type of voters weren't exactly enthused about McCain's limp campaign. For that, she gets brownie points. But anyone with a brain could see right through that ploy. It was a cheap injection by McCain in order to garner Dittohead support.

Funny you say that... Lorne Michaels, after her visit to SNL, said that he didn't agree with her politics and had reservations about her, but she came into enemy territory and won them over. He said she was highly intelligent and easy to like and she wasn't being portrayed fairly in the media...

So...

Well, I think that's obvious.

Right, one will be governing Alaska and the other will probably be impeached at the rate he is going.

Probably be impeached...:lmao2:

I'm sure the GOP will keep trying to come up with new angles, ya know, just to waste taxpayer money. I can't wait to see what they come up with. It should be entertaining.

[burmafrd]

Just like all the investigations the lib want into the BUSH administration. VC, you really do not get it do you? Every rock you throw damages your glass house.

This guy is a festering sewer of rats and every time we switch on the news another one of his buddies is being investigated.

Laugh all you want.

Just admit you guys got sold a lousy bag of goods.

I will gladly take my chances with that vs. 4 more years of GOP drama. So far, much ado about nothing coming from Dittoland.

[VCDefectors]

The difference is that the dems went after Bush on issues of competency and overstepping Constitutional boundaries, not the kind of tabloid garbage being pumped out by the GOP.

As Gen. Powell states, it's time for the GOP (and Dittoland for that matter) to stop throwing stones and just focus on taking a long, hard look in the mirror. I know that must be a difficult pill to swallow, but it needs to happen. The days of divisive politics in America are over.

Now I know some will see that as the left being hypocritical, but it really isn't if you stop and think about it. It's like when you have a friend or loved one who is sick in the head, you can only dance around the issue for so long before it's time for tough love and tough medicine.

I can only speak for myself but I gotta say that this is pretty insulting. This post suggests that the only reason anybody liked Palin is because she looked good in a dress. Why can't it be that she was what the true Conservatives in the Republican Party identified with and wanted to have represent them?

Is she pretty? Of course she is. Is that why I liked her? No, not at all. This is akin to saying that the only reason Black women voted for Obama was because he was cute.

It's just not accurate IMO.

I realize that sounds like a pretty shallow thing to say, but it's true. Sex sells and it was no coincidence that McCain went for the lowest common denominator right at a time when his campaign was falling apart.

Well anyway, I don't mean to keep rehashing this stuff because its not really important and I do think we need to get past the fluff stuff and onto the business at hand. That is, uniting this country and rebuilding a better, stronger America.

[burmafrd]

Just because YOU say its true means nothing to me.

[VCDefectors]

Again, there's no need to make this personal. Attack the idea, not the person.

That's funny, because fluff is all Obama's campaign had to offer.

[burmafrd]

Its not personal. I just happen to think you have no perspective at all. You really believe all the far left wacko's.

[BrAinPaiNt]

:laugh1: W has not been impeached so I don't know if Obama will.

But yes America decided that They liked the Obama/Biden ticket better than the McCain/Palin ticket.

Just like the voted for the W/Cheney ticket over Gore and Horseface.

[BrAinPaiNt]

Its not personal. I just happen to think you have no perspective at all. You really believe all the far left wacko's.

:laugh1: So he is like your mirror opposite? The Bizzaro burmafrd? :laugh1:
