Sarah Palin 2: Electric Boogaloo Withdraws NY Senate Consideration

[mykevermin]

That's Caroline Kennedy for y'all who can't read into things very well.

Good for her, and thank the fucking maker. She shouldn't have even considered consideration, given her staggering lack of experience for the position.

Yay, democracy: where having money and being from the right family puts you on the fact track to things you don't deserve and wouldn't do well at!

[KingBroly]

I don't think a name gives you a right to anything politically. Although some would make you think otherwise.

[speedracer]

Everything about her stab at Senate was bush league. Good to see her come to her senses.

Sarah Palin II is an insult to Sarah Palin I.

[VipFREAK]

Yeah, I guess in the fact that it wouldn't go so well for saving SNL.

Is Andrew Cuomo still being considered?

[KingBroly]

Not anymore it seems. It's some lady who got the seat. I've never heard of her before.

Kirsten Gillibrand

She's been in Congress since 2006, so at least she has some experience.

I hope she wasn't reelected last year, otherwise he still needs to fill a seat.

Nope, governors don't fill the seats of representatives. They'll schedule a special election soon to fill her seat.
