Can’t agree. Biden would eat Palin or Pawlenty alive in the VP debate. She’s good, but unprepared for the demands of the national stage.

Romney is telegenic, will stand up to Biden, and get Joe to lose his temper.

McCain is ahead in the polls. A hypothetical McCain-Romney ticket is way behind.

I doubt if Biden would eat anyone alive, but Palin did not seem very impressive in an August 1 interview with Larry Kudlow on NRO. Someone really articulate, logical, and knowledgeable as McCain’s veep nominee would help point up the Dem team’s lack of depth.

Bullfeces. This woman has battled crooked pols in both parties for 16 years. She'd lay the smackdown in Washington.

McCain needs to choose Palin - NOW

My saintly grandmother could eat him alive by staying calm and asking him questions so he opens his mouth.

I too hold Palin in high regard, but I totally agree about Romney.

Since Obama decided to go with a "heavyweight" (By Dem standards) McCain has to counter with a VP pick who has comparable gravitas and that means Mitt Romney.

NOT Palin. She's quick, with plenty of intellectual breadth and depth. And if he tried to get rough, he'd pay dearly in style points. People don't like when old men beat up on women, especially pretty young ones with Sarah's smiling charm. Some people dream of a white Christmas -- I've been dreaming of Sarah Palin as VP. She is not your standard, run-of-the-mill VP candidate; but this is not your standard campaign year. This is a year for some of the most unusual outcomes any of us ever dreamed of. In that regard, a Palin pick would fit right in and give a breath of fresh air and excitement to the whole mix.

Don’t fool yourself, she is a much better speaker and more sure of herself than McCain.

All you have to do is hear her speak.

I think Thompson could chew up Biden and spit him out. But he didn’t make it.

How About BECKY SKILLMAN, Lt. Gov Of Indiana? She's considered one of the best administrators in the Country, is a serious Policy Wonk, and doesn't look bad on TV, either!
