VF on Sarah Palin, Part III

Part I and Part II of my comments, and now I draw your attention to this on Page 8:
Palin's victory that November [2006, when she was elected governor of Alaska] was one of the flukiest successes in modern American politics.
But the victory of Barack Obama in 2008 -- when just four years earlier, he had been a mere state legislator in Illinois -- was destiny!

  2. by "the other McCain" you mean the "less talented and more closeted" because objectively, that's what you demonstrate here.

  3. Gopherit! Congratulations! You've completed Task 1 of the liberal syllabus, the non sequitir ad hominem attack!

    A couple of pointers- the better read will recognize "objectively" as a Stalinist term, which is fine but a little Democratic Underground, and the implication of homosexuality is fine but a little junior high school.

    I saw Purdum on Hardball and thw whole thing came from McCain aides.

  4. Wow, "less talented and more closeted." That'll teach him. Somehow, Gopherit, I think RS has been called worse without it hurting his feelings. Go back to the Scrabble box, draw out a couple more letters, and see if you can't come up with something a little more compelling.

  5. Wow, more accusations of this guy with 16 kids being gay.

    What is *with* you people? LOL

    Maybe he's racist too, because he's white?

  6. I don't know. Given the...interesting...campaign season the Illinois GOP had, I would probably count Obama's Senate run in '04 as at least as much of a fluke.
