| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:23:22 PM | I can't wait for the debates. Obama will eat McCain for lunch as will Biden with Palin.
Only Mr Obama has yet to eat anybody for lunch, in any debate.
While I like Biden, and consider him a big plus to the Democratic Campaign, he didn't do that well in the primary debates either.
Obama tends to not come across very slick when the heat is on and the script is not available. For his sake, its a smart move to continue to try and avoid them, at all costs.

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:27:41 PM | trying to mitigate the fact that 38,000,000 people tuned into his speech last night.
Arent you forgetting something important? It was a historic moment if you remember. Because of his color, not his beliefs. Remember that one? Youre acting like all the 38 million are voting for him. It was to witness a historic moment also. It wasnt only his speech people were curious about.

aaahahahahaaa what kind of experience is he going to beat/marinate McCain with?
That man truly does not know anything about her. Not her legal problems, not her dissing Hillary, nothing. Big deal... I bet McCain can google her as we did. | |

hey..maybe she can ask Obama to coach her on that.
No need to bother the President with such tasks, his teaching days are over. Besides Biden will give her all the schooling she needs for her future run for office since she and McCain are heading back to their respective states after 11/4/08.

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:32:50 PM | For those that are comparing Palin and Obama's lack of political acumen and savvy (since even with limited experience, he still beats her hands down), Obama has just weathered a grueling months-long primary campaign, the toughest in decades, maybe ever. He's battle tested. She isn't.
Obama has proven himself a great orator (some have evidently forgotten he wrote most if not all of the crucial, make-or-break speeches he gave during his campaign thus far). She hasn't.
I have complete confidence Obama will handle himself well in debates against McCain. I don't with Palin. Unless she has some sort of Vulcan mind-meld to help absorb information, Biden will slaughter her.
Even on basic comparisons, Obama comes out ahead. | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is................................ Posted: 8/29/2008 3:33:48 PM | Here's a quote from Paul Begala
For a man who is 72 years old and has had four bouts with cancer to have chosen someone so completely unqualified to become president is shockingly irresponsible. Suddenly, McCain's age and health become central issues in the campaign, as does his judgment....
[now remember, folks: a candidates' first presidential decision is who he selects as vice president].....
In his first presidential decision, John McCain has shown that he is willing to endanger his country, potentially leaving it in the hands of someone who simply has no business being a heartbeat away from the most powerful, complicated, difficult job in human history. | |

For a man who is 72 years old and has had four bouts with cancer to have chosen someone so completely unqualified to become president is shockingly irresponsible. Pfffffftttt. How worried do you think WE are that Obama is shockingly irresponsible AND completely unqualified? | |

And, I would hazard a guess that anyone who doesn't GET that, and doesn't GET how cynical and insulting to women that this pick is IF it's intended to win over PUMAs, doesn't GET feminism. whether I agree with Ms Palin's views or not, I am very proud that McCain saw fit to nominate her- you were not a Hillary fan either, Palin and Clinton are fantastically successful women who may break the glass ceiling as far as politics go, both different when it comes to women's rights, but both strong and amazing human beings none the less
In this case, I suspect that Sarah Palin MIGHT understand women's issues, but if she does, she does NOT advocate for them--and in fact, she does the reverse-- I suspect that you may only think a woman advocates women's issues IF they agree with your own belief system- | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:34:58 PM | I can't wait for the debates. Obama will eat McCain for lunch as will Biden with Palin.  You mean like he did at Lake Forest? If my memory serves me, Obama was given a smack down, Naval Style. Come on back if you ever wanna try again, we done told you once.. *continues humming song* Indeed, the Biden/Palin debate may not be similar to the Mike Tyson kind of beating that round one was, but lets face it, Obama's no match for McCain when it comes to debating. To think otherwise one must be (I'll have what hes drinking) But no Koolaide, thanks | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:35:19 PM | Greeaat! Well, we'll definitely see if the Koolaid continues! Friend! Wake up! Don't you see that the Koolaid was all the words of the speech last night!!???? ObamAllHat doesn't have the experience to deliver! Yes, he's got a silver tongue!....but NOT the means! Can you tell me with what he's going to do it? Only one of the two has the experience and relationships already in place to get it or anything done..... If anyone is drinking Koolaid here, it's the one's who didn't question him! | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:45:30 PM | | Who posted the HUMILITY comment? Was that you Apologist? This administration is the complete opposite of humility. That's the reason we are at war now, our economy is in the dump, Katrina failed, scores of young soldiers are dead and dying as well as innocent women and children in Irag, laws broken, changed and ignored and you have the gall to say that republicans are humble?!!!!! AMAZING!!! This is exactly why the world hates us!! Arrogance is more like it. Republican arrogance! Bullies! The whole lot of them. Lets be honest with ourselves people come on!!!! | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:48:53 PM | From the venom coming from the left, seems to me that McCain probably made a pretty good choice. She's an attractive woman and a lot of people and probably some HRC supporters will vote for her on that basis alone. She is a great pick for the conservative wing of the Republican party, since she is pro-life, pro-gun, and for such a short career already accomplished quite a bit. Lots of voters sit in the middle and this will certainly help McCain.
On the experience issue, the left hasn't got much of an argument against her since Obama has accomplished nothing at all that I am aware of, and in fact voted present a lot in the Senate. Presidents can't punt, they have to lead.
For those of you who think its terrible to be the for the death penalty, but are all for executing 1 million unborn babies a year in this country; I am speechless. How can anyone argue that murderers who have taken a life deserve to live, but babies deserve to die??? | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 3:49:39 PM | I don't know who this woman is. Hmm.
She's certainly attractive. Unfortunately, I don't care about that in my vice president.
As a former "disgruntled" Hillary supporter and lifetime Democrat, I watched Obama's speech last night and was blown away. The things he said finally resonated with me. The hope on the crowd's faces resonated.
"The Stefano" from this forum said something not so long ago that has played over and over in my mind since he posted it. He said "The youth deserve a young president. We've had our time, let them have a president for their era." Or something to that effect. He made a very important, valid point and despite myself, I've not been able to forget his words. When I look into the eyes of my beautiful, young, nine year old daughter, I think about his words...
Obama came across in a sincere fashion last night, and he was humble. He made me want to believe again, though I honestly can't believe I'm writing this because I have been so angry at the Democrats for so long now.
I don't know who Sarah Palin is. I wanted Romney or Huckabee.
I don't know what I'm going to do now and will have to wait for the debates. I'm enjoying the politics of this election but every time I turn around it becomes more complicated for me personally.

You and the rest of the republican party. Amazing just amazing. They're all laughing at him. How sad. | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 4:00:03 PM | Methinks its a lost cause folks..
The Kool-aid drinkers figure if he says it, he can and will do it, without regard to methods, or means, or necessary resources, or in many cases even desire. Doesn't matter that he's never done anything notable to date..
Mr O is not exactly merely mortal after all. They built him a temple to anoint the teeming masses from, and everything.. As well they probably should.
The Frenzy-Effect is like that.

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 4:09:55 PM | Did you ever get to experience true leadership?
I am not an easily swayed person!
My dad is a life long Republican!
Obama isn't just pourning sugar on things, he inspires people BECAUSE he is genuine!
This is a guy who's mom was on freaking food stamps, who DIDN'T put his ethnicity on his application to Harvard because he didn't want to use affirmative action as his method of success. I am very proud that our nation has matured to the point that such a fine person can have a chance to become president. | |

| It looks like McCain's VP pick is Sarah Palin Posted: 8/29/2008 4:20:39 PM | I/We just dont like what he is 'preaching'. I agree. I'm just not in alignment at ALL with what he's preaching. But on the other hand too, I'm not as afraid of him and what he's preaching any more the way I was say a few months ago when I didn't even have a sense of him and first heard him. Since then, I've learned that even if I disagree with what he's preaching, it's okay, ....because preaching about something and actually being effective are two different things too, and I'm fully confident now that if indeed by some fluke he does get elected, he still won't be able to deliver what he's promising. It'll just be another "do nothing" for another four years. Well, that's better than actually getting done what he says he wants to do anyway. | |
