But what do all beauty pageant winners do after they win, but find out they have no marketable skills? 1) Go to school for Journalism 2) pose naked.

Not really. Many go for a career on the silver screen like most beauty pageant winners in India.

I wish some of those Indian beauties did a little sensual posing before joining Bollywood like Ash Rai and Priyanka Chopra and then joined politics and became something like Sonia Gandhi. That would have been a complete package.

... and even if she did what's the big deal about it? i can understand that this links come from a black resident of brooklyn. so no surprised there. it is like clutching the straws to save oneself from drowning.

How does it matter if she had posed naked a long time ago? For governance, you need intelligence and sensibility. And modeling is a career. People can always switch careers. If you’re telling me she’s unqualified based on her intelligence or skills, it makes sense. We can’t be judgmental.

Bingo Alpheus ... Her streaky past shouldn’t be brought to light a bit because she now pursues a different dream. Why did McCain refrain from revealing this information when she was contesting for a Governer. Amazing how she can easily become a governor but not a vice-president. I am waiting for someone to put his flick up in an undy...for then we would come to know..that he has no balls to be a President.

A link on how she is not qualified to be a vice president can be tolerable, but what has her past got to do anything with her incapability to be a VP. Even strippers and porn stars are people and just because of what they do you cannot deem as stupid people and shouldn’t be barred from taking up a job which requires intelligence and certain amount of responsibility. I want to know why people think Sarah Palin is ridiculously unqualified to be a vice president and its demeaning to judge a person based on their past!

You know what Atul. I doubt if those are her pics. They actually remind me of the female in Seinfeld. Looks a lot like her than Sarah. :)

Alpheus unfortunate as you comment is (I watch Seinfeld almost everyday), you have got it awfully right. The image does look a lot like Elaine.

Wow...I think it’s Elaine after all. Sarah is safe! :)

American voters like their leaders to come form wondrous Happylands of make believe. There the political fraternity needs to conform to a social stereotype and that has a huge impact on the political career. I would like to guess that images are not too serious otherwise this could snowball into something major. But chances are if these pics are true, they have been dissected and commented upon when Palin actually ran for governor.
