Peggy Noonan went to Frarleigh Dickenson (sp), a school I never heard of until I read her book. Real talent can't be kept down.

If you care to refresh my memory as to where you attend, but I seem to recall you don't attend Upenn or Carnegie. I don't seem to recall any noteworthy schools.

Temple or Drexel? West Chester? All of those are at least 3rd rate.

So because I don't go to UPenn I'm not in a first rate school? Instead, I go to Temple and it's is third rate? You're a real dope.


<begins rant about Penn> If you graduated from Penn, congrats -- you went to the school for rejected/wait-listed Harvard wannabes.


Hey, hey...I have quite a few friends at Penn and they could have made it at Harvard (only one of them bothered to apply there though).  Tongue



Yet that still says nothing to the argument that Rendell winning Specter's senate seat would be an "upset". It is ridiculous to suggest Rendell would be some sort of underdog winning out of the blue candidate.

Specter is a stronger than usual Republican and the incumbent. Get it yet?

Specter is a strong incumbent, but to suggest a Rendell win to be an "upset" is completely absurd.

Listen, it wouldn't be a huge upset but it would still be an upset. We're not going to agree on this. Let's just leave it at that.

University snobbery is really quite pathetic.

Ok. By the way, I was just attacking your school just for that sake. Take no offense, because it wouldn't have mattered where you went.
