I am not a Democrat nor an Obama supporter but based on the crap I heard on FOX News Radio today, I could NEVER vote for the Republican party. I have heard more than a few idiots say that Sarah Palin is a great candidate, that she is a very qualified, etc. How ABSURD is this? The woman has a Journalism degree from U of Idaho, no understanding of International Affairs, Economics or even simple World Geography. As much as I don't agree with Obama and his policies, I heard a local talk show host say that Palin's qualifications are better than Obama's. Hmm, U of Idaho vs Harvard Law School. How dumb can these people be? Anyways, Obama has done a terrible job so far but I could never support a simpleton, anti-intellectual idiot like Palin.
Well there are plenty of dumb bunnies on the left as well. Do you think VP Biden is a member of Mensa? Nancy Pelosi is as dumb as dirt. Have you ever heard her when she is under pressure? Michael Moore? I think Palin is far brighter than the POTUS. After all she gives a pretty decent speach without a teleprompter. LOL Oh and we now have 57 states, how freaking bright was that? And I can't wait to see the Obama camp and their failing international policies unfold. How much was that trip to Asia?
Actually, The Democrats have a whole lot of people who show up each day and work hard for 12 or 14 hours trying to come up with ways to resolve the many problems this country came to confront over the past eight years. They don't always agree on what should be done, but they are qualified for their present positions by virtue of actually doing what is in the job description. Republicans just stand around and say "No!". That's it. No ideas. No plans. No nothing. Just "No!"

I would be for a bill that paid them to go home and not think.
we would be better off if liberals stayed home and didnt think of ways to "fix our problems".

wow, I take offense at your comment about a journalism degree: are you saying people with journalism degrees are beneath people with other degrees? My husband got his degree in journalism...As for better qualified, it takes more than a Harvard education to make someone qualified for the Presidency..What an eletist statement.
She does have executive experience, our President is showing how little he has and World Geography? I wonder if Palin thinks we have 57 states??
I for one, do not happen to think either are particularly qualified, but I would rule out voting for an entire party because of a few or because you may not think one candidate is a good choice.
Gee, if you wouldn't support someone like Palin and think Obama is doing a lousy job, I guess we can put you in the libertarian catagory or not voting at all.
Good point. Many prominent Republicans left the party during the Bush presidency & many others are so embarrassed by what the GOP has become that they no longer refer to themselves as Republicans [i.e. only 20% of Americans identify as Republicans]. The GOP will either die off or forever be a minor political force in America. Something else will emerge. Perhaps the Democratic party will split w/ the Green party\ socialists going their own way.
But how many consider themselves conservatives compared to liberals? Isn't it the overall views more than the party? I happen to feel views are more important than actual party affiliation, but I guess some can't see that. Of course I look at where you live and understand why you feel the way you do.
I was raised in Pasadena, glad I got out before the libs took over.
