There’s so many things that are so brilliant about McCains pick of Gov Palin that I don’t know where to start.

Every argument the RATS try to come up with will be so counterproductive to them that they get exponentially more confused, petty, and deeper in trouble as all attempts to smear and belittle Palin will backfire.

For instance, your quote about Palin being mayor of a SMALL town of only 9000 people. An attempt to diminish her EXPERIENCE as MAYOR of an insignificant small town in remote Alaska.

Retort; America IS small towns. America has more small towns than big cities. (check)

I keep it short, but you get the point. In the end it’s checkmate for Odumbo.

I had to look at who posted this because my husband has been saying this all day.

When he was growing up in Dover, DE the population was about 8,500. Joe Biden, of all people, should be reminding the "one" of the truth of your statement.

The largest town in the county where we now live has a year round population of about 4,500. In the summer it swells to about 10,000 because it is a beach town. The "city" of Dover, DE has a population of about 45,000, which is more than the population of all of Accomack County, VA just 100 miles south, which is where we now live.

McCain just made a move where the Obama camp is finding all of their pieces to be in the wrong places. They are not sleeping well tonight.

What they also forget is that what she learnt in that small town, she put to use managing the largest state — Alaska. Her record shows her steadily moving up, gaining experience along the way. That jab about being a former mayor of a small town is actually a compliment as it show growing experience and steady improvement and increasingly taking on responsibility. That should actually be part of her campaign, showing grass-roots and state level ability. In contrast what do we have with O-boy?

I saw where the Obama campaign was slamming Palin for her small town origins. Yet just a week ago, they were touting Biden as “the regular guy from Scranton” who can connect with the common man. Hypocrites to the nth degree!

Where is it more difficult to hold public office? In a small town where you shop, attend sporting events and work around the people you are accountable to, or from a distance like being a senator that no one really ever sees?
