“Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency”
Look how carefully they chose their words. Let’s not mention the fact that she is a governor. No, her most important credit is that she was mayor.
I make a habit of studying politicos reactions and nervous ticks, and when Sarah Pallin was speaking in MN today, with McCain at her right side a couple of things stood out:
1. When Sarah is angry about something, the finger point comes out...I’ve seen that finger point before...it means you are in deep do-do.
2. The only time I’ve ever seen McCain have the nervous ticks that he has show up was during the commercial with his mom, she was talking about the bottles of whiskey that ended up on the table...and McCain could only smile and nod his head, the Lady was taking over the show, McCain had enough sense to keep his lips zipped...
John McCain respects Pallin tremendously, I like that, he even pulled out the wedding ban twist....Pallin reminds McCain of his wife...
I hope Gov. Palin doesn’t waste any time getting out there and campaigning HARD. She has precious little time to introduce herself to voters. If she wants to win, and I think she does, she will have to earn it. She will be savaged by the far left as well as the MSM but if she can stay on message and ignore the kooks, MAYBE just maybe she and Sen. McCain will make history.
You bet it will. I have to hand it to McCain. I was very dubious about his candidacy. But whatever political differences I may have with the guy, he has chosen an excellent running mate. You just have to respect that kind of political savvy.
Palin will appeal to conservatives, both social an fiscal. She will appeal to many working women. And she puts a young, vibrant face on the Republican party. And we may actually get a sane energy policy as well if these two are elected. Bravo, Senator McCain.

:-) The more the Obama people try to press this point, the more it will hurt them.

Fianlly, an intelligent woman that has the guts to take care
of corrupt Alaskan issues. There were a lot. I lived there for 8 years I know. We need someone like her 2nd in command in our country. What a wise choice from McCain. He will be a great leader of our country and with Palin as VP. we cannot go wrong. She does not back down from what she believes and does not say what everyone wants to hear. She tells it like it is and doesn’t care if it offends anyone. What a woman. Proud to be living in the state she was raised in. Proud to be an American. She definitely knows the problems of our country and will take care of them. No need to worry with her in office. Have faith and you will see.
Not quite right. After her two terms as mayor of Wasilla she ran for Lt Gov in 2002, but lost. She beat the winner of the 2002 gubernatorial race, Frank Murkowski, during the 2006 primary election and beat former governor Tony Knowles in the general election.
And just yesterday the Democratic party put a corrupt former "community organizer" with zero foreign policy experience and zero executive experience and zero business experience....."
Sounds like the O camp thinks McCain just won the election.
