I think Mark Begich is trying to attract his Democratic base along with moderate Republicans. Mark's strategy is going to pay off on election day. I have the outrage, but recognize Mark's smart approach.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337781199678397958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-33740950432180576872008-10-31T14:45:00.000-08:002008-10-31T14:45:00.000-08:00For the umpteenth time, Sarah Palin is an American...For the umpteenth time, Sarah Palin is an American Citizen, unconvicted of any felonies, and of sufficient age to be qualified to run for Vice President. Those are the ONLY requisite qualifications for that office. Ask an intelligent question, or make an intelligent statement. If you do not think she is a good choice for VP, make your case. But please, do not contribute to the dumbing down of society by asking if she is qualified. It's almost as bad as pronoucing nuclear "nookyooler". My take on her choice is, only if we have all gone insane and will change the name of our nation to the United States of Bizzaroworld. But she is qualified.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-73180768162205683032008-10-31T13:15:00.000-08:002008-10-31T13:15:00.000-08:00Why would Ethan or Mark say she is not qualified? ...Why would Ethan or Mark say she is not qualified?

This is not to take anything away from her as governor. I’ve been telling people along the campaign trial, if you like the job Sarah Palin is doing as governor, vote for Joe Biden for vice president. …"<BR/><BR/>This is a good answer that doesn't alienate voters and that's the pressure for them.
