Yeah, she was a great White House Press Secretary. She'd lock up with the 'deer in the headlights' look like Cindy Brady on the Quiz Kids show whenever they asked her a question.
It will be Job #1 for the Democrat media to cast doubts in Republicans (especially during the leadup to the convention) about McCain's choice. Regardless of her qualifications, the in my mind the more doubts that the MSM try to spread, the more afraid of this choice they really are.
I thought that, even before this choice, McCain had a strong shot at winning the election. His running mate would be in a strong position to run in 2012. A Palin-Clinton campaign in 2012 would be historic, and if McCain can't finish his term, a first-female President Palin would be even more historic.
The Democrats are frightened by this choice.

“No woman with Obama’s résumé could run,” said Dee Dee Myers, the first woman to be White House press secretary, under Bill Clinton, and the author of “Why Women Should Rule the World.” “No woman could have gotten out of the gate.”
I doubt if Sissy Matthews or Keith Olberfruit will be getting all tingly over her, though. After all, she's a girrrrrrllllll.
Bottom line: Palin’s a brilliant choice.
Yep. More clear thinking from one of Clinton's old alcoholic sluts.
Hell, in a lot of respects, Palin is more qualified than McCain is.
Go easy on Dee Dee. She wrote this in a hurry as they’re starting happy hour at 3 pm today in observance of the Labor Day weekend.

Former White House Press Secretary Dee Dee Myers argues that American women continue to be held to different social and professional standards than men.
I’m a Ron Paulite and McCain despiser and will never, never vote for him. Having said this, the Palin pick is very smart choice. This could seal the election for him.
Go put some ice on that lip Dee Dee.
She is irrelevant.
Is this person really complaining that a VP selection was transparently political?! Has there ever been a VP selection that wasn’t?
If you know anything about Dee Dee Myers, the very first thing you know is “FEMINIST.” She just wrote a book titled “Why Women Should Rule the World.” Now, when a woman could be on the verge of breaking THE highest ‘glass ceiling’ there is, she immediately comes out of the woodwork to bad-mouth that woman. Because she’s a pro-life Republican. Because she’s effective. Because she has five kids. Because she’s beautiful. Because she’s pro-Second Amendment. Because she’s successful. Dee Dee has just exposed herself as a phony. Even worse, she’s committed the only cardinal sin, other than racism, according to the liberals ... HYPOCRISY!
You know Dee Dee could easily make some women look bad
Keep that up Dee Dee... If expectations become too low, just showing up may make her the winner.
McCain shocked the sh*t out of the Dems with his pick and they seem beside themselves when it comes to responding, which makes McCain's pick smarter with every minute that goes by.
They have no ads prepared and they probably wasted a pile of time this past week making Romney/ Pawlenty & Ridge ads.
They have the problem of criticizing a women without sounding misogynistic. I've noticed that the RATS have pushed a lot of children hating feminist on to the airwaves to attack her, which will probably alienate the real women out there.
Their best play so far has been attacking her experience and saying that it now eliminates McCain's charges of Barry O's inexperience... In reality, she has more experience and that will make Barry O look even worse on the top of the RAT ticket.
She has a son who'll soon be fighting in Iraq and another who she just birthed with down syndrome. Making attacks against her even harder.
She and McCain can obviously keep a secret. Barry O's intro of Biden was a complete disaster. McCain and Palin on the other hand, were so secretive that her parents found out watching television.
McCain made the first big executive decision that every president has to make, his VP and his selection tells you that he isn't afraid to shake it up a bit... Obama on the other hand picked somebody who he can call at 3:00 am and ask them where the heck on earth Georgia is?
It says a lot about the two candidates and when it comes down to it, it's really all about Barry and his poor VP judgment and lack of experience. His chances have just gone down the toilet along with good number of Hillary's former supporters.
“some people will conclude that women can’t cut it”
Leave it to dems to once again belittle women. They love us as long as we stay on the plantation.
22 years ago I became an attorney. I am a woman. I heard the “women can’t cut it” mostly from liberal idiots. Since they believed so much in affirmative action, they thought every woman was just another token.
22 years later, women are CEOs of corporations, doctors, partners of law firms, senators, governors, Secretaries of State, and generals in the military. If, by any chance, Gov. Palin falls flat on her face, it hardly reflects on the rest of the women in this country. We each stand or fall on our own abilities. The republican party represents us as individuals and lets us succeed as individuals. Democrats view everyone as groups of minorities who (at least hearing the speech last night) fail without big brother.
Geraldine Ferrarro was absolutely right. The democrats are sexists who disrespect women of accomplishment.
By all means, less have a debate about experience!
Palin would get to learn from John McCain during a first term. The Chosen One would have to learn on the job. Big difference.
