(CNN) – A leading House Democrat said Thursday John McCain's choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is a "risky" move that could ultimately prove disastrous to the Republican prospects in November.

Meanwhile, a top Senate Democrat said the pick is a "Hail Mary pass" and a "roll of the dice," in what is the initial reactions from McCain's rival party.

Recent polls show Americans are more conservative than TV pundits think they are. Palin will bring in those people, women and those that see Obama as an arrogant, empty suit. Polls show Obama tanking. Women who would’ve voted for Hillary will vote for McCain because of Palin. And Sarah Barrucuda earned her nicknmae name. Also, Palin wants to drill. That’s what Americans want.

Gov. Palin will have to go out and let people get to know who she is and what she stands for and if she connects with voters, Obomba will go down in flames. I've heard her speak and she OBVIOUSLY can handle the job!

McCain’s pick was well thought out. His pick has many positives.

I like Gov. Palin but I'm just one vote. She will have to let folks know who she is and what she stands for and I think she will gain their acceptance.

If the Dems feel so, why did they all have to change their undies about noon today? (Adult diapers in some cases).

PALIN, NOT OBAMA.

Let's put a *REAL* P***y in the White House!

Cheers!

To celebrate the choice of Sarah Palin, let's all give a big "Happy Headed NO" to Barack Obama (aplogies to Howard Stern).

Cheers!

We are arguing for no reason. We both are conservative, but I am not as socially conservative as you. We both want the USA to have a smaller government and let us have more $$$, but socially, we are different. (I am voting for McCain because the other realistic choice (and no matter what, a 3rd party won't ever win.) is a MARXIST, and conservative should be for the MARXIST!).

I'm a naturist (nudist) and so are my family. We are against ABORTION, and I am against gay marriage, thou they should be able to have tax breaks like married people do - and ADOPT older kids.
