McCain's VP:

Sarah Palin reminds me of Heather Mills-McCartney.

A bigger mistake than Dan Quayle?

I don't know if this is true, but according to Mark Halperin of Time (who I am frequently unimpressed with), this will be supermarket-line reading soon:

@McTag,

I think Hillary’s supporters will see right through this. Palin wasn’t picked b/c of her experience as a leader. She was chosen b/c she has a vagina. It’s degrading to women & I think it will backfire. As an Obama supporter I’m happy with his choice.

Besides the vag, Hillary and Palin have nothing in common

And, Sarah Palin stated:

"I am ... I am up to the task, of course, of focusing on the challenges that face America, and I am very pleased with the situation that I am in, when, when you consider the situation now that Alaska will be in. And that is Alaska, and Alaskans will be allowed to contribute more to our great country and they'll be allowed to do that because I -- if we're elected -- will be in a position of opening the eyes of the country to what it is that Alaska is all about and what Alaska has to offer. So, I am happy to and very honored to be asked to do this. I know it's going to be great for Alaska."

Maybe she thinks she's still competing to be Miss Alaska or Miss America. Laughing

Someone should tell her the job is Vice President of the United States. Oh--and they should give her a written job description. Very Happy

I saw that , as mayor of Wasilla she was active in having books banned froim the local library for "moral issues, language and other more global issues"
I wonder what books she tried banning?

Aint it always the case that these Conservatives are always seeking what is best for us all?

Im delighted for MCCains pick. She's a lightweight picked just for one reason. Im gonna love her debates with Biden. Im thinking that Biden will be real gentle and allow Palin to inflict the thousand cuts on herself as the debates progress.

She is attractive though, much better looking than Joe.

@firefly,

She's up to the task of doing what? She's a small state governor, small town mayor. She's way over her head, and doesn't know it; that's more ignorance than knowledge - and scary. Has she ever taken care of a "real" crisis in her life? What were they? When asked what decisions she's made for the state's national guard, the answer is "non-existent."

Two top newspapers in Alaska question Palin's fitness, McCain's surrogates can't come up with one reason why she's a good pick but the Repub sheeple just jump on the bandwagon, the one headin' for the cliff.

Why do they hate America?

I've never seen one that can do that.

@JTT,

Let's see.

Palin actually GOVERNED. Obama can not even perform the duties of the Office he was elected to.

Palin helped run a small business. Obama has not run ANYTHING.

Palin beat back to "old boy" republican machine and WON and election. Obama wins because of his skin color.

Palin is CIC of the Alaska National Guard. You had to twist Obamas arm to go visit troops in Iraq.

I don't know what you really mean by that, but if you're saying that oneandahalf years governing a state with less population than Austian, Texas makes you more qualified than a longer time in the United States Senate, then it would probably be wise to nominate Palin as Presidential candidate, and McCain - the guy with less experience - as Vice.

Judging from what I've heard of Troopergate, it seems more like she was trying to RULE.

That's plainly false.

Woiyo9 wrote:

One which was not in compliance with state law, while she was governor, which she did not properly disclose, and which was shut down. NOT ETHICAL.

God Lord. She WON an election. This qualifies her? OK, so when Obama wins he'll be qualified too, right?

Good Lord. At least we know how you really feel.

Woiyo9 wrote:

Did she actually DO anything as CIC of the Alaska National Guard?

Wait. I thought the meme was that Obama uses wounded troops as props in his campaign. Didn't you get the memo?

Having a Vagina is degrading to women?
