Keep trying to dig up dirt because you can't win on the issues. "If we can't smear her off the ticket, we might actually have to talk issues. Then what?"

Your candidate is an empty suit. Look at the straw he grasped in his pick of Biden. :lol2:

Actually it's been the McCain camp that's afraid of the issues and constantly just trying to dig up dirt. Obama always brings it back to the issues while McCain tries to keep everyone talking about diversions. You've been right with them too as evidenced by your posts on this board. :laugh:

Just look at you digging for minute miswordings and trying to misconstrue comments. The last thing McCain supporters want is acampaibased on issues.

That actually applies to your candidate and VP pick much more accurately.

as is anyone with a working brain that isn't blinded by their own ideological horseshit and/or their dripping weeners (personally i don;t understand how anyone could find a parrot attractive, but whatever). she's simply not that prepared to make serious decisions. she doesn't know much about the world around her. i'm sure she's great at getting potholes fixed and highway medians mowed. but she sure ain't president when mccain croaks material.

her being on the ticket has precluded any possibility of me voting for mccain. previously, it was a strong consideration, given that obama is just too liberal for me in many respects.

nice job, shitheads!

she'll continue to offer shitty half-answers that make it clear that she's got very few clues, like the recent "bush doctrine" question that she flubbed. (i'm sure if the question had been about first cousin dating, she would have offered brilliant advice.) shit, even i know what the bush doctrine is, and i ain't running for veep.

Most Presidents come from Governorships, not Congress (50 years ago)

she ain't no teddie roosevelt. dude.

i ain't being a snob here. she's just not that smart. and the republican version of feminism here is about as convincing as a britney spears lip sync.

she'd lead this country right into the krapper if mccain kicks it.

if you want to vote on pure ideology, that's fine. would you be cool with voting for someone who lined up with you on every issue but was obviously not playing with a full (enough) deck?

well, guess we'll find out in november, eh?

:lol2:
 
What specifics do you have that say she's incompetent? I've loved watching her (alright, listening) to her eat the press alive. She's a woman who knows her mind & isn't afraid to speak it.

She is the exact model of feminsim...except she ain't liberal.
 
i don't think i said "incompetent" in a generalized sense. again, i'm sure she's great at getting potholes fixed.

she might be what you think feminism should be. and that's fine. just rings hollow to me, given that i'm thoroughly unconvinced that she can think for herself. she just parrots a certain very obvious cluster of ideas that more often than not reside in those with, um, highly constrained world views. she hasn't said anything in contrast with that idea cluster and she always snaps right to it like she's reading off a fucking cue card. polly wanna cracker?

just wait a few weeks for the VP debate. i think it's on a thursday. let's chat after that.
 
McCain believes what he believes & can talk a straight game. No need for notes or prompters. Not much hemming & hawing. I think, from what I've seen, she is in the same boat, exept she's truly a conservative while he's a wishy washy centrist. Gibsons interviews have been strung together & will be an hour long 20/20 tonight at 10. Step one.

The VP debate will be fun...I wonder if Joe will ask any handicapped folks to stand up?
 
I am under 45 years old.
I love the outdoors and hunting.
I am a republican reformer.
I have taken on the republican party establishment.
I have many children.
I have a spot on the national ticket for vice president with less than 2 years in the governor's office.

Who am I?

Rebecca Johnson: 'I am a liberal, but I'm blown away by Sarah Palin'
Rebecca Johnson
Last Updated: 12:01am BST 11/09/2008

As American women are drawn to the Republican vice-presidential candidate, US writer Rebecca Johnson explains her appeal

...

Once upon a time, I also would have been contemptuous of Palin's incurable optimism but, having been knocked around by life a bit, I now understand what a gift chronically happy people are given.

Life hands them difficulties -a Down's syndrome baby, a 17-year-old daughter pregnant before her life as an adult has even begun, a much-needed job on the oil and gas commission that comes with too many strings - and she is not flummoxed or depressed or angry or self-pitying. She endures.

My liberal friends were outraged when rumours about Barack Obama attending a Madrassa or being a Muslim surfaced on the internet, but all week they have been gleefully trading emails of Sarah Palin distortions.

There was the doctored picture of her carrying a rifle, wearing a stars-and-stripes bikini while a man in the background drank Schlitz beer. Or dopey quotes about God, creationism and moose, all of which have been subsequently debunked.

There have also been snide remarks about Wal-Mart and K-Mart, as if there is something shameful about trying to save money. The week before Palin's nomination was announced, people were talking about John McCain's inability to remember precisely how many houses he and his gazillionaire wife own. A few weeks before that, the news was Cindy McCain's $250,000 American Express bill (those lime-green shifts aren't free).

Todd Palin earns an hourly wage at his job on the North Slope oil field; Sarah Palin makes $125,000 a year as governor of Alaska. They're not poor, but Alaska, where most things have to be flown or shipped in, is an expensive state and they have five mouths to feed.

Palin isn't shooting moose for sport; her family eats what she kills. If she shops at Wal-Mart for diapers, the vast majority of American women can relate.

It's no wonder the latest Washington Post poll shows an unprecedented shift of 20 points among white women towards McCain since he announced Palin as his running mate. Times are hard and getting harder.

In a perfect world, people would vote based on issues. Care about a woman's right to choose her own biological destiny? Vote pro-choice. Unfortunately, life is still a lot like high school. We vote for people we like, people who make us feel comfortable and heard.

Having watched folksy George W trounce the patrician Al Gore and John Kerry, you'd think the Democrats would have learned this.

Bullshit, he lies constantly. He'll even admit it.

Actually he uses prompters as often as anyone and hems and haws as well. He did it just this morning when the women on The View called him out on his crap.

It sure will be. I wonder if Palin will screw up something that actually matters like not knowing what the Bush Doctrine is? :laugh:
