Like her or not, Jane I doubt you are that much smarter than her in person.

Rolandthick – Do you fight for dumbies because you are one? I think you debunked your point…..

Honesty- You are incredibly unaware of the state consitutions…they allow most states to go through succession if they so chose to remove themselves from the union . I'n really glad you were not my civics teacher.

Judy – Your comments are emotional, not factual based and uterly stupid. they have no place here. Stay home.

Linda – Do you wor5k? Then you have sacrificed your children too. Wow….I expected the women on the left to be a LOT smarter than this.

You guys are unbeleivable- – blofg after bolg, but the funny thing is – would you have acted any differently if you were in her place? I'm sure a few will have resounding “Yes”, but the majority of you who have some ability to be honest with youreslf will know the answer without having to say it outloud.

In case you haven't heard, Conservatives are drawing away from this pathetic shell of a human being in DROVES. She is not competent to be President thus she should not be VP--and this is the mistake that cost McCain the election. <br><br>It is you poor, uneducated Republicans messing up this country--you want to legislate morality for us all and so you will ignore everything else that is BAD for the country and has been for the past eight years. You claim to be God-fearing but you will allow lies, cheating, stealing, torture, murder and more so that you can pretend you are somehow pleasing God with your vote. You helped put Bush in power--Rove played to your ignorance and did it but he will not do it this time. Get used to the idea of a Democratic Black man as president, Missy, it's going to happen. <br><br>I see right through your proud story of "working your way up from welfare," but you forgot to educate yourself in the process, choosing instead to band together in "Christian" ignorance and fear rather than analyzing facts and truth. You are racist. You fear other religions, other cultures--anything other, this is all due to ignorance and intolerance. Ask your God to forgive you--please. And stop destroying this country.

It is you poor, uneducated Republicans messing up this country–you want to legislate morality for us all and so you will ignore everything else that is BAD for the country and has been for the past eight years. You claim to be God-fearing but you will allow lies, cheating, stealing, torture, murder and more so that you can pretend you are somehow pleasing God with your vote.

I see right through your proud story of “working your way up from welfare,” but you forgot to educate yourself in the process, choosing instead to band together in “Christian” ignorance and fear rather than analyzing facts and truth. You are racist. You fear other religions, other cultures–anything other, this is all due to ignorance and intolerance. Ask your God to forgive you–please. And stop destroying this country.

The person who replied above me covered the serious points necessary to add a bit of reality to your self-indulged fabrication so I won't try to one up him by adding to his points, but give us all a break and just say that you were laughing while you wrote that. I am an independent voter, father of 3, faithful taxpayer, small-business owner, born and raised in the South. The McCain ticket by no means has my vote or for that matter any realistic American's. You should be ashamed of yourself for being the sheep you so coyly remarked that we are.

Please tell me that. What is it, and please use real facts and not made up stuff from Fox News, about Obama that the rest of us are not seeing that you can see. I have read as much information about all 4 of the candidates that I can. I'm an independent voter and have nothing to gain or lose by being partial to any of them without serious consideration. So far I see 3 men that I have great respect for. I can praise all of them, but since it's Obama you think is fooling us I will focus on him. He has spent his adult life doing service to our citizens and become educated through hard work and study. He has learned to deal with adverse situations, no parents other than his grandparents. He is intelligent and a devoted family man. McCain spent 5 horrible years in a prison camp and I give him immense credit for his strength. The rest of his life has been given to him, but that doesn't make him a bad man or not a good leader. Biden has pretty much done the same thing as Obama. Palin, well that's a horse of a different color. Four schools to get her 4 year degree, a beauty queen, fundamental Christian that would like force her beliefs on others and has been associated with a several scandals already in her brief career as a politician. Have you been reading anything about her or watching the news? McCain lost my vote when he picked her as VP and she lost my respect when she accepted because she should know that she isn't prepared for this job. She doesn't know that she doesn't know. Have you heard her explain what the VP job is? You couldn't have or you would know she hasn't a clue. Have you seen any of her interviews? Please study and read and not just Rush or Bill. It's our country and the world we are looking at here. This isn't a high school popularity contest. I do not want a man leading my country that would choose someone like her for the second most important job. If you don't consider and only go on, 'well gosh she's really nice and i like her a lot' you are fool and you hurt everyone with that mentality. Have you been following the events of our country for the past 8 years and seen what mediocre intelligence and understanding will get you. Not to mention that false macho cowboy swagger. I'm a cowboy and I grew up on a ranch. Bush is no cowboy. Please, study. Thank you southernNJmom You're kidding aren't you? Please tell me that.
