Oh, please. This is just another so-called conservative trying to make a name for herself by trashing her own. My vomit reflex is exhausted.

Despite the FR name, I’m pretty moderate and yet I love that Palin is on the ticket. Who is this Canadian journalist anyway? Who cares what she says.

McCain/PALIN ‘08

Palin as compared to the stumbling bumbling Joe Biden? Joe Biden who has supposedly commanded these issues for 30 years.... LOL Biden who doesn’t even know who the President was during the Great Depression or when Television actually rolled out to the Mainstream who he fails to properly portray himself as one of. The same Biden who tell Wheelchair bound Officials to stand up and be recognized. LOL the only one out of their league is Barak Hussein Obama and Joe Gaffe prone Biden.

Either that or America has collectively lost its mind.

A conservative columnist who welcomed Sarah Palin's entry in national politics says she's proven to be a dud and should step aside as Republican presidential candidate John McCain's running mate.

Really?

I do, FR does not seem to be zapping them this year.

I recognize many with different agendas, there are the usual Kos Kids who joined long ago to disrupt, the newbie troll, then there are those who want a Hussein victory because they envision a Hollywood ending of Conservatism rising from the ashes, also some Ron Paul supporters who hate the Pres because of the war, and want McCain to go down too, 3rd party voters who are principling their way to a Hussein victory.

Many, many, agendas, besides saving our Republic from this anti-American freak, who will install his spies into government, have access to our national security, our treasury, and will be able to install traitors into our military. It is unthinkable.

To Kathleen,

I noticed that you based your opinion that Sarah Palin should resign solely on the Gibson and Couric interviews. As has been documented on the Net, both interviews were deceptively edited. I know that in the MSM, Washington Post circles that you hang out in, such practices are common place. I would suggest to you, if you wish to be objective, that you should reconsider such a poorly informed opinion.

Politically ingenious move by McCain.

Vice President does not matter, Quayle was a laughingstock against Bentsen and it did not help Dukakis. People vote the top of the ticket, period. Palin is the exception that will get more votes and money than she will lose.

I like her judgment over Biden and Obummer. She is a maverick with values, the rest is study time. Screw these media quizzes, with gotcha questions like name all McCain’s legislative record. Google it Couric - ask a real question next time. This is a set-up, laughably transparent and voters are not buying the media hysteria.

People are expecting her to fail, so what. Biden is flippant only because he flip flops a lot. He was against the first Gulf war, when the whole world was with us, and then came out for the second after he read the polls. That guy is the biggest fraud, and not even close to being the intellectual he is purported to be. Too much talking head lippage is spent on these word games and not enough on their backgrounds, their moral philosophy, their own views and values. With that she will beat the panderer and the socialist.

We need term limits anyway. I want the old bums out and bring in new blood, every 8 years, every politician has to go home. Stop the corruption.

I wrote Kathleen and apologized for not knowing anything about her although the old girl’s been around for quite awhile. She’s finally gotten her fifteen minutes of fame. Now it’s time to shut your piehole, Kathleen!

FR does not seem to be zapping them this year.

I saw a couple of 2002 sign ups zapped about a week ago, nothing much since then.

I also think this was the KOS kids chance to come here and bash President Bush.  I've been watching a few that no matter what the topic they throw in a jab at GWB.  They are so obvious :) Their hatred for all things "R" is what drives them.

I havn’t seen anyone mention this example of media bias- why is 2 mins after the debate Joe Biden was somehow on most of the major networks/cable news channels, playing cheerleader to O and pushing his agenda even more- but Gov Palin was nowhere to be seen? It was a COMPLETE lock out, she may as well not existed, they are determined to ONLY give her awkward 1/1 interview coverage, nothing else. Has she even ever been INVITED to sit on a news panel?? Aren’t there laws about this (equal time)??

Not to worry, the debates will be live. Governor Palin will shine.

What a fool. Fools like this imagine:

1. The Dims won’t savage the next GOP VP pick.

2. The Dims won’t savage McCain for the Palin decision.

3. Bush is somehow a bad speaker, because he er, um, uh, stumbles a bit not unlike a certain Dim nominee they are told and presumably believe is great speaker.

4. McCain can draw a crowd without Palin.

It is just amazing how stupid so called conservative commentators are. They allowed the War on Terror to fall in the opinion polls because they believed what their Dim neighbors in DC and NYC told them. Now they are again falling for a similar ploy with the Palin selection.

Can we please term limit DC and NYC conservative commentators before they embarrass themselves like this.
