Been a lot of talk lately about who would make the best Vice President to serve with President Sarah Palin.
Vice Presidential candidates are chosen for a number of reasons. Often they are chosen merely because they can deliver a state or a region that can help the presidential candidate win. There are better reasons though.
We fully expect Sarah Palin to have a 50 state strategy for victory and while someone from certain regions may be helpful more than others, we’d like to see a different criteria.
Anyone who knows Governor Palin’s record knows she and her team hit the ground running the day she was sworn in as Governor of Alaska, and worked 16 hour days tackling Alaska’s problems. We think President Sarah Palin will be looking for someone with strong leadership skills of their own. Someone she can give a portfolio of their own to and help her Revive, Renew, and Restore America.
That said, we have had some requests to do a poll on the question of who should be President Palin’s VP.
Below are some potential candidates for the job. We’ll let our readers decide if they fit the criteria THEY would like to see the Vice President have, as well as if the ones listed have the “right stuff,” as mentioned above.
If you chose “Other” please leave a comment letting us know who, and why you think they are the one.
The poll will close next Wednesday. We look forward to seeing the results.

I responded to one of your points.
After that you seemed to get confused.
“I responded to one of your points.

No, you are confused! I posted what the guy voted on,Maybe the issues do not bother you,also I voted for him,but not again!
Punctuation is your friend.
I explained the one action. That was all I intended to do.
Yet somehow an idiot like you is still here sniffing around anything to do with Sarah Palin.
ROTFLOL
Am I mistaken or is Rubio not eligible for POTUS? His parents were not US citizens; they were Cuban refugees when he was born. He is in the same boat as Obama.
Cut the bull. You are lecturing. Most pretend Republicans do.
The majority of the party needs to be condemned and sent home. They are doing this country no favors. and it’s the real view of the party.
I really must say you are in no way educating me. What you are doing is chastising because I don’t agree with you and that sounds like a fake Republican or should I say RINO.
“Punctuation is your friend.

No,you explained Nothing,Nothing a quote from the Godfather, LMAO ! You lose for that cheap shot BTW,but in your little world reality is a scary thing,Like I said he will go home after this term! Learn the Issues we have with this guy or wake up ,whatever.
Yeah, I’ve always liked the circus and this circle-jerk of a thread is a pretty good one.
McDonell did her like CRAP the last election. She won’t pick him, trust me.
VERY WELL ARTICULATED!
I doubt your issues will amount to a hill of beans in ‘12 or that he will lose the primary.
Punctuation is STILL your friend. Try it. There should be spaces between your clauses and sentences.
The quote from the Godfather explained his action perfectly even if you didn’t grasp it.
Ah, another member of the circle-jerk heard from....
Senator Marco Rubio FL 21.45% (77 votes)
So seven out of ten readers of this blog want a first term legislator one heart beat away from the most powerful executive position in world. Welcome to the deep thinking, intellectual, conservative version of Dancing with the Stars. Don't get me wrong, I like both of them in their current roles but they are no where near ready for the presidency. At least West has some type of executive experience, though the military is vastly different than representative government. Rubio went straight from law school to politics.
NO wrong ACE, You explained EXACTLY NOTHING,What about the Pigford vote?? DO You know about that or chose to dance around stupidly?
Then the NAY on Omama care Defunding! You with me so far?? No Movie quotes????????
OK NOW the 2.4 Trillion for The Pinko Clown in the Oval office that West voted for!! Give me some reasons, For this backstabbing! NOW The Tea party is steaming (heard of them right)He blew it!
No movie quotes?????
I’ve been saying for the past few months that when Sarah announces that she’s running that she’ll also announce who her VP running mate will be, which would be consistent with her many statements about running an unconventional campaign. I feel it will be Perry and so far there isn’t anything to convince me I am wrong. If this does happen it will be another great blindside by Sarah. And Perry for that matter.
DO not post me again ,until you get up to speed on the issues.
Throw in the 5% for Bachmann and complete the triple. Unfortunately , it’s not just readers of the blog where the poll is posted.
I see Scott Walker is in fourth place though so there is some hope.
