SCRANTON, Pa. -- Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin said Tuesday that her running mate John McCain's plan to reduce or eliminate taxes and help distressed homeowners with their mortgages will "get this economy moving again."

At a raucous rally in Scranton, Palin said McCain's mortgage proposal is "not a handout, but a hand up" to help financially overwhelmed Americans hang on to their homes.

"This is going to get our country through a time of testing, and it's going to get the economy back on the right track," Palin said. "Under this plan, we'll help American families keep their homes and save failing neighborhoods, and bring stability to our housing market."

This was McCain's nutty plan to buyout individual mortgages. ROFL. A hand up? More like a finger up.

There is an old saying: “A hand out is something you get from the government. A hand up is something you get for a friend”. This was clearly a hand out. When will politicians quit mouthing mindless platitudes and learn the difference.

It’s McCain’s plan not hers and each VP candidate for the most part must accept the platform of the Presidential candidate....even Dick Cheney said that he must accept Bush’s anti-gay marriage issue although he accepted gay marriage for his daughters sake who is a lesbians........Bush Sr never believed in Reagan’s “voodoo economics” when he ran against him in 1980 but when he became his Vice President candidate he accepted his economic model.

Did Palin support the bailout? I’ve read people saying that, but I don’t know for sure.

This is distinct from the $800B TARP bailout. But she supported both. Fortunately, this one never saw life.

Don't confuse one of the two members of the Falcon Party with logic.

It might make him weep uncontrollably, or go even further insane than he is..........

Is that possible?

This can’t be right. Sarah has no flaws. She is perfect in all things. Not since Christ walked the earth has mankind seen such perfection. She would never say anything for political expediency. LIES...LIES I TELL YA!

A VP candidate often has to bite his/her tongue and go along with the top of the ticket.

I swear you spend every waking hour looking ways to trash Sarah Palin even if you have to go back 2+ years. You truly are obsessed with this woman.

I'm not sure whether you're a closet RINO or just a crazy old coot.

....”each VP candidate for the most part must accept the platform of the Presidential candidate.”

I don’t know which explanation is worse....that she couldn’t say no, that she didn’t have a choice, or, that she faked agreement to win the election.

No one could ‘trash’ her better than herself when she speaks McCainese.
