Politically ingenious move by McCain.
Vice President does not matter, Quayle was a laughingstock against Bentsen and it did not help Dukakis. People vote the top of the ticket, period. Palin is the exception that will get more votes and money than she will lose.
I like her judgment over Biden and Obummer. She is a maverick with values, the rest is study time. Screw these media quizzes, with gotcha questions like name all McCain’s legislative record. Google it Couric - ask a real question next time. This is a set-up, laughably transparent and voters are not buying the media hysteria.
People are expecting her to fail, so what. Biden is flippant only because he flip flops a lot. He was against the first Gulf war, when the whole world was with us, and then came out for the second after he read the polls. That guy is the biggest fraud, and not even close to being the intellectual he is purported to be. Too much talking head lippage is spent on these word games and not enough on their backgrounds, their moral philosophy, their own views and values. With that she will beat the panderer and the socialist.
We need term limits anyway. I want the old bums out and bring in new blood, every 8 years, every politician has to go home. Stop the corruption.
I wrote Kathleen and apologized for not knowing anything about her although the old girl’s been around for quite awhile. She’s finally gotten her fifteen minutes of fame. Now it’s time to shut your piehole, Kathleen!
The values are key. Lack of experience can be fixed. Lack of values cannot.
