Or perhaps neither one. My conundrum? I can't decide which one I'd rather see her take out more.

Besides, it could have been worse-----what if we called her "Lady Black Lung" OK OK, how about if we meet in the middle and go with "App. Queen"?

Originally Posted By Dabob2 I can't speak for SPP, but I'm guessing "Moonshine Babe" may have more to do with you considering her a "MILF" than anything else.
Originally Posted By tiggertoo Judd is far more intelligent than Palin...FAR more. Masters of Public Administration from Harvard JFK School of Government, and made Phi Beta Kappa. It's an apples to oranges comparison. I have little doubt she would substantively debate McConnell under the table. I doubt she could win though. She'll be branded a Hollywood, liberal elitist in a very conservative state, and the media would be so focused on the spectacle circus of her candidacy that few people will take a serious look. Not to mention the Super PAC money and incumbency advantages from with McConnell benefits greatly (see David Mayhew). In short, it more of a pipe dream in my opinion.
