McCain's pick is.....

thisguyrighthere,

I couldn't agree more.

As I said, Palin is a strong Conservative. Just the kind we needed on our ticket. I'm extremely happy with the pick.

I'm saying this could be another 2000. The polls are going to be extremely close. Obama had a small margin before McCain picked Palin. They are in a dead heat. I am thinking on Nov. 4th, there will be A LOT of unhappy Americans, especially if Obama loses.

This is so transparent it's embarassing. Biden will eat her alive in the VP debates. McCain has just thrown his experience argument in the trash.

she's also in the middle of a ongoing ethics investigation involving a messy divorce her sister went through.

Very true, you mentioned that he threw his experience argument into the trash. I think he has a trick up his way. Or he just thinks picking a woman VP will compensate. I cannot tell until they are getting initial polls in.

McCain knows exactly what he is doing, I can promise you that. He didn't make this choice solely to attract the female vote. He made it because of her conservative values and strong convictions. She's a candidate who will stand up for what we want and will strongly unify the party.

I also don't believe for a moment that Biden will tear her to shreds as an earlier post mentioned. She will and can hold her own. Especially on issues where the Dem's are just plain wrong.

Very true. I'm now just waiting for CNN or Fox to put up a poll on McCain's VP ticket. I will be interested to see people's reactions, mainly democrats.

as a dem, I think its a very obvious ploy at the female vote.

I agree. Were going to get a whole new view on "The running of the bulls" as the butch female crowd chunks Obama over the side. Many will defect out of sheer revenge for his treatment of Hillary.

This is by far the most interesting turn of events in the election process.

It already is.

They are scared to death.

She is a hard working mother of 5, supports gun rights, pro-life, extremely knowledgeable on energy, not afraid to speak her mind. Not to mention she actually has more executive experience than Obama (or anyone else for that matter).

They are shaking in their Italian loafers.

CNN is already raising questions about her experience (after vouching for Obamas) and wondering whether she can handle the duties of VP with a down syndrome child. Seriously! What a joke!



I'm loving this pick more and more with each passing minute.

Me too, I am very excited to see the Democrats tremble like this. I mean last night, I watched the DNC, they HAD IT in the bag. McCain was building up to this by leaking small bits of information. GOP is extremely happy right now, and I am thinking the other possible VP picks McCain still feel satisfied that they picked the right person.

My vote is going to the MILF. She is hot. Who wouldn't want a milf representing the country. She is the perfect vice president pick. I know others agree with me.

The biggest and most obvious question that came into my mind first was her background and her knowledge of economics.


After all, this is the biggest voting point of the election and one that the Democrats are likely to come back to over and over again in the presidential race.

Mccain's biggest weakness is his lack of experience and complete disability in regards to economic planning and policy, and if she doesnt bring some serious substance to the table in this regard then I feel they have seriously made a poor choice here.

While I am not extremely familiar with her as of yet, I do know that she has a tall order ahead going face to face with Joe Biden, a 30+ year standing Senator. She had better bring more to the table than being female or she is in deep trouble.

Can anyone shed any perspective on her history in regard to the economy?

Wow, CNN, Fox, and the New York Times have nothing on her and the economy. But frankly, I couldn't too much. If he picked someone who is a women, fishes, and hunts, that's my pick.

This is seriously who he picked? Wasn't there a huge scandal in her office this year?
If you find this woman "hot" You must have a serious Oedipus complex.

She did have her photo taken for an upcomiong issue but that pic there is a mock up for some guys blog.

AK Gov. Says Staffer Pressed for Trooper's Firing By Kate Klonick - August 13, 2008, 9:53PM In a press conference this afternoon, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) conceded that someone inside her administration pressured the state's Department of Public Safety to fire State Trooper Mike Wooten, Palin's former brother-in-law, who is now embroiled in a bitter custody battle with Palin's sister. Palin's statement is the latest in what has come to be known around Alaska as "Wooten-gate." The scandal began on July 11, when Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan was fired from his post with little explanation, a move that quickly raised questions in Alaska. A few days later, Monegan came forward, stating that he had been pressured by those around Palin to fire Wooten -- but had refused to do so -- a choice that he believes led to his sudden dismissal. Palin denied Monegan's accusations, and a Legislative Council has appointed a special commission to probe the matter.
