    At that level, it's pretty rough, no? By someone on the ticket? Remember, this is a campaign in which Obama and Biden would not criticize McCain without first delivering a mini-speech about what a remarkable American he was.

    I can see her being popular as a talk show host. I can't see people taking her seriously as a politician.

    No, not at all. From JFK's acceptance speech ...

    So where is the sentence where Kennedy makes fun of Nixon's job helping poor poeple?

    Other than a couple -- ha! -- of obvious reasons, I can't see why she enjoys any popularity at all. She is like fingernails on a chalkboard with me. But I thought she did a fabulous job in those very, very early days in the radar, which, I'll admit, exacerbated my disappointment in how she actually turned out.

    Meh ... that's what you heard. Not what I heard.

    I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a "community organizer," except that you have actual responsibilities.

    I'm stepping out of this discussion because it's getting way too political for my taste (and, I'll admit, I played a contributing role, so apologies in advance to the moderators). But that's not, to me, an insult. It's simply a very good response to charges of relative inexperience that surrounded her selection.
