The media wanted to report Palin because McCain wanted them to report Palin that was the whole point of bringing her in, not because she was the most qualified but because she brought the most attention.

As for Kennedy, she isn't a bad person and isn't qualified but who says you have to be qualified to be a senator anyways. But the voting record thing was ridiculous, as if she didn't know she didn't vote. I liked Obama because he said he did cocaine, because he talked plainly and wasn't stuck on talking points like every other politician out there. Hopefully more follow the lead.

I don't know if Kennedy stole the election but Bush was shit and if Gore was the president you can't possibly make the argument that he would have been any worse.
I agree we would have been better off with Gore. I hate W and think he's probably the worse president of the 20th century.

It's well know Kennedy's father used his mob connections to deliver districts in Chicago, giving Kenney Illinois. Without Illinois, Nixon wins.
