No self control? Oh really? Buy friends (too laughable). You don't even know if Palin has a friend in the whole world. The man she ran with in her last election isn't even her friend.

Did the Barracuda run a marathon? Has she earned her first billion? What are the qualities needed to earn a billion dollars honestly? Self control?

Yea..that's what i thought.

I think if we were all honest, we would agree they are both intelligent, but we disagree with a lot of their political positions.

You really don't have to be that intelligent to be a good president. You just have to be smart enough to listen to the appropriate input at the right times.

Ask her fans. I'm not one of them, but since Oprah was recently named the third most admired woman in America, obviously, many Americans have a lot of respect for her.

I hope Oprah is right but my heart says otherwise. To me, Palin is fugly, but many see her as good looking women which seems to keep her in the headlines.

I must confess that I have never watched more than 5 minutes of her show. I do respect her for her "rags to riches" story.

But beyond that, I could care less what her political views are.
