Nicolle Wallace, if I remember correctly, was the RNC operative assigned to perform valet and stylist service for palin. Her job was to take little sarah around to Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus and buy her some nice clothes to wear for public appearances, to look all credible and businesslike and vice-presidential. Those shopping sprees cost 150-thousand dollars.

Sarah Palin is a moron.

Elizabeth Warren is brilliant.

So there IS that.

great analysis last night about August - November - January running mates. NA - can't imagine her being that astute.

synopsis - You pick an August running mate to excite/unite the party post convention (Palin/potentially Warren). You pick a November running mate to help you win certain states. You pick a Jan running mate to help you govern/execute your agenda.

when it comes to a potential vice presidential candidate drawing crowds and stirring the pot, Warren is very similar to Palin. Within that context, I happen to agree with her.

Because if the right has a Sarah Palin, then the left has to have one as well...right?..RIGHT??????

No, Nicole. Just because Bush Jr. was a war criminal who disregarded America's good standing in the world for his own political and personal ends, DOES NOT mean that President Obama MUST be the same. Just because the Right holds rank idiocy in a place of High Honor, does not mean the left does it, too. Sarah Palin is popular in right-wing crazy circles because she's an idiot. Sen.Warren is popular among the left because SHE'S NOT. I can see how you might be confused by the difference of SAME vs NOT THE SAME AT ALL, though, being how you and yours invaded and destroyed the WRONG COUNTRY.

Why don't you go tell all the other loons how Donald Trump is Presidential. The rest of it i can't say here.

For one thing, Elizabeth Warren speaks in complete sentences, not word salad.

Sarah Palin is far, far stupider. In addition to being wrong on everything and a quitter.

An intelligent woman that KNOWS exactly what she is talking about and a woman that finishes what she starts. A woman that can speak intelligently and carry herself with dignity and pride. A woman that actually cares for others and looks at them as her equal.

Republicans ignore Warren to their peril. She's a bonified liberal, but she's also an ex long time Repuublican from OK, and a charismatic populist to boot. Tremendous crossover appeal.
