Well, she has only been governor for 20 months, and just of the state of Alaska. The plus is that she hasnt been corupted by polotics yet. The bad is that she probebly wont know what to do.
But as jon stewers says, the job of the vice president is to wait to become president. (There are exceptions, like Dick Cheney, who is the VP, but is the leader of the country, while Buh is his puppet.)
Her daughter, who is 17, is pregnant, and isnt married. Not that this cares to me, but a lot of the very right wing conservatives that frown on such things are in the republican party.
Though, I remember hearing that McCain never picked her or chose her, but someone in his campain cabnent picked her.
But basically, I think she will give a great boost for Obama, in other words, a big dive for McCain.
Ether candidate seems promising, I just prefer Obama over him. McCain is the senator from my state. However, Many Arizonans dont like him that much at all.

I find that the way she latches on to religion as a motive for every decision to be a little scary. I disagree with her conservative, narrow minded beliefs, and I think that being governer for not even a full term doesn't qualify her to be president of the united states. I mean most people need a good 4 years to fuck up and have it come out and she just hasn't been in the kind of public spotlight on the national level where anything would.
In general, I just don't like her. I mean, she seems amiable enough if you are a christian, but she's devisive and delusional. Plus she hasn't seen out any of her projects all the way through and there's a pretty good chance that a couple of them will fail, like that pipeline.

According to my father, Sarah Palin's speech made absolutely no sense at all.
That's why I'll vote for Obama.

I think its fucken stupid when people say shit like this. She has more experience than Obama get the hell out of here.
I dont know about any of you but I can represent for the Latino community that actually lives in a big city and Palin is a fucken joke. She prides herself on being a hockey mom obviously she wasn't doing that good of a job. Otherwise, her 17 year old would have her mind set on going to school and starting her life rather than getting banged up.
As far as her being pro-life... whatever! But how does she suppose we help all these teenage mothers that have no job no education no healthcare. I mean they don't all have a mothers running for vice president.
And new flash to Palin and everyone else talking about Alaska... THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE LIVING IN 3 BLOCKS of CHICAGOs SOUTHSIDE THAN IN THE ENTIRE STATE. These people face hard times. No money no resources no jobs no education.. NOTHING. SEND PALIN to the south side of Chicago and she won't know the first thing to do.
Her being on the ticket is a fucken joke.

Yeah, like Obama has all that much more. Hate to break it to you, but from a quality vs. quantity perspective; being a lawmaker with little to distinguish himself is not as good as being an executive where you have to actually make decisions and manage government programs.
So you're talking about the Republican's choice of being a VP...while they are talking about the Democrat's choice for the top job. Kind of a double-edged sword that cuts both ways (if a little bit deeper against Obama).

Who wouldn't joke and NOT vote for Obama? Didn't you see her speech last night? All I heard out of her was political blows and assaults at the DEMs. Seriously, do you want someone whose good at making attacks instead of discussing about what THEY can do to get this country out of the shitter? What about the economy? The Middle class? She said at the end of her speech she would represent the "people" of the United States of America... what people? The people that make around her pay grade or those struggling to make a living like almost all of us?

Originally I was going to vote for Hillary Clinton, but alas, she didn't get the nomination. When it became Obama versus McCain, I started to feel a bit lost. Maybe if Obama had picked Hillary as VP I would be voting for Obama. But he didn't, so I'm not sure who I will vote for now... I'm not too excited about either mainstream candidate.

You sir, are an idiot. You obviously know where she comes from if you mentioned her state later in your post. Also, I'm sure she does know there is actually a world beyond Alaska.
Please shut up and don't post until you have something logical to say.

The thing that got me is how, in the British press, they're actually reporting quotes and articles attributible to...wait for it...The National Enquirer. Seriously, shouldn't journalists be trained to spot where it ceases to be a source due to the reputation of said source being up there with Michael Jackson in the childcare community?
I'm also am,azed Palin didn't use her spotlight to say "You're not voting for me, so back off" before going all hockey mom on them. Or is it that there's no dirt on McCain (which is suspicious - everyone has spots on their record), so they have to defer muckraking to his #2? If so, that's a combination of desperation and viciousness - you're so bent out of shape trying to unearth dirt on one guy, can't, so you focus more effort by trying to do so with their associates.

I really have no idea why McCain picked her as his vice president other than the fact that she's a woman.
She makes it seem like just anyone can go up thre and help lead a country.
Her daughter's pregnant What more can i say?
Where'd my board go?

Her ideals alone are reason enough not to pick Mccain for president. She is ten times as conservitve as him. And grossly uninformed on key topics.

I know for a fact that the same wolves she is killing are trying to be saved by my states government(montana). Its not ethical or humanitarian to play god in such a way. Even to help another species. She has corrupt views, end of story. She is too far right for me.
O and please link to the site with info on the caribou saving.
And if she is so concerned with saving the caribou why would she promote drilling in the wildlife terrain. The alaska oil pipeline already screwed up the caribou migration.

Well McCain is very old and could die so then Palin would be president so after considering that scenario then you should care about Palin. I believe the VP is a useess job but you should judge the VP candidate because the president could always die and leave the VP president.

I don't think much of her, especially seeing how she handles herself on interviews. From this point on I think she'd help McCain out more by not doing anything but showing up next to him. I find it funny that people keep throwing up the fact that she's more "Experienced" than Obama, but at the same time she's more experienced than McCain's dusty old ass and Biden as well. Now I could see her running for President in the beginning, but how she handles herself is laughable and matches Bush in terms of composure. But at the same time, after eight years of people not learning from their previous mistakes, they'd more than likely put her in office as well as McCain.
I know the argument that "Well, at least they're better than Bush." For how long? I'll take my chances with Obama and Biden. Because really, there's a lot of fucked up things in my opinion concerning Palin's views on a few things. I won't get on her case about her daughter being knocked up. I could give a fuck. And going after her from that standpoint is ridiculous when her past involving politics is the real news in itself. Like leaving the town she was Mayor of some million dollars in debt.
Also the fact that if anyone got raped, the bitch had the women charged for the rape kits. But hey, this is what caught my attention, only the shit that mattered and what could more than likely happen if McCain croaks. I don't have much of a problem with McCain...to a certain extent even though he's just another Bush upon the horizon. I don't give a damn how much you project how much of Maverick you are, or let alone reformer, the only difference is, they don't sound alike to me. But their opinions echo each other.
But going back to what I mentioned before. I see her as nothing more than a great pick by McCain. Not in terms of the perfect choice...no. His campaign finally got attention so he'd stop bitching about the press Obama would get, even though since the beginning up until now (And this has been proven) the majority of the press Obama got was negative in comparison to McCain's which was positive. Problem was, not many people gave a fuck about McCain until he picked her.
Now once again, many may disagree. That's understandable. But from where I'm standing it makes perfect since. She's pretty much Obama's only form of competition in this race...but only as a VP and nothing more. This race as a whole is interesting. The most "Experienced" person in the race is a VP. Idiots who cry for experience worry about what Obama would do, when in comparison Bush was pretty much as "experienced" as Palin, and look at the wonderful things he did for this country...
But I guessed I missed it since I'm not a high class individual. Now, understand this. Once more, in the beginning I had no problems with McCain. Reason being because I've seen as the most Liberal Republican, and that was fine. Even though I'm going to vote Obama, I wouldn't of minded it much if McCain got in office. But then as the race goes on and Obama pretty much was destroying him, instead of picking a worthwhile VP, he picked Palin. That's what killed my somewhat support for him, and really. I can't stand the Conservatives. McCain was the only one I could see in office and I wouldn't have cared. Well, him or Ron Paul. But whatever. It's her history + his age that destroyed my hope for McCain, and nothing more.
Oh well. I gotta tell you, more than likely McCain and Palin will end up winning this, and while that news may end up being as unsatisfying as it is for me. I'd more than likely be happier taking a chance with Obama in office. Although really, if it was gonna be like this, I actually think Palin should've been running as President on the Republican side. Everything McCain lacks, she has, minus common sense (When asked certain questions no sane person would answer, especially when in a campaign.) and some good composure. I'll leave with that statement.
Still original, creative & innovative, most known unknown.

maybe its because there aren't very many wolves left in Montana? side note, Montana isn't Alaska.

playing god? since when is everything man does "playing god"? population management is a simple and effective tool that is used throughout the world effectively.
Even to help another species. She has corrupt views, end of story. She is too far right for me.
i don't give a damn if shes right, left, or missing her fruit loops, the point is that the site you linked to made a stupid point and people are eating it up.
O and please link to the site with info on the caribou saving.
all the sites your site linked to indicated that the killing of wolves, and bears, was in order to protect moose and caribou populations.
And if she is so concerned with saving the caribou why would she promote drilling in the wildlife terrain. The alaska oil pipeline already screwed up the caribou migration.
so she shouldn't bother trying to fix what she fucked up?

Well, she honestly scares me! Sorry but where I'm from if I thought Jesus rode a dinosaur I would probably be locked up! However she's running to be the second in command of the USA. John McCain, he's fairly charismatic although he's the same as Bush, he's also an older man and if something happened this scary fanatical Christian woman would rule the US. Hillery would have sleuthed McCain. Lol I'm not even from the US and I somehow care.
