either way we've got something to tell the kids about when they open their history books and ask about the historical 08 election...
You guys are overlooking one major thing...
A hot woman trumps any racial and gender bias...always has.
You find me the biggest white supremacist in the world and I guarantee you if you stick him in a room with Halle Berry for the weekend he is going to overcome his racism at some point during that weekend.
Nevermind.........figured it out, she came out to the theme from RUDY LMAO!!!
I'm pretty sure she was vetted... she's been talking in recent days like she was on the short list.
Pat Buchanan did say this was the riskiest move in political history, though, and I think I agree with him about that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin
Palin, who was also the head of the school Fellowship of Christian Athletes, would lead the team in prayer before games
Palin kept her campaign promises by reducing her own salary, as well as reducing property taxes by 60%.[
Uh.... I don't know about those last two, particularly the Feminists for Life part.Palin is strongly pro-life, a supporter of capital punishment (which is not a pro-life position),[28] and belongs to Feminists for Life.[9]
Agreed.
Damn, I'm glad I'm working in news during this election.
It's funny because it's true.
True. My bad!Because the best thing the Spurs can ask for is another gimpy guard with a bum ankle...
Polls, if they matter, went down slightly because he wasn't HRC, but that was expected. Biden will be a pretty strong Veep. He looks like Alexander the Great compared to what just blew in from Alaska.
Will you be writing articles about the candidates?
If so, I would enjoy reading your takes.
Switch democrats with republicans and you'd be talking about Barack there.
I agree with Pat but who knows how women will react and that is the Voters McCain is going after. He already has the conservatives in hand and now that Palin is kissing Hillary's ass and mentioning her 18 mil votes.
Romney would have been great to raise money... for the economy and he looks presidential.
Palin is 100% pro-life, Life-long NRA member, she hunts - she fishes - she has a glider plane she flies -- mother of 5 - full of character -- she was appoint to the ethics board by the Gov she defeated and resigned when she saw the lack of ethics. She is solid. Not to mention - you will never hear the "experience" attack from the lib s -- nor will you hear them attack her gender - or being a mother with a special needs child - how can someone from the left be that hypocritical -- they can't can they??????
She is conservative to the core !
best of all - you will not hear from Himary for President again.

Now tell me McCain wasn't going for the women's vote.

That is awesome!The two eloped shortly after Palin graduated from college; when they learned they needed witnesses for the civil ceremony, they recruited two residents from the old-age home down the street
You sure did use a lot of words to type, "I'm sexist"
There's a quote floating about how she just sent them a few do ents, not the usual rigamarole. But that could have been smokescreen.
This is pretty risky, and slightly baffling. But McCain didn't have a lot of options.
(Word is, it wasn't his pick anyway.)
I think McCain just put a damper on Obama's rise, how ever slight, in the polls. Let the games begin.

She's a pro life feminist. She believes the s miest of the s should die. Right on.
Don't be a moron. I know it's hard.You sure did use a lot of words to type, "I'm sexist"

Again the Republicans don't campaign to govern, they campaign to campaign. They win and then don't know what to do when they get there.
This'll get a bounce in interest, but she's really weak. Word is she hasn't even been vetted yet. "
She is even a creationist ? woah -- is that totally the worst thing ever or what dude ?
It'll be interesting. The American electorate is flightly, batty, fruity, and more than a little stupid. They can get swayed by this stuff.
You mean like Barack the past couple days?
It's pretty bad. I like science and fossil records and alternative energy and progress and a healthy economy and don't want to live in a cave. You guys, you're welcome to if you want. But please don't screw up stem cell research and progress for the rest of us, mmmmkay?
I guess people can feel like they've satisfied whatever diversity requirement their pointy heads came up with by choosing either the old conservative with a young female running mate or the liberal black guy with the funny name. That's progressive, right? Either way we get a "first time in American history" moment next January.
What I don't get is just how blatant an attempt this is to attract women voters to the GOP tent. It's not like the McCain camp was scared that Alaska's whopping three electoral votes would go blue for the first time since 1964.
