McCain picks Alaska's Govenor for VP

OK all, what do you think of this pick? I think she is a great choice! Even if the Hillary rebels don't like her she solidifies the conservative base. Independents & conservative dems should like her over NObama. Still think NObama is an empty suit, a Chicago political machine cronie, with no experience, just a silver tongue.

Who?, me biased?

Think she might also attract some blue collar males as her husband is a common union worker. Her experience is not great but its better than Hussein Obama. Time will actually tell when we see how she relates to her audiences.

You are right about Obama--he is a very good speaker but doesn't really say anything (reminds me of the black preachers actually). We have seen how he comes across when he has to fly by the seat of his pants to answer tough questions without a prompter---not very good.

I just stood with a wide open gape upon hearing the coverage on CNN this morning. A comment from a Hillaryite, something about cracking the glass ceiling and Palin being a nobody from nowhere, really irritated me.

On the one hand, I don't like McCain. On the other hand I very much like Palin, and not just because she's a milf. I have no opinion of Obama or Biden so now I am stuck between a hunk of sharp cheddar and a gooey place.

Re: McCain picks Alaska's Govenor for VP

Whoa! Talk about a kick in the nuts (for the Dems)
I love it!
I heard some stories about Palin after she was elected Gov and how she was shaking up the whole works.
This is just what the Ticket needs.
A mover and a shaker (no milf pun intended).

And did anyone know that the set designer for the Democrat Convention was the same designer for Brittney Spears?
I wonder who will be doing the Republican set?
I say get Gene Simmons

Re: McCain picks Alaska's Govenor for VP

I had to chuckle today when the Dems attack her experience. She obviously has as much experience as Hussein Obama and in a far more responsible position AND she is ONLY running for VP.

And you are right they sure can't say she is more of the same and just another politician---she attacked her own party's corruption seems to really be cleaning house.

A bit refreshing, don't you think???????????????

Re: McCain picks Alaska's Govenor for VP

Obama. First off I don't like this spoon feeding everyone that is going to just make everything right. I hate it, I can't stand it. He sits and talks about all these reforms that he wants to do but I can bet you everything I own even a 1/3 of it wont get even close to be done. He is just telling everyone what they wanna hear and they hear and think O he's going to be great!

I just got done arguing with my family about this, they (all of them) want Obama but I don't. He tells us that He wants health care reform, wants to stop depending on foreign oil, wants to get started on alternative methods. But all I can think is, you feeding in to what you want most but can't stop to realize that it wont happen. In order to stop depending on forgien oil it will take many years to accomplish this. You think Oil companies which back car makers want them to make alternative cars? Hell no. My family contiuned to argue "what is McCain going to do?" but its not what he said he is going to do but rather he hasnt lied and promised us.

He offers a real solution to higher gas prices which does include off shore drilling. How else are we going to stop depending on foreign oil then to supply our own. Now that is not to say that we need to keep using all fossil fuels but damn it we can't just switch over night.

Another thing is the reason people buy into Obama as much is because the economy is in a slump. Look back and you'll see we go to war and the economy suffers. We finish said war and the economy enjoys a nice time of growth and prosperity. I 100% back OUR TROOPS. People seem to confuse backing our troops and saying that everything done over there is right. Its not we have gotten ourselves stuck there policing a country. but we can't very well just get up and leave now can we? We took their leader out of power and opened up Freedom to them. We now have to set forth a working democracy before we can let them on their own.

Gas Prices... Sure we pay 3.50 or even 4 dollars a gallon but look over in Europe and see how much they pay a gallon compared to us. We can't ***** and moan that much about it. Sure their currancy is worth about 1.46 to one dollar but that is a bunch of countries togehter and seeing as we are just one we fair pretty good against it. Damn it we can't to stop paying so much for gas then the retards that buy a Big gas guzzling V8 that is only to ever carry one person would rather buy a smaller vehicle the demand will then decrease and we won't have to pay as much. People also fail to realize we have had electric cars since back in the 20's but they arnt as being made for the simple fact that the battery technology hasnt gone as far as Car technology. We must first catch up in order to be able to drive a decent distance. A recent electric car can go what 80 or 90 miles on a charge? But a car can go what 200 or 300? The recharging thing take much longer then then pumping gas. The technology is many years away and we are to be at least 10 years from seeing the first commercially available to drive everywhere electric cars.


Anyways I'm done ranting I have work in the morning but I'll say this. Just because McCain doenst come out and aww everyone with this great fixes
doesnt mean he doesn't have a plan for stuff. Read up on him before you go tossing Obama on your voting card.
