		<description>Sarah Palin was a beauty contestant. People like beauty contestants. The men love her because she looks good. The women wish they looked like her. Can she run the country? who cares, no one. Remember, the public voted for Bush 2 times.</description>

		<description>To quote/paraphrase Sam Harris, no one would want an &#039;average&#039; neurosurgeon or even an &#039;average&#039; carpenter, why the hell would anyone want an average (at best) person in potentially the most difficult job in the world?</description>

		<description>It&#039;s so scary to think that Americans would intentionally cast their votes for someone simply because that person is &quot;like them.&quot;  Whatever happened to relevant experience, vision, and being informed about the issues that we must care about?  I think soccer moms and hockey moms are wonderful, but I don&#039;t want one either as my VP or, heaven forbid, as president!   What I do not hear are Americans asking the tough questions and listening for answers that will give us insight into the expertise, knowledge, and character of all candidates, but especially this one, since there is so little known about her and there are so many worrisome stories that have gone unexplained.  Some have already been verified, though the governor continues to act as if she does not have to explain herself or.answer to anyone.  Alaskans love her (though it seems there are many who actually don&#039;t), so it is assumed that all of us softies in the lower 48 must also.  But the most troubling thing is the negative campaign--little attention to issues--and then charging that her opponent is the one attacking.  McCain suggesting that if only Obama had agreed to town hall meetings the campaign wouldn&#039;t have taken such a negative turn!  Huh???  Reminds me of when I taught elementary school and a student would claim that if only the other guy hadn&#039;t said something he didn&#039;t like or looked at him funny, then he wouldn&#039;t have had to punch the guy.  Only makes sense to an eight year old who either can&#039;t control his temper or one who has learned to be manipulative and deny responsibility.  It also seems that the press could play a stronger role in helping keep the focus where it should be and asking the tough questions..</description>
