I really don't think she has much influence on anyone now-a-days.

The Palins only interest the National Enquirer set and Fox News
watchers. It makes you wonder how Harry fits into this.


Palin is still of interest to and admired by a significant percentage of
right-wingers, although there are plenty of other moronic right-wingers
competing for the attention she gets.

I haven't seen any of them.


Some of them are right here in rec.boats, denying their love and
admiration for the Palins, and how the Palins have contributed as much to
this country as the Kennedys and Bidens.


Why did FDR put Joe Kennedy in charge of Wall Street? Because he was the
most successful crook?

Three of Joe Kennedy's sons died in the service of this country.

Yup. Still Joe was a crook.

.. well one anyway.

JFK was mostly serving himself and RFK was a disservice to the
country.

I think Viet Nam would not have been what it got to be if RFK had not been
killed. Also would not have had Carter.

It is easy to try to guess what someone might have done but Bobby was
to the right of his brother when it came to communists. Who knows what
he would have done, if elected. It was Bobby who decided an illegal
wire tap on MLK was in the national interest because he thought Martin
was a communist..

Bobby was no stranger to illegal wire taps and "sneak and peek"
warrantless searches tho. He was ordering them from the JFK DoJ too.

He was known to dislike escalating VN. Knew it was a no win situation.
Maybe he learned from the Cuban Missile Crises. Never said he was honest,
or even would have been a good President. But most likely we would not
have been mired in SEA.
