I like Elizabeth Dole, also. Great lady and she does amazing work!!!

Yes, but not because of his dietary habits, and I'm not looking for a role model, which apparently is something many on the right so deperately crave. Sad, true, but at the same time hysterically funny.

well it is a good thing you weren't looking for a roll model in Obama because you sure would have been disappointed...not sure what folks thought his Change and his Hope meant....Obama's Dictionary is very different than mine on those two words!

I think he's a wonderful role model- it's been pretty unanimous that he tries his best to treat those around him with dignity and respect, has a clearly loving and strong relationship with his wife and children and has taken advantage of his opportunities in life to do far better than a lot of people with his background would.

I think he's an excellent role model for the kids.

Totally agree with you on that. Not a fan of his politics, but he makes a great role model for kids. Young, energetic, loving and faithful to his wife, excellent father. Lets hope he keeps his nose clean for his term, and I think he will. He's carrying a lot of responsibility on his shoulders, which I'm pretty sure he's aware of.

I totally disagree. I think many die hard "liberals" on this board would know how to handle a successful conservative - educated - woman. In fact I'd bet the farm that if this were say Kaye Bailey Hutchison the dialog would be totally different - don't you think?

It has NOTHING to do with left or right but EVERYTHING to do with the fact that she is not qualified to run for office and don't think for one second that running in 2012 is not her goal here. She is a deer shootin' beer drinkin' kinda gal. That's who she is. She is not well read, not educated about history or current events and not qualified to run.

That's how I see it anyway for what its worth.

President Obama drinks beer...he's a hoop shootin' beer drinkin' kinda guy who smokes. That's who he is. He is not well read, not educated about history or finance and was not qualified to run. But he did, and he won.

That's how I see it.

If Ms. Palin is as unqualified and ignorant as many say, it should be a goal for people who don't believe in conservative platforms to have her run against President Obama in 2012. I think the anger/fear/animosity directed toward her is disproportionate to her actions.

Maybe it really does have nothing to do with left or right, but I don't think it has anything to do with her qualifications or lack thereof either. I can't fathom what about her evokes such passion for or against.

By what standard is Obama "not well read" or "educated"? IMO a degree from Columbia in political science and int'l relations, a law degree from Harvard, and a professorship at the University of Chicago in constitutional law is pretty well read and educated.

He was a multi-term state senator and then a US senator.

He's got more education and degrees than I do, and I am pretty damn smart and "edumacated" by local standards.

Palin can't even correctly identify what's on the horizon and couldn't make it through ONE term as a state governor. :roll:

Let me see, not well read, just head of the Harvard Law Review. I would rather have him try and support me than someone who waves to Russia out of her back door and never been out of the Country, whoops, she went to Canada and Mexico once. And now she can say she has been to other countries. So now she is really qualified.

You really think she is a very attractive one? You must have been looking at those big nursing t--'s versus her total body. And you must have one of those bumper stickers on your truck.

Acxtually I have a SoWal sticker on my gas guzzling made in america Chevy Tahoe....

Yes I think she is very attractive.....Especially for a 40 plus mother of 3...You couldnt tell anyway when you only see her through the blood in your eyes.

You shouldnt characterize people

I think that would be a great pickup line to use on Sarah.
