The Observation Deck

Suppose a liberal Democrat lost the popular vote, but was awarded the electoral votes of a crucial state (in which there were an extraordinary number of highly suspicious votes cast) by a 5-4 decision of a Supreme Court, five of whose members were liberal Democrats.
Suppose also that the brother of the liberal Democrat was governor of the state in question and that the state secretary of state who certified the vote had been chair of the liberal democrat’s reelection committee in the state.
Would liberal democrats then have much of a leg to stand on if they tried to cry voter fraud because a Republican candidate had supported and worked in the past with an organization that was fraudulently registering names, but not fraudulently putting people in the voting booth?
And what would conservative Republicans say about the legitimacy of the liberal Democrat’s presidency?

Bobby Jindal will not pick Sarah Palin. My prediction: she goes back to Alaska, fades into obscurity, and merits an asterisk and a curiosity listing in wikipedia.

I believe she will go back to Alaska but rather than drifting into obscurity my prediction is that something will surface about her background or she will do something so bizarre that we will all be shocked at how close such an individual was to the highest office in the country.

Sarah Palin will rise in the Republican party. As they openly admit, she is the best they have. It is what many are now calling the VPIL_ factor. Bush was elected because he was a good guy that they would like to have a beer with. Well after 8 years of beer it is now time for a little loving. As one guy at the Tarrymore Bar said "You know if she was in the same bar as me, she is a regular Joe, I might have a chance hitting on that. She is hot."

Jindal has not a chance in hell. He seems pretty bright, the kind of person that would say, "I can't say that it is a lie." They need candidates like GWB and Palin, that just go OK that was easy to say.

no Steve Forbes is the best they have...

Wow, that's got to be the most damning appraisal of Republican talent I've seen outside of the Daily Kos.

Pop Quiz!!!

Who's quote is this?

Dear Fellow Americans:



Isn't it time to break the lock-grip that the political class in Washington has on so much of our lives?

America needs a new vision, one that relies on the values of family, faith and freedom. We need policies that expand opportunity for all Americans by releasing the vast growth potential locked inside the American economy.

That's why this outsider is running for President. And that's why I'm proposing to take power away from the Washington politicians and give it back to the American people, where it belongs.

Stan,

Interesting. Where MIGHT she end up? Hmmm.



LensCrafters model?

Reality T.V. show participant, or a regular on Fox News? (All freak shows.)

Baby sitter for her divorced daughter's kid?

Wild game hunting Republican, a la Ted Nugent?

Trustee in a women's prison?

Dancing with the Stars contestant? ("The heels are on. The gloves are off." Cha-cha-cha!)

Selling lipstick or hockey sticks on a shopping network? (Signature models?)

Spokesmodel for Blackwater? (Wink, wink.)

CMT "Trick My Truck" participant?

McCain's mistress? (He can't even count how many homes he gave up for that dalliance.)

Newsstand attendant? (She reads EVERYTHING.)

Televangelist?

Gadfly on the Wasilla Observer Observation Deck, Global Discussion forum? (She talks about Putin's head and airspace. Oh, and she complains that the publisher's wife has a "Re-elect Obama-Biden" sign in her window.)



Endless possibilities. Only time will tell.

Answer: Every single Presidential candidate, ever?

(I know it's really Forbes from '96. How'd that populist tone go over for a guy with more money than God?)

Agreed.
