One thing I didn't even mention was the absolute show that started around 6:30 this morning when the McCain campaign started playing games with the news media by purposely misleading and leaking false information just to undercut next-day coverage on the final night of the DNC.. Especially funny if anyone was watching MSNBC - They were answering phone calls from sources on air, going back and forth on their BlackBerries, it was nothing short of hilarious - At some points, Mikka Brzensky (the co-host) was actually getting aggravated, made for some funny live TV.
PS Wow, she *is* really attractive, isn't she? |

Add Bill O'Reilly, Nancy Grace, Rush Limbaugh & Sean Hannity to that list for me.
And replace "against a table" with "with a large hammer".
stealth edit, lol |

apparently mccain has only met her in person twice, but said "anybody that hunts moose at 3 in the morning is high on my list"...
sadly i think in 1 year's time there will be a long list of such amazing judgment calls... i'm sure the writers for the daily show/colbert report are relieved the scripts will practically write themselves until at least 2012 if mccain gets elected |

Truer words cannot be spoken. I spent grades 5-12 going to a school in North Carolina and we were not taught about the world around us.....
Thank god for worldly parents!
If enough people wrote Hillary Clinton's name on the ballot they technically have to count it.....despite her not being the official candidate. Same goes for a Republican candidate that is better than McCain.
Then again with these delegates and electoral college the people never actually get to elect anyways. |

Anyone who suggests that this is a good move is as misguided as research rat. This move is as chess-like by its overt action. When this candidate comes to blows and begins to unveil her positions it will be clear that every single republican effort to define her as a representative of conservative values will by each layering of those policies and values desexualize her day to day, until, like Hillary she becomes this quasi women who seeks to ultra masculinize her public face. Which did not work on the democrat side for Hillary.
From where I sit it seems like this is Mccains trump card; and it was the last one. The tired and lax approach to the mediocre, mundane and status quo mentality that Mccain has, only now makes me wonder if their camp has thrown in the towel.
Even Rush Limbaugh can see this for what it is; and he has made a public statement to voice his embarrassment with this.
Stately Figures.
If we all agree that both presidential candidates bring their pros and cons; then a discussion comes down to a series of questions of the VP's
Who do I want running the country should the president fall ill or worse?
who will bring the proven substantial foundation to tough decisions?
who has the most amount of relevant experience?
and frankly who will win the debates?
the decidedly unbalanced favor is logically in Bidens court. Palin will pale in comparison to Biden's stately demeanor, his confidence and far more importantly - his experience.
I am a hockey mom.
Hockey moms and Cub Scout fathers dont run for the highest office, they run from the highest office. And by poorly defining herself as something other than what she really is; a card carrying conservative of the Pat Buchanan vein she will only attract dissolusioned conservativish female (only) voters who sought that little nudge to vote in a comfortable fashion for the old fashion. And that is fine, and will always be the case - unless of course these same women are mothers whose children are fighting in an illegal war; one which the republicans wish to perpetuate.
Change.
Obama does indeed preach an awful lot about the concept of a fresh start, a new face of politics and the possiblity of a resurgence in all things american. But whether it is going to work well or not, it is still exactly what all of america wants. Even if you are republican you know that you want a safe enough distance from bush as possible, without stretching too far the comfortable mold.
Mccain is that.
Palin is not.
Obama is not.
Biden is.
So we are in a dead heat. However the supremacy of Obamas public image, his lock on the largest percentage of the legal voting pool and the concentrated package that is, Binden gives Obama the nod.
Mccains first decision in an office he doesnt have yet is a bad choice. America doesnt vote for the VP the Presidential candidate does and he missed the mark.
Obama made the smart move. One of many to come. |
