I hate to paraphrase Rumsfeld. We don't have the dream ticket we'd like, but we go to battle the evil demoncrat scourge with the ticket we've got.

It ain't perfect. Those conservatives we'd probably like to see in public office wouldn't dream of doing so. We know them. We've seen them throughout our lives, working hard at their businesses, volunteering in their communities, raising their families. Living lives of decency, honor and duty. The unsung folks that live everywhere in this country.

I've heard Palin didn't get into politics by conscious decision. But, it happened. Perhaps Palin is one of those unsung and unknown who just happened to be given the opportunity by Providence to become a leader. Who knows.

So far, I like what I've heard. I'd like to hear more and see what this ticket will become. I have a faith in the future and the events that can transform our current situation.

Unlike Savage, I'm not going to react without seeing what effect this combination can have on this election cycle.

How many wives and mothers of 5 do you see running for political office? It's just not in their DNA to do that. Why is this Palin willing to juggle her domestic duties while at the same time running for political office, women just don't do that so something is not right to me about that.

I'm not happy about the choice either but it is what it is, our enemies are men, I'm not for sending the wives and mothers of our country to lead us in the fight against them when we have qualified men available to do that job.

Women and men ARE different, they think different, they reason different, they are more pacifist in nature, I want men in power who are willing and not afraid to go to war when necessary.
