This candidate… — 20 Comments

  1. I am reminded of Condaleeza Rice, who had a Ph.D. in Political Science and was also a very skilled pianist.

  2. A black Republican woman, sounds great. Who claims that her beauty pageant experience is “one of the things that make her qualified to serve in Congress”…

  3. “Who claims that her beauty pageant experience is “one of the things that make her qualified to serve in Congress”…”

    She stands head and shoulders above a pampered ‘community organizer’ voting present. And, I bet she’s willing to show us her Harvard transcripts.

  4. rickl –

    LMFAO.

    On a more serious note, these are the kinds of candidates we need. Keep ’em coming.

  5. Let the “Uncle Tom” hatefest of the Left commence. She’ll get hit hard.

    Hatred of black Republicans is at an all-time high. To wit, the recent reboot of the almost all-white show “Arrested Development”, featured only one black character. Of course, he was a corrupt philandering Republican congressman who was the villain of the show.

  6. rickl. the proper way to express that on this here blog is to ask is she married? would she like to be?

    I could be a kept man…

  7. Geoffrey Britain,

    Politicians have to begin somewhere and her resume is plenty sufficient for a 1st timer running for the office she’s seeking.

    Winning Miss America is no joke. I once worked with a Miss America 1st runner-up who had also become a lawyer. She was very competitive, rational, egotistical (though likeable enough), and highly polished in her social skills. What most stood out about her was she would turn on and off her charm like a light bulb.

    I trust a Miss America to play the campaign game. How competent she’ll be in office is a different matter, but as I said, they have to begin somewhere.

  8. lacune,

    True, at some point in her ascension, she’ll cross a line where they will character assassinate her.

    Religious zealots do not tolerate apostates.

    If she’s wise, she’s already preparing her counter-offense.

  9. “She stands head and shoulders above a pampered ‘community organizer’ voting present. And, I bet she’s willing to show us her Harvard transcripts.”
    Certainly but what does that have to do with her claim that walking down a runway and demonstrating a singing voice is a qualification for Congress?

    That she made such a claim should give one pause. As it demonstrates either a shallowness of perspective or a politician’s willingness to spin anything to their personal advantage.

  10. Geoffrey Britain,

    It’s no more shallow than retired pro athletes or (gasp!) famous actors who’ve used that part of their background when running for office.
    Think about what goes into making a Miss America. Beauty pageants, most of all at that level, are no joke. Her mettle is proven in terms of sustained competitive pressure under intense judgement.

    Congressmen come from diverse backgrounds. She’s checked the conventional blocks (HLS, practicing attorney), too.

  11. I agree with Eric. She has shown her competitiveness and her intelligence (Harvard Law School). She says she believes in conservative principles and is most interested in getting the economy going again. That can be tested during the campaign. Anyway, if we write any candidate off because they are too pretty, too famous, too soft, etc., we are possibly missing some good candidates. She has tossed her hat in the ring. Winning the election will be proof of her ability to do “politics.” I say run, Miss America, run.

  12. JJ,

    The Democrats practice ‘mean girls’ politics. If anyone knows how to compete and win in a ‘mean girls’ arena , it should be a Miss America.

  13. Sarah Palin was also in a beauty pageant.

    In some ways, beauty, not politics, is going to be part of America’s salvation. Assuming there will be an America.

    Emotion and beauty, not Demoncrat politics or “policies” are what matters to humans in the down below, low information spheres.

  14. lacune,

    Yep. It’s in their treatment of non-white conservatives that you become aware of the fact, beyond the fog of incessant propaganda, that there is a smooth transition from the KKK to the present-day ProgLeft.

    MLK (a Republican) would have seen right through those fiends. Their “anti-racism” and their claims to “stand for the blacks” wouldn’t have impressed him.

  15. MLK started seeing through it. What’s why they got rid of him. Malcom X got the same treatment from black racist ideologues.
