72 yr old melanoma patient claims TERRORISM is #1 issue & picks a lady with NO International Cred?
So, knowing that he could pass from medical issues at any time, McSame chooses Palin to be a heartbeat away, literally, from the presidency - this is a stunningly bad pick - and it will be HAMMERED upon every day from here on out.

McSame didn't meet her but once, but there's clearly not enough vetting of her to justify such a ridiculous pick - she's in an ethics scandal, only been governor of 650,000 people for 20 months, has no credibility or experience outside of Alaska, the mother of a 4 month old Down Syndrome infant, and is a wild pick to be so close to the presidency. We must call it for what it is, a desperation pick that will deflate their momentum they had going this past month up until the Democratic Convention!

CAN WE SAY THREE CHEERS FOR THE GOP MASTERMINDS FORCING "MAVERICK" McSAME TO BOW DOWN AND NOT PICK LIEBERMAN AS HE FELT COMFORTABLE WITH, AND INSTEAD PICKING SARAH PALIN, A 44 YEAR OLD WHO DESTROYS THE LONE ARGUMENT THEY HAD AGAINST OBAMA - THAT HE WAS TOO INEXPERIENCED!?

Here's Palin showing an example of what she's like in this race - a fish out of water!

2. If by terrorists you mean wolves, moose and polar bears, then she's got it in spades.

6. now this is trueeeee!
I just was harassed on youtube on a moose video by some NUT who said they had the right to kill any animal they want, and he said they're not that cute when they're trying to kill you if you get near them... talk about a loon! so, ya, to people like that nut, Palin defends Alaska from the animal-terrorists who are up to no good!

3. Why are using "lady"?
(Your choice says more about you than about McCain or Palin.
There are a million reasons why the GOP ticket is wrong.
(Lady is neither here nor there.)

Both are standard for the respective sexes.

9. "Your choice says more about you than about McCain or Palin."
You've got NERVE... how dare you. would you prefer I said, "picked a man", "picked a guy", or, even better to incite your ridiculous sensitivities - "picked a bitch"...

Shame on you...
welcome to ignore.

5. At least she's an economics and finance expert, isn't she?
Since McCain has no knowledge of economics issues and the economy is the biggest issue in the coming election, it's good that Sarah Palin has a Ph.D. or equivalent in economics and has already proven her expertise. She has, hasn't she? Right? Yes?

16. You mean she doesn't even know anything about Arabian horses?
At least the Chimp's selections had expertise in some area under the sun.

10. HA! good one, GloriaSmith, won't it be a treat if she doesn't know some obvious stuff that
much better picks like Condi or Kay would have known easily??? We can ONLY hope!

12. Basically, yeah. The GOP knows this election is over, so they decided to go with a token female.
Just to say that they did.

It's the only explanation. They can't actually think they'll win with this woman. Kay Bailey Hutchinson or Condi, maybe...but not Sarah Palin.

17. it's gotta be, the Gov of Alaska is not something I'd consider being a good pick
by a candidate for the VEEP role, esp. when that candidate has no experience involving the #1 issue that the guy who picked her said is SOOOOOO important. It makes him look incompetent (big surprise, right?)

13. OMG -- Pooty and the Saudis are salivating
over the thought they will get to do business with her. Talk about your babe in the woods.

I hope there is a VP debate. Biden will clean her clock in a millisecond.

There isn't enough time to bring her up to speed on international relations. It's like the time I took a statistics course in college. The professor started the first day by saying "I hope you have a good calculus background. If you don't, please get one -- by the next class."

18. ooh! good one!
I hope Biden says that about her International relations background being so weak! If I get to see him I'll say that to him, but I'm sure he's salivating at this opportunity to win it for Obama, shockingly, from a debate with her if all goes well - I cannot BELIEVE he made this choice for Veep... all this time for a YOUNGER candidate than Obama with less experience! My goodness!

19. To suggest that Obama's experience level is a problem
and then to pick someone like Palin is just weird.
