Palin’s qualifications do not really matter to the majority of the haters. If qualifications were that important no one on the left would have enthusiastically supported Obama when he started his run for the Presidency. If qualifications were that important Biden wouldn’t have ended his campaign due to garnering a measely 9000 votes in the Democratic primaries.

This level of all consuming hate is IMO nothing more than anger that the Republicans have nominated a woman, supposedly the purvue of the progressives, and a woman who is anti-abortion. She is NOT the right kind of woman because she is not a Democrat and she does not support the Holy Grail of abortion. How dare she run for office?

I agree with Cannon Asesrb. The Democrats have set the bar for how a President/VP should be treated. If indeed Obama is elected I can only hope that he will be accorded the same level of respect given to both the current office holders and the Republican candidates have gotten. I certainly don’t want to hear any drivel from the left about how “he is the President of everyone” and “the office deserves respect.” Personally I’m leaming toward Pres Obamahomma and VP Buffoon.
