Anyone else in my boat? Pissed off they picked such a ludicrous fundamentalist as the running mate? I feel neglected as a moderate-right conservative that they yielded to the far-right morons with picking this broad. I actually think she's too stupid and powerhungry to even do the standard two-face and become moderate. She seems like the type that will run in 2012 on a hitleresque platform

Under a mask.
Voted for McCain during primary(independent).
Was very surprised with his choice of VP.

Anyone who thinks that it wont play a part in votes is a fool.

Don't hate her but believe she is eminently un qualified. I have no idea why a guy who has pretty good political instincts would make a move like this. The country is in the center and he picks some gimmicky candidate who appeals to Rush Limaugh Sean Hannity and about 10M more people who would have voted for McCain anyway. He could have kept this a lot a closer with a better pick.

I've always liked McCain, but this ticket is awful. Would have voted or Obama either way though.

Stupid? Too bad she has more executive experience than Obama. Any 1 questioning Obama on his experience. I am from Chicago and I know what a community organizer is. It's a raciest....let me see how I can help the poor. I can help the poor...get a job and take a loan and get ur azz in college and pay a student loan like I did. I didn't have the united nigro college fund I had a bank and a loan. I don't like Obamas views of socialism...I don't like punishing the ones who succeed. A tax will come to one who make 250,000 then its 200,00 now its 150,000...(150,000 now ur in my country and I am not rich and 150,000 isn't shit where I am from) WHY BE SUCCESSFUL?????? UR encouraging young minds to to not be successful so they won't be taxed. DONT punish success

Skeeter, where has obama even been mentioned in this thread befoer you brought him up?

Palin is a moron, thats the point.

Palin has more Presidential credentials than Obama. Governor, mayor, conservative, mother, pro gun, anti-abortion, low taxes, smart, hard worker from a truly middle class family, anti-gay marriage, what is not to like?

WTF has Obama ever run in his life? Can you tell me anything he has legislated in the Senate? yeah keep looking, nothing but a socialist.

Governor of alaska, wow.

Mayor of Wasilla? Is that really a credential?

Conservative? that's not a credential, thats her view

I'd keep going on your stupid list but my dog has to go shit so I have to take him on a walk.

Seriously though, I'm not even an Obama supporter, but you are so ignorant you assume I am. Must be nice living in a stupid black and white world like you do.

In all honesty, I just watched her speak live on CNN from Wasilla, and I should take back my comment that she perhaps couldn't change to become more moderate. She did, for the first time I've ever heard her, say some very sane and moderate things.

But I will not take back the statement that she's nothing special. I really don't think she is any smarter than your average girl off the street.

mother, smart

Hmm, since when is being a mother a Presidential credential? And are you somehow suggesting Palin is smart compared to Obama? Seems that would be your thought flow, or what you are asking people to believe.

Interesting the interpretations you see these days...

I don't think she is stupid but I think that the handlers thought they could connect to the Walmart Republicans by having her act like Ellie Mae Clampet. The people around her as a dumb as crap that is for sure.

I think if he woulda picked a more moderate running mate, this would have been a HELL of a lot closer, he might have even pulled it off.
