Why, because she is attractive? I can't think of any other reason.

Palin is strongly anti-choice, opposing abortion even in the case of rape or incest.

She supported right-wing extremist Pat Buchanan for president in 2000.

Palin thinks creationism should be taught in public schools.

She's doesn't think humans are the cause of climate change.

Is Palin the most qualified person that McCain could have picked?

I am embarrassed that he picked Palin. Can you imagine her as our President? It can happen. He is 72 years old and had cancer four times.

I believe if they become President and Vice-President, he has put our country in jeopardy in the event that he would die.

Other countries must be laughing at us, IMO.

I FEEL VERY SAFE AND SECURE WITH HER AS VP!

Evidently McCain thought he was going to lose for sure, so threw up a "Hail Mary".

Anyone who thinks Palin is more qualified than Obama is insane.

Who is Sarah Palin?
Here's some basic background:


She was elected Alaska's governor a little over a year and a half ago. Her previous office was mayor of Wasilla, a small town outside Anchorage. She has no foreign policy experience.

Palin is strongly anti-choice, opposing abortion even in the case of rape or incest.

She supported right-wing extremist Pat Buchanan for president in 2000.

Palin thinks creationism should be taught in public schools.

She's doesn't think humans are the cause of climate change.

She's solidly in line with John McCain's "Big Oil first" energy policy. She's pushed hard for more oil drilling and says renewables won't be ready for years. She also sued the Bush administration for listing polar bears as an endangered species—she was worried it would interfere with more oil drilling in Alaska.

How closely did John McCain vet this choice? He met Sarah Palin once at a meeting. They spoke a second time, last Sunday, when he called her about being vice-president. Then he offered her the position.

So Governor Palin is a staunch anti-choice religious conservative. She's a global warming denier who shares John McCain's commitment to Big Oil. And she's dramatically inexperienced.
In picking Sarah Palin, John McCain has made the religious right very happy. And he's made a very dangerous decision for our country.

Did we forget that congress has done nothing but block anything that came through in the last 8 years? And they have a lower approval rating than Pres Bush

What do you expect with Bush?

I commented on Biden see page 1 of this thread. Biden isn't as interesting to the media & masses, he's not perfect & at times has mouth works faster than his brain, but I would be extremely surprised if anyone can find a scandel. He's been working hard in the senate for 36 years & the work isn't as news worthy as the drama he has pretty much avoided. I think he should have been the Democratic presidental nominee.

ORAL SEX IN THE OVAL OFFICE

It's better than the anal sex we've received from this administration.

THIS IS A VERY IGNORANT AND UNCALLED FOR REMARK

LINDYY

Well, finally, someone giving a statement with some substanative information, (although I myself am not in favor of biden)and not bashing a 17 year old and a VP candidate because of the outside of marriage pregnancy.............

The majority (not everyone) of people who are making such a tadoo about this subject are the ones who are pro abortion....so why the sudden flip flop and attacking someone simply because her daughter has decided to give birth to her baby and NOT have an abortion?

Now, do not start with the moral agenda, I specifically remember a president who carried on an affair while PRESIDENT, and having ORAL SEX IN THE OVAL OFFICE.......so are the opponents of Republicans doing a "do as we say, NOT as we do" stand on certain issues?
