I concede the plain fact that she got elected. Whether or not she actually "governs" is another question.

You can be sure she's being coached big time, we used to call that "being force-fed with a fire-hose."
He's a big eared, big mouth liar and is getting the same coaching.

The photo you posted of Obama is of him in traditional Kenyan dress. Kind of like someone who's family comes Scottland sporting a kilt for a photo. Nothing more.

Regardless of your poltical leanings, isn't important to hire someone who does not need on the job training?

Not when she knows we americans are doing Gods work as she said in her

I guess with an approval rating of about 80%, It sure seems like her constituents, almost all of them, thinks she's doing a pretty good job of governing.

But, don't let facts get in the way of a good 'ol fashioned liberal bash.

Here's another fact: Palin had NEVER been outside the US before last year.

From a document that means nothing to the GOP - the Constitution - when referring to the President
"He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties"

Living in Alaska and never leaving our shores - boy that will prepare you making treaties.

Palin has never ordered Alaska National Guard to do anything - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/story//mcclatchy/20080903/pl_mcclatchy/3035478 - broken link)

In charge? Then why has she never ordered the National Guard to do anything?
