I'm with Folster. A person is knowledgeable --> a person has knowledge, not a person has knowledgeability.

Well, in truth I'm actually not a total hawk, but I'm not a dove either -- I'm more like an angry pigeon flying over the political arena after a really big meal. -Abba Gav
This is what I found most disturbing and I don't disagree.
Quote:
"Matthew Dowd, the former Bush campaign strategist turned critic of the President, said recently that McCain “knows in his gut” that Palin isn’t qualified for the job, “and when this race is over, that is something he will have to live with. . . . He put the country at risk.”
My niece and her family recently got back from Alaska [husband was stationed there] and man does she tell a story about Palin.
From what she says we have heard just the tip of the iceburg. We think we have seen the vicious side of Palin, apparently that was warm and fuzzy by normal Palin standards.
Apparently Palin makes Cheney look honest, friendly and non-partisan.

Yeah - I have heard the same. Have a co-worker who's father-in-law works in Alaska state government. Sez there are LOTS of tales and antidotes about how little Palin knows about the day to day of the governor's job, even now. And about how involved her husband is in day-to-day items. And about petty politics and feuds dominating the tone.

Maybe they should let the AIP have their way.... Queen Sarah and all... Then we go in, kick the chit out of 'em, make 'em a territory again, and take any oil we want.
.... or not.......
Maybe if she'd just go away.......

I'm not going to worry for the next four or eight years about what our country would turn into if Sarah Palin gets elected President, for two reasons.
I think she'll be her own worst enemy. We have just gotten a sampling so far.
And I don't think the American population will ever trust her with the greatest office in the world.
Her potential is as an extremist figurehead of the Religious Right.
Let's have qualified centrist women step forward.
Y'know, it took 48 years (12 Presidential elections) since JFK broke the ol' WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protesant) mold for it to happen again.
Hopefully, after Obama, it won't take another 48 years for a qualified Hispanic or African-American or Catholic or Mormon or Jew or Native American or Asian-American or woman, etc., as well as a Protestant male.
In other words, a qualified person, regardless of what type of __________-American they are.
