Oh NOW we want a record of achievement

...The Vanity Fair piece asks some poignant questions about the significance of Palin's vice-presidential bid last year.

"What does her prominence say about the importance of having (or lacking) a record of achievement in public life?" the piece continues. "Why did so many skilled veterans of the Republican Party—long regarded as the more adroit team in presidential politics—keep loyally working for her election even after they privately realized she was casual about the truth and totally unfit for the vice-presidency?"

Ummmm....REALLY? because Obama set the bar for "having a record of achievement in public life" pretty low. A lot lower than that of being a governor of one of the largest states in the union, in fact.

Here's a fun game, lets try to name ONE thing Obama achieved before becoming president. The clock is ticking...
