Yep, I’d go with the general too, but the election will hinge on the economy no matter how important the war is. Barbour is good but male and McCain needed a hail mary pick.
That’s what my husband is saying. I haven’t talked to a lot of my friends about this. I live in California, so it’s useless talking politics here.
Anyway, the few I’ve talked to, the women are like me and trying to figure out the motivation of McCain (and Palin), and the men really like Palin. Maybe the men have more confidense in the Palin’s husband to take care of the children.
This is also the only thread I’m going to say anything negative about the whole thing. I’m not thrilled with the situation, but I know complaining about it only gives the other side ammo. I also don’t think it’s a good idea for her to drop out at this point. The damage is done. (I just would not have put my daughter in the media like that if she were 17 and pregnant.)
