What a shame that something as superficial as facial hair may be a factor that determines whether a candidate is successful.

Putting Palin's picture in is just a cheap way to run up your post numbers.

As usual, on the top of my head. I keep forgetting that I'm in television. It should be about crass exploitation and driving the numbers, shouldn't it?

How many Republican voters could pull Silent Cal out of a line-up? Vs the savior of Western Civilization?

Who on earth would vote for someone that shaved off their mustache to win office, anyway? That's almost as bad as that guy I read about who grew a beard to win the election. Abraham somebody.
