Homework assignment: How many and which Presidents came to the office from Congress or from places other than a Governor’s house or mayor’s hovel? Off the top of my headl, must verify but let’s see: Eisenhower. George Herbert Walker Bush. Lincoln. George Washington.
Which Presidents came to that office without so-called “executive experience”? John Adams, James Madison, John Quincy Adams, Millard Fillmore, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, Benjamin Harrison, Warren G. Harding, Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford. http://www.whitehouse.gov/kids/presidents/
Don’t BS us, Sarah.
I thought her speech was OK. It was supposed to be huge but it was OK. I think she would make a decent VP but I’d be worried about her taking over the top job.
“She gives good talking head.” Huh?? Are u serious? I think CNN just called and is looking for a new analyst – you available?? C’mon folks – you must do better.
Levi was hilarious – waving! “Can’t be easy?” No – of course not – guy got his girlfriend pregnant – then gets yanked into the national spotlight from his hamlet in Alaska, has a suit thrown on him, and ends up before countless millions at 17! Brutal. Not his fault – just a victim of politics.
BINGO!! Pandora!!! And chewing gum in public too!!! What FATHER would let his daughter stand in that public arena with a “boy” that has some significant responsibility in the altered future of his daughter, and the swirl of gossippy frenzy they now face.
Pretend for a moment she was talking about McCain –not Obama– when she talks about executive experience, being a Washington insider, being a lifelong politician.
I’m pretty sure she dissed the top of her own ticket.
It looks like a bad Saturday Night Live skit.

Most of them since WWI and WWII…

If I were you, I’d be worried too!!!
Go Sarah!
She gives good talking head. McCain is betting that the country is just stupid enough to mistake that (once again) for competence.
“She gives good talking head.” Huh?? Are u serious? I think CNN just called and is looking for a new analyst – you available?? C’mon folks – you must do better.
Just like a liberal to make a BJ joke!
Just like a troll to feign disgust.
Joe, we can be serious and then… not so much. Hang around. I’ve enjoyed our discussions.
Good talking head, crap, they figured out why I chose her!
Disgust?
I was going for unabashed contempt!
Face it, you’re infuriated by the prospect of a “breeder” in the White House!!!
All i’m saying is that i though 330 had more intelligent analysis… perhaps i’ll keep my eye out for others to give me that – i’ve seen some here.
as for the speech – as a speech, it was good for Repubs, repulsive for Dems, and for independents – meh. not sure.
My favorite part was when Levi started giving the “politico wave” to the crowd having come out on stage. HAH!
You are saying she doesn’t?
Good on Levi….all this can’t be easy on the fella.
C’mon 330 – grow up bro!
Levi was hilarious – waving! “Can’t be easy?” No – of course not – guy got his girlfriend pregnant – then gets yanked into the national spotlight from his hamlet in Alaska, has a suit thrown on him, and ends up before countless millions at 17! Brutal. Not his fault – just a victim of politics.
What a filthy business.
Levi and Bristol have been forced into the role of poster children for teen pregnancy. I felt horribly sorry for them.
Can you imagine that happening to donviti back in the day???
And I blame the adults for this staged stunt that came very close to celebrating teenage pregnancy.
So – The Dems have styrofoam greek columns, and the Repubs have pregnant teens on stage…
shaping up to be a good election November.
Ugh.
I know it’s hard, Pandora, as I am sure you had your scalpel and salt solution at the ready!

That should be a good reason never to get a girl pregnant. Levi sure never saw this coming.
