    I'm sure she could read speeches other people wrote off the teleprompter just as good as Obama does.
    And so, also, I'm not sure about that too. Additionally, it's likely maybe that she also could not read as well, perhaps, but there's a chance too that she might.

    That would be a plus. At least she wouldn't need to battle herself to try to put two sentences together.

    Sounds like similar criticism that was heaped on a man that went to Eureka College.
    I'm just going by what I see. Just because there are exceptions to guidelines doesn't mean we throw those guidelines out.

    Actually, when she spoke at the RNC, she had liberal journalists scared less.
    Because I think the idea of countering the racist angle with a woman was actually golden. The execution was terrible though.

    This isn't an exercise in comparing and contrasting. Biden sucks as a human as well. Bottom line though, Biden didn't contribute to a loss for dems like this dumb did for repubs.

    LOL @ strawmen

    Does Biden's potential inadequacy to be President absolve all others DarrinS?

    I'm far from defending Joe. That said, humans can understand every sentence of whatever bull he's saying at any given moment.

    Like I said, I prefer Palin to stay 'rogue' for the comedy factor alone.

    Well sure, some important decisions should be made spur-of-the-moment... natural disasters, emergency actions, etc etc.

    More importantly though, I really doubt her ability to speak without making a blunder to foreign dignitaries. The President is a symbol of power throughout the world, and I think it would demean the post to have someone who seems unable to think quickly and respond intelligently.

    If all we needed as a President was someone who listened to others, then made a decision, I would think many more would be capable of the job. As it is, we need more than a "decider".
    So you agree then that our last two presidents fail on those points, right?

    Can she do worse?

    I'll admit, as much as I disliked president Clinton's ideals, he was good there.

    No kidding.

    I know that many conservatives are leery of Palin. I just ask that those of you who are, consider my words about delegating authority, and placing experts around her. At least she has executive experience, and is a tried leader.

    Oboma is neither.

    No, seriously, comparing Biden and Palin is like comparing the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Richards High School Ladybugs.

    ...Assuming the latter is junior varsity.

    Do you really think McCain would have had a chance in without her?

    I say no. He would have lost real bad. She helped him, not hurt him. I would have voted for Mickey Mouse if he hadn't picked her for VP, and others would have either not voted, or spoiled their votes as well.

    Conservatives do not like RINO's, and McCain is a big RINO.

    Bush wasn't horrible; he just had a habit of using the wrong words and looking squinty. Obama can speak well at times off the cuff, but he's too verbose. Other times he comes off sounding artificial.

    The main reason I voted Obama in was due to not liking McCain/Palin and the fact that he said all the right things regarding civil liberties. He's proven me wrong on the second one, but I still feel McCain/Palin would have done a worse job.

    She's a quitter too. It didn't occur to you to cherry pick that attribute when making that list?

    I know McCain would have been a bad president. he would have been so bipartisan, he would have given the democrats everything they wanted. I just like the position it would put Palin is, and a more probabl;e candidate for president.

    If you recall during our 2008 election debates, I acknowledges that both would be bad presidents, but that I didn't mind Obama winning because then the public would see just how scary the democrat agenda is. I was right. Now there is a powerhouse of a tea party movement. If McCain had won, our nation would have had a slower death, but death just the same. Like the saying about putting a frog in cool water and heating it vs. boiling water.

    Good grief, man! McCain has had repeated cancers, has lots of ailments from his POW days, and would have been older than Reagan was when he took office if he won ( and Reagan had altheimer's while he was in office), and Palin would be right behind that! If you don't think she was a liability to McCain, you are ever so wrong. Independents won the presidency for Obama, and independents voted against Palin.

    Biden is a gaffe machine, but he is well-educated with lots of years of experience in government. Palin is an embarassment every time she opens her mouth...Bush was the same way...and people were tired of it.

    And Obama is young and healthy.

    Come on now. I know you're smarter than that, to buy into that propaganda.

    Are you so closed minded to acknowledge that her reason just might be legitimate?

    That's OK. Stay rigid on that point, and expose your bias.
