A community organizer's job doesn't even come close to a Govenor of a large state, or even Mayor of a city, no matter how large or how small. She is much much more qualified to be Vice President, or even President, than Barack Obama. The people who are putting her down for lack of experience, are really showing their ridiculous ignorance! Obama is an excellent speaker, but that is all he has going for him. Talk is cheap. It's easy to tell everyone what all he is going to do for them, but it is absolutely impossible for him to do all the things he has promised. The one thing he has told us (that he will definitely raise taxes through the roof) is the only thing the public can count on him doing...and I don't think they will be happy (if he gets the job) when they wake up and realize they have been duped with his lying promises. WAKE UP AMERICA!!! Anyone with a thinking brain would know that Sarah Palin has had much more experience than Obama who has had next to no experience.

The same universe where George W. Bush is considered a great President. In our world, Palin is utterly unqualified and President Bush has been the worst President in at least 30 years, if not more. Nobody is buying this crap. McCain lives in an alternate universe. The same universe where George W. Bush is considered a great President.

I'm no fan of his, but saying that Palin is more qualified than him is definitely stretching it.

Seems McCain, is getting somewhat senile and likes the idea of a TROPHY VICE PRESIDENT, JUST LIKE HE LIKES A TROPHY WIFE. No wonder he doesn't know how many houses he owns. How many Americans can say they don't know how many homes they own, without being comitted.

The Democrats with
the help of the established media can fault Gov.Palin for her lack of sophistication would have had a great time with Lincoln or Truman.

It doesn't seem like he ever answer a question honestly. I can't think of a single person who is down on McCain because she's not drinking cocktails with rich people. Frankly, I'm sure she is at this point. Being a “popular” governor doesn't strike me as a prerequistite.

Nothing about this choice makes sense past the election. It energized their base to some degree, it gave McCain a bit of a wildcard… But what happens after she wins? We have someone who can't even tell you what her job will be. Fun.
