24. Yet you don't mention that LBJ died at 64 and that Kennedy was assassinated.
Not all that unlikely considering mcsame's history of cancer, is it?

25. "McCain has a clean medical record" - McCain has had cancer 4 times.

35. the average age of death for a male - 72 ...
McCain turned 72 on the day he picked this clown.

It can not be understated, the sheer irresponsibility of the pick.

38. But he was a POW for 5 1/2 years
If he could survive that, he can live forever.

7. And he's well over 70, so it's quite possible.
This is a deeply irresponsible VP pick showing piss-poor judgment.

9. Reagan was shot what, 69 days into his presidency- and was younger
than McCain.

Had the Dr's not been as skilled as they were, Reagan would have died- and Bush sr. would have become president.

Does America really want to put the future in the hands of a beauty queen hockey mom 2yr. Gov. from Alaska???

33. Maybe Palin's husband. Afterall, she's an evangelical Christian
so, doesn't she have to submit to the authority of her husband? Isn't that the premise of the Promise Keepers? Isn't that an important tenet of her fundamentalist faith? If she believes that The Bible must be interpreted literally, then she takes the Old Testament's admonition to women to submit to their husbands as gospel. Which means, her husband is in charge. Not her.

15. Shows how much he cares, huh?
This is his fatal blunder, b/c it is DISHONORABLE and takes away his honor-cloak. Now, he's left naked. It is total and obvious disregard for this country, clear enough for any fool to see.

17. With each passing day McCain works himself into
a cheat proof deficit.

Obama changed the dynamic. He and Joe just have to work it, with some help from about 35 million of their closest friends.

28. It's an irresponsible choice.
Thinking people will see it for what it is, a transparent Rovesque ploy putting party before country as always. Wingnuts and Freepers can cheer till they're hoarse, this was still a terribly foolish, irresponsible choice made by a terribly foolish, irresponsible old man.

36. Well the media is handling her with kid gloves
and portraying her as an awesome choice! We had all better wake up and get the real truth about Palin out there or McCain is going to win this thing. I have watched the media intently for the past 24 hours and they are really propping her up and are not explaining her positions honestly at all. We can not let this woman end up a heartbeat away from the Presidency of the United States. It is blatently obvious that the media is not going to do their job. They brag about how more people watched their network for Obama's speech than any other network, etc. but the Palin story is the top story.

44. I never thought there could be an administration or potential president worse than Bush..
but this could well, God forbid, end up being it (in the worst case scenario of them actually pulling this off, of course..). Leave it to the Republicans to find someone who could actually make that possible...
