Thought you were like 12 years old or something....what do you know of 1980 politics.Originally posted by BallHawkKennedy blew his shot at getting the nomination before people even went to the polls. With the way Carter's administration was going he had to screw up not to steal the nomination from Jimmy. Kennedy just padded his stats at the end to make it look like the primaries were somewhat close.Originally posted by sheepsheadTed Kennedy 1980
So unless Obama starts producing 30% approval ratings, I doubt we'll see/would of seen any competition from within the party.
But, hey, it doesn't matter who runs, right? Jindal's gonna destroy whoever runs against him.
And no, Jindal won't destroy anyone...Newt will though.The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince Lombardi

We wont see a 30% approval rating no matter WHAT he does (or doesnt do as it looks like will be the case "present"!!!) Because the press wont let it happen. According to the press he was found in a woven basket along the chicago river by old man Daley.
Come on, every liberal was chomping at the bit at those Palin stories involving her daughter. Palin had you guys scared shitless, that's why you hate her. An attractive, accomplished female conservative. Gets under your skin dont it?Lombardi told Starr to "Run it, and let's get the hell out of here!" - 'Ice Bowl' December 31, 1967

Palin hardly had anyone 'sacred shitless'. I never hated her. I did find her attractive but not 'accomplished' female. Conservative? You betcha. I really do believe that if McCain had chosen someone other than her, he'd have had a better chance.Originally posted by sheepsheadWe wont see a 30% approval rating no matter WHAT he does (or doesnt do as it looks like will be the case "present"!!!)

Guess I'm one of those that does feel that education should/is an asset. A BA in journalism isn't the same as a law. degree. Who knows, may be in a few years she may be ready for the national election again. I just didn't feel she was ready or qualified for this one.
It'll be interesting these next few years, if the price per barrel continues to stay low, the tax collected by the state of Alaska will dwindle. Those checks sent out to every resident will also dwindle. Alaska's 'nest egg' will be used.
Popularity of an elected politician is most tied to 'what they do for me'. Perhaps those once high ratings will come down a notch. I think the best thing she can do for herself is stay home, work hard on the issues facing Alaska. Low dropout rates, highest nationwide spousal abuse rates, drug and alchohol rates are too high. Be the best govenor she can possibly be for the next few years. Concentrate on what's now.

Her resume was clearly more robust then Obamas, that's not an opinion, just line them up. I dont care if a guy can beat me in Jeopardy or not. I look at his accomplishments and what I believe is in his/her heart. If we wanted the smartest guys to run the country then just pull some pinhead out of Harvard every four years. He has no experience at anything, this cabinet shows and more and more were seeing Dave Axelrod will be running the country much like Dick Morris did under Bill Clinton.Lombardi told Starr to "Run it, and let's get the hell out of here!" - 'Ice Bowl' December 31, 1967

Being a Yale alum himself, was the quote, in context, a jab at the rivalry between the two schools?Originally posted by sheepsheadNone at all, like William F. Buckley said"I would rather the first 300 people in the Boston phone book run the country then the staff at Harvard University"
Ask yourself this, if you were undergoing life saving surgery,
wouldn't you rather see the doctor's degree from Harvard or Yale hanging on the wall, than one of these:
American International School of Medicine (Guyana)
University of Health Sciences (Antigua)
American University of the Caribbean (St. Maarten)
Central American Health Sciences University (Belize)
Grace University School of Medicine (Belize)
International University of the Health Sciences (St. Kitts)
Medical University of the Americas (Nevis)
Ross University School of Medicine (Dominica)
Saba University School of Medicine (Saba)
Spartan Health Sciences University (St. Lucia)
University of Sint Eustasius Medical School (St. Eustasius)
St. George's University School of Medicine (Grenada)
St. James School of Medicine (Bonaire)
St. Mary's School of Medicine (St. Lucia)

And if were all so proud of Barrys collegiate career, why havent we seen his college transcripts. Why are they sealed? I'm sure you can find every paper Sarah Palin did in her sophomore year for instance and have some rude comment about them.Lombardi told Starr to "Run it, and let's get the hell out of here!" - 'Ice Bowl' December 31, 1967

This coming from World Net Daily..... News with an emphasis on 'investigative reports and conservative commentary'.
They posted this one 2 years ago......very intensive scientific investigating.
Do you honestly think that after going thru a lengthy primary, then the election campaign, that someone, anyone wouldn't have come up with something by now? This is just one of those 'urban legend' type things that takes legs and keeps moving. Much like Gov. Palin's baby story. No substance. Started by folks that are more interested in destroying than helping for the greater good.

I only have disdain for ivy league educations when morons equate them with being somehow better...almost like royalty. Its irrational.Originally posted by packinpatland
Why the distain for having a degree(s)? Ivy leage doesn't equate to pinhead.
On the flipside I would want my child to have an ivy league education, but not for my child to have the arrogant snide behavior that usually goes with it. Just cuz you went to classes and absorbed material in books does not make you special in any way.
give me the guy who can actually run a profitable business and better the lives of all his customers over the guy who can get past the harvard cariculam.
The doubly amazing thing about libs is that GW graduated from Yale, but that didn't matter...he was a stammering dufus. He can't think. He is an idiot....yet he still managed to navigate the yale program while being drunk the whole time. Now if a liberal with no life went to yale and got slightly better grades because they had no life and studied nonstop, then that person would be the third coming (obama is already the second).The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince Lombardi
