Actually that same scenario played out in a solid Democrat family that I know, and the father is in jail on, I think, his second felony, so I don’t want to disparage all Democrats. However, the general theme of the dem party is as such.

The young woman who had the baby was very irresponsible, as evidenced by her choice in boyfriends, but from what I hear she is a very good mother and loving her new found responsibility. Good for her, and maybe her idiot boyfriend will turn around too.....these things do happen...:)

OMG all that and she fishes!! Now I know I am in love!!!

Many women (regardless of party) will not let the second chance in history to vote for a female VP to go by. Many Black (regardless of party) will not let the chance to vote the first major party Black candidate to go by.

Yup, and lets see....how many women are there vs how many AA's....landslide McCain.

I think those close to McCain are probably perusing the New Media and getting an earful,eyeful. This brilliant choice seems to infer such.

My husband hates to fish with me because I always catch more AND BIGGER fish than he does.

I know why it is there, but she needs to “suck it up” and at least wear a flesh colored wrap, that is if she still really needs it.

She is probably tired, but that hot pink thing is tacky.

Thank you Retrokitten... I shouldn’t have worried...

Just wanted to let the three of you know that she made a nice little lunch for our Viking Kitties!

[rodguy911]

Just teriffic!,(I am in danger of running out of adverbs)

[rodguy911]

Not too unusual, women often out fish men,lots of reasons why.

It's so refreshing to see a normal person with a normal family on the podium.

They put one the exact same color on our little Boston Terrier after she had ACL surgery on her leg...they said they did it because it matched her harness and because "she's a girl."

Maybe that's why Cindy's is hot pink...just because "she's a girl", not 'cause she wears a hot pink harness part! LOL!

I can understand why you might feel that way about someone who really hasn't been vetted (by us all). That was an advantage Mitt had. The MSM would have jumped all over Mitt as well, but it is doubtful they would've found anything on Mitt we haven't all heard before.

Yes, currently, Mitt has better experience to step in for McCain you're right, another advantage.

But the choice for Republicans is not the typical boring choice and will breathe more life into and strengthen McCain's campaign. Whats more, I bet it threw, the D's for a loop.

Also, unlike Quayle (who I liked very much), Sarah Palin is tougher and has a stronger personality and will be able to well handle the arrows the D's throw her way.

[rodguy911]

Exactly!!! The American family is what it is all about and no one can represent all the best things about it better than the Palin family. McCain made a stellar and stealth choice and we will all be more than happy about it.

[dforest]

Oh Geesh, please tell me no more! LOL

[rodguy911]

Yet another form of rat extermination.

Guess what — I’m a stay-at-home, homeschool educating mother, in a “classic” marriage, and I STILL let her have it. It’s the choice of the family how they wish to live - particularly if her husband supports her in her decision. If they have decided that this is what is right for their family, then who are we to say anything? That’s my feeling... I for one am very grateful for the sacrifice she is making for our country. And, I am also very proud of her — she is a great role model for our young women.

By the way — that particular person that is being spoken of - was part of the Viking Kitties lunch today...
