Palin lacks leadership to be president, Murkowski says

JUNEAU -- Republican U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski says she doesn't think Sarah Palin has the leadership qualities to be president, nor the "intellectual curiosity" needed to make good policy.

Murkowski also told Katie Couric of the "CBS Evening News" that she doesn't think Palin enjoyed governing.

So, maybe Truman?

Even Truman was only there because he happened to be there when FDR passed on.

I would say FDR was the last "presidential" president that they fielded... and even he was a whopper with his liberal nonsense.

Murkowski is a corrupt, business as usual RINO politician who should be excluded from the Republican caucus is she succeeds in stealing the Senate election.

FDR “looked” presidential, but he was one of the worst. He was in violation of his oath of office every moment that he breathed. He threw people in jail and shut down publications for speaking out against him. He slaughtered livestock by the thousands to prop up food prices. The internment camps, stealing their property, so many horrible things. Even Obama hasn’t done that...yet.

Hopefully, God willing, Joe Miller can prove the voter fraud that put the whiner/sore loser in again.

And then what? I can't find that there is any recourse against the beneficiary of voter fraud. Even if it were proven beyond all doubt that the election of Murkowski was the direct result of voter fraud, as far as I can tell the result would stand regardless.

I think this is one of the reasons voter fraud is so attractive as a means to get elected. There isn't any downstream downside.

“And so speaketh a woman who would be barely known if she hadn’t been greatly affected by one Sarah Palin.”

well her dad was governor until Palin defeated him. I think Lisa takes this very personally.

“I suppose you could argue LBJ or JFK, but only because the mediots did a great job of hiding their foibles. “

I would say JFK. He called for a rising tide to lift all boats and we put a man on the moon.

Someone needs to take Lisa Murkowski, Zane Henning, Hollis French, the Kim guy (what a gay name), Andree McLeod and several others...

break their legs, fingers, arms, toes...and leave them way out in the remote Alaskan woods for the bears and whoever else that comes along.

these people belong under witness protection..if only there were any justice in this world.

“Funny, I don’t see any anger, just comments and conversation. Perhaps you came here for the wrong reason?”

hmm I saw the entire ‘Navy’ brought in to ‘destroy’ Andrea.

Does anybody have the Photoshop skills to create a graphic of Sarah Palin riding Lisa Murkowski as though the latter is a big ol’ hog?

It indeed sucks that we are stuck with murky. I blame Joe Miller somewhat for having blown an election, that was pretty much gift wrapped to him by Sarah. And one shouldn’t underestimate the threat that murky will undoubtedly pose over the course of the election campaign if she wins (I am still hoping she doesn’t), what with her being from Sarah’s home state. What a mess.

“I just guess we’re not seeing what they are.”

If that’s true, Alaskans themselves didn’t see what was going on in Alaska until the anti-Palin smears of the leftists somehow showed them what was going on in their own state.

Alaskans favored Palin by 80% before she was chosen to be McCain’s running mate.

The accuracy of Murkowski’s statements do not depend on whether she can steal the election.

Denouncing Palin’s leadership qualities is the one and only reason Murkowski was given power to steal the election. The left will not stop at anything to obscure Palin’s tremendous leadership ability because they know Palin will fight against socialism like nobody else has the guts to do.

I hope she loses her committee chair. It would be wonderful watching her wander the halls powerless.

Lois Markinski is a traitor to her party and a threat to our country. Why would anyone listen who loves America to her opinion on Sarah Palin?

Murkowski lacks the basic integrity, honesty, humility to be dog catcher, says the world ...
