Alaskan Haters

A couple of weeks ago, we suggested that Memphis Mayor Willie W. Herenton apparently was overqualified to be vice-presidential candidate for the Republican Party.

Perhaps, we were too hasty.

We just read that when Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is criticized, she too refers to her enemies and critics as “haters.” Perhaps, she and our mayor have more in common than we thought.

You can make better comments than this.
