Rico watched Sunday Morning today (including Ben Stein, always brilliant, on why we can't fight a ground war in Europe), and that segue'd right into Face the Nation, also on CBS. That show featured four women politicians, of all kinds, weighing in on the whole Sarah Palin thing:Governor Janet Napolitano, a Democrat from ArizonaRico says, unfortunately, that the entire hour was (yes, even in spite of them all being women) the standard my-harangue-is-more-important-than-your-harangue, even though the moderator tried cutting 'em off mid-harangue...
Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, a Republican from Texas
Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democrat from Florida
and (former) Governor Jane Swift, a Republican from Massachusetts
Shakespeare was right, of course: a plague on both your houses!
Rico says he is not looking forward to having to make some Tweedledumb/Tweedledumber choice come November... (And why the hell did Ann Richards have to go and die on us?)

The claims of Sen. Hutchison that no governor brought significant foreign policy experience to the White House is just wrong.
Consider, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.
Clinton's experience might be least, but he had a degree in foreign service.
Can the Republicans get more inaccurate?
