    USARonin,

    I've explained your logical fallacy. Now, if you can, please explain mine.

    I don't say that "the folks who comprise [my] statistics are overwhelmingly nullifed by the statistics in [your] group". At first blush that sounds backward. I'm claiming that my statistics are appropriate and that yours are not.…

    smithinjapan,

    Palin is a Governor of a US state and she has a good approval rating in her state. She has had prior experience as a city mayor. She comes to the position with administrative experience that Biden does not have--nor any of the other candidates either.

    As I said…

    Oops. New computer keyboard.

    As I was saying, my daughter could make A's in school. However, she prioritizes her friendships and gets lesser results. She's qualified, but I'm not particularly satisfied.

    USARonin,

    I already explained why the statistics are incomparable.

    First you are comparing an individual to a group and the group is not even running for the office in question. Comparable statistics between Biden and Palin do not show Palin in a favorable light.

    Add to that the unknown provenance…

    USARonin,

    You would be falling into the statistics category. It's a pity that Twain didn't do us the favor of putting "misapplied statistics" into his hierarchy.

    Palin will not be debating Congress. She will be debating one member of Congress who, at the very least, a majority of his own…

    tkoind2,

    Thank you. Yes, we did jump straight to war and I thought that was a mistake. I don't know if anything could have been done to prevent Bali but I did think that to successfully combat terrorism we needed to be willing to absorb some blows.

    Obviously that's an…

    Azrael,

    That's a very interesting post. And I think you have made some good points. Without getting into it deeply, I'd just like to say that one of the things that gives America cultural enrichment is immigration whether the path was forced--as in the case of Alice Walker and Tony…

    And, just in general, I think it would be a serious mistake to underestimate Palin. I think it would even be a mistake to misunderestimate her but that, hopefully, will be a story for my grandchildren.

    Sarge,

    I could be wrong, but I think there is at least some question about whether I am wrong or not. I seem to be in the company of at least 47% of Republicans who believe that Palin does not have the right qualifications for the job--and that's very strange…

    Pivot,

    The question of who pays is a good one. I think, however, it needs to be given a more comprehensive view. Who pays for what and when?

    Execution has two costs--a known one and an unknown one. Those who favor execution generally believe that the unknown costs are actually…
