Does Palin have a college degree?
My mom was saying that she heard that she did not? I thought it was strange because I can't remember a president or vice president (at least a recent one)that did not have a degree?

5. She shouldn't even be qualified to be a White House spokesperson
Seems like she's barely qualified to be a newspaper writer.

12. I have a communications degree, and yet I'm laughing at her.
But at least I finished mine in four years. ;)

6. She apparently went to 5 colleges in 6 years. It took her 6 years to get a BA :-)
Seriously, is this all the Republicans have available to them for VP?
