Can I imagine Obama's nominees being treated the way Sarah Palin was treated?

So you mean…a seasoned veteran of the judicial system with impeccable academic credentials to boot, nominated for the Supreme Court….as opposed to a green, undistinguished governor who once was the mayor of a pretty big town of 40k people or so, nominated to be number two in command of the most powerful nation in the world….? Can I imagine that?

It's about QUALIFICATIONS. Not just body parts or skin color, lipstick, heels or whatever. Qualifications. End of story.

Thank God in heaven that the Republicans are out of power. It's up to us, the thinking majority, to keep it that way!

Sarah Palin is a stupid small town bitch (and not that hot)!! She did a great job educating her underage daughter to not get pregnant, eh? Wake up and smell the coffee>>The GOP (Grumpy Old Politicians) are stumbling and their movement is dead. Conservatives are growing outdated as the younger generation is coming into the voting age. Republican conservatives are non inclusive and the younger voters are not as jaded as the older white folks (aka Republicans). I hope she does get the nomination in 2012>>that would assure another 4 years of my great new president Obama!

“We now have a new tradition — we can filibuster nominees who have majority support. If they say ‘you guys are hypocrites,’ we tell them, ‘we are restoring a new tradition, and you guys set it.’”

And the Dems counter with the so-called "nuclear option", right? I've seen this play before.
