Dick Cheney is a national treasure. Don’t agree with him on this, but he is still in the tops in my book.
well played
Is his support of homosexual marriage above criticism too?

Why does Cheney fail to name specific presidential duties that are beyond Palin’s abilities?
Because there are no specific functions of the Oval Office that Palin couldn’t perform. This is exemplified by her documented accomplishments as Governor.

I believe the real tragedy concerning the Palin pick, shouldn’t be so focused on Palin herself.
The real scandal was that McCain himself was so repulsive to the party as a whole, that he had to do the outlandish and nominate some unknown that the public would see as a Conservative and counter-balance his Leftist leaning stupidity.
McCain had to find a person that was not well known, because he didn’t want them to have enough chops to be able to force his actions after being elected. He planned to pick her, get elected, and ignore her.
As others have stated, without her he would have been destroyed at the polls. As it was, the vote didn’t go into the realm of ‘embarrassing’.
I have said it a number of times on this forum. You do join a team to moderate it from full on Leftist. You do not back a full blown Leftist for return to office.
Palin did this. Her endorsement of him to return to Washington, D. C. was a full-on Leftist enabling act.
Conservatives don’t enable Leftists.
Palin’s endorsements today may mean something to some people. They mean nothing to me. If you can endorse McCain for office knowing what there is to know, how in the Sam Hell is it a reliable endorsement when you endorse others.
Her endorsements are worthless. Unless you know the candidate’s history yourself, I’d advise people to dismiss her endorsements.
If only they would have in Arizona...
Palin today loves to play the role of Conservative spokesperson. She destroyed that ability in my eyes, when she decided to back the worst Republican I’ve ever been aware of.
Thanks but no thanks Sarah. Cheney was right. I still don’t know what other choice McCain had at the time. Known visible Conservatives would not have been as malleable as Sarah turned out to be.
Was she ready to be president? No.
Instead he could have said the same thing about Obama, but no, he had to insult Palin. And I am NOT going to take it back. It was a stupid think for him to say. What a jerk! What a disappointment!
