Palin like "Mr Smith Goes to Washington?"

Lisa Schiffren:

I read someone's assessment that she is very smart, but she has "no guile." Wow. Joe Biden is moderately smart and he has lots of guile. Barack Obama is very smart, and has even more guile. She'll learn how to play political hardball. They all do. But for now she seems a lot like Jimmy Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. (And Joe Biden is more than a little like Claude Rains...)

We've been needing a Mr Smith in Washington for years now.

From Fred Thompson's blog, Fred08 on November 26th, 2007:

More Praise for Fred’s Tax Relief Plan - Patrick Joubert Conlon at Born Again Redneck called the plan, “music to a businessman’s ears.”

C.D. Jewell,

Liberalstein,

"This blog interested me first because of the title. But the quality of Patrick Joubert Conlon's writing has kept me coming back. His style is not presumptuous or pompous or condescending; it's plain and simple. Good old American English. Which is funny because Mr. Conlon was born and lived in South Africa for his first twenty one years and after that spent eight years in England before finding his home here in the U. S. His blog provides a rare outsider/insider perspective on the U. S. of A. He's been linked to by CNN on a couple of occasions and one of his posts was cited by the official Fred08 website. He does a lot of politics but also some lighter fare as well. He frequently posts spectacular photos taken on his Oregon farm."
