This just in...Michael Dukakis still irrelevant. I can't believe I read the story and then wrote a response.

This is the funniest article of the week. Dukakis, calling Palin "pathetic"? It doesn't even need a punch line. How many states did Dukakis win when he ran? One? Two? None?

There is a certain arrogance associated with the "social" intellect. It is condescending and gives us a false sense of security. Dukaksi sense of reality with regard to statements about Palin is just as adolescent as his moment in an Abrams tank.

There he goes projecting again, Pathetic Idiot. Where is that picture of him trying to look tuff in a tank. It always makes me laugh!

Dukakis needs finally to graduate from Brookline Junior High at great last.

Is Palin "pathetic" because she disagrees with Dukakis on issues like gun ownership and abortion? Give me a break. Again, we have a glimpse of things to come if Obama wins-- more taxes. Democrats seem to take great joy in taxing the American people, especially the so-called "rich". I suppose it serves their Marxist/Socialist goal of redistribution of wealth. Indeed, Obama's tax policy is not about raising revenue (which is a legitimate purpose), but rather redistributing wealth. "Joe the plumber" thankfully brought that issue to light. How can Obama justify a "tax cut" (i.e., giveaway) for those who do not pay any taxes at all. That is simply welfare. Wake up America! The "rich" are the ones providing jobs in this economy. Tax them more, and there will be fewer jobs to "spread around". If you are mad at Bush, a vote for socialism is not the way to go.

Dukakis, washed-up polititian and ex-governor said "I made a lot of mistakes in 1988, but one of the things I did right was to select Lloyd Bentsen as my running mate." WHAT!! LOL! Lloyd Bentsen was the most stuck-up, nose-in-the-air elitist I've ever seen! Now, Sarah is a real person... did you see her at Walmart yesterday buying diapers? Got'ta love that! Guess that's "too middle class" for him. The Democrats talk about the "middle class" all the time: how their going to "help us" (like we're too stupid to help ourselves). When they get a good look at one (Sarah Palin), they don't know what to do. They panic, because they see a person with power unafraid to change their world... I saw Biden went on the attack of "Joe the Plumber"... attacking the middle class now, Joe? Attacking the very people he is trying to win over... STUPID!

The problem with Dukakis in 1988 was he wasn't ready to be President. Isn't he the guy that free a killer from prison who went out and killed a woman? Wow, I really respect his judgment! He wasn't even ready to be Governor.

Why is it that washed up leftist politicians, domestic terrorists, Islamic Jihadists & sex perverts all wind up as professors at American universities.

What a laugh. The author of the "Massachusetts miracle" which turned out to be a disaster, is commenting on a legitimate and authentic candidate for national office as if that's a mistake. The mistake, is electing a Democrat to ANY office in this country these days. Just look at the wonderful "leadership" of the Democrat party these days. Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Dick Durbin, Charlie Rangel, Christopher Dodd, Barney Franks, Charles Schumer, Rahm Emmanuel, and the annointed one, Obama. How does anyone who isn't an encephalitic and can observe their conduct not just look at them and say what a moron, how did this person get elected?

"clarioncall" Axelrod astroturfer alert! Can't be anything else, the type of name and strict adherence to Democrat talking points/attack methods proves it. Palin is a genuine person, and "clarioncall" can't handle that. Typical.

Who cares what Michael Dukakis thinks anyway? The fact that Sarah Palin has governed a state successfully makes her more qualified than anyone else on either ticket. Hmmm...wasn't the last democratic president a governor...and, yet, he was...SURPRISE...qualified. Sounds like a double standard to me...or maybe Palin is just being dissed because she doesn't share his lame views. Regardless, Dukakis has no earthly idea what he is talking about.
