I bet he'd be called a Dope-smoking Socialist Marxist Bast*rd Dufus Messiah
But only by those who have to reduce every political thread to a name calling personal attack.

You mean the way people on the left have been calling George Bush "shrub", among other things, in a lot of threads for the last 7 1/2 years?

I guess I missed that one, not exactly sure what "shrub" is in reference to, but it sounds like it is more of a comical term than a viscous personal attack. Let's see "shrub" or "Socialist Marxist Bast*rd Dufus Messiah" ? I'd call it a coin toss

Come on city boy! How can you throw rocks at a lady that hunts, fishes, parties and keeps in great shape! Oh, and she did break up the big oil corruption thingy and prossecute the bastards too. That is SO HOT!!!

And then there's this too:

Former state Rep. Ray Metcalfe, a Democrat who was an early whistleblower in an FBI investigation that unearthed waves of corruption in Alaska politics, said his party will have a tough time finding ways to criticize Palin.

No worries, TR... just havin' fun at happy hour.
She's got some commendable fetes... and seems affable enough.
Her selection is just a little to nuanced, her résumé far too light... the pick is too gimicky

I can see an argument can be made for your statement about Palin. So can you tell me how Obama's record is heavier then hers?

That picture is funny.

Now that this "politics" thing has gotten everyone's interest up, anyone want to talk about religion?

My God's better than your God

No. I don't discuss either with friends/family/strangers/anyone. The only opinion that matters to me is my own.

I can see an argument can be made for your statement about Palin. So can you tell me how Obama's record is heavier then hers?

While serving in both his Illinois State Senate and the U.S. Senate, he has been a upper-tier legislator since '97... not a small-town City Councilmember and Mayor.
Palin's rise has been best described as meteoric, but she beat out a corrupt, bloated 20-year veteran party opponent, too.

No, Obama is not mega-deep in national exposure.... but, HE has won over the voters. He has made the speeches, and he has created his loyal following.
He put himself on the radar with his keynote address during the LAST Democratic Convention. That's where I first heard him...
In the most hotly contested primaries in many o year, Obama earned his victories with grass-roots hard work.
He beat out the presumptive heir to the nomination.

Over the course of the past 19 months, the voters across America have brought Obama to this point. John McCain INTRODUCED most all of us in America to Gov. Palin barely 12 hours ago!
