i can't believe the comments being made about governor palin..she is definately a tool of mccain, bein gused to garnish women voter, and pander to the conservative side of the right wing of the republican party....i don't have any problem with her being on the ticket, and once all her comments and claimed positions are investifated, they will find out to be ouright lies, with the new misdirection of the republican party to say the the democarts are picking on her in a sexist way....poor thing..didn't she compare herself to a pitbull, and say she can stand the heat..after bing in the fray of the media blitz, of which she has basically had no meetings, until this week, and been prepared and briefed as to what to say and how to say it, we will have to see how this bleep on the radar screen (a great move by the boring mccain camp) pans. out.. the botton line, is still mccain versus obama....change, versus the man who agreed with bush over 90% of the time he had the chance, and if you want another term of george bush , vote for mccain.

"What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?”
“One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.
“The other kills her own food.”

Sarah Palin can relate to America and America can relate to her! Many of us have daughters in the same condition, a family member that's 'disabled/slow/etc'. She will make a good president when Mccain drops over or some minority takes him out because they didn't win the election. I have cousins in Alaska and it is a great but largely unknonw state to the rest of America.

I didn't know Sarah Palin until just a few days ago. I do know a few people who live in Alaska that speek very highley of her. I also knew very little about how important the Alaska border is to the U.S.. Apparentley this lady can keep very important information under her hat, and keep cool at the same time. In my book, John McCain has paid the price, and has already proven his devotion to this Country. I can't think of any better running mate then Sara Palin. You have my vote!!!

GET A LIFE!! GET OFF YOUR DOUBLE STANDARD. JOHN EDWARDS COMMITS ADULTERY AND GETS $10,000 MORE PER SPEECH. SARAH PALIN OBEYS THE LAWS OF GOD AND HER CONSCIOUS AND IS SEVERELY CRITICIZED!! GOD HELP YOU !! YOU ARE SO ABSOLUTELY CLUELESS ABOUT WHAT REALLY MAKES THIS COUNTRY GREAT AND WHAT MAKES IT WORK IT IS JUST PATHETIC !!!!
PLEASE TELL ME WHO "HIS HIGHNESS" IS GOING TO TURN TO FOR ANSWERS WHEN MATTERS "ABOVE HIS PAY GRADE" COME UP IN THE COURSE OF RUNNING THIS GREAT NATION. GOOD GRIEF CHARLIE BROWN..WHAT A MOST RIDICULOUS ANSWER FOR ANY COMMANDER IN CHIEF TO EVER UTTER!!
DO YOU KNOW WHY SOCIAL SECURITY IS FAILING..BECAUSE ALL YOU ABORTIONISTS ARE KILLING ALL THE NEW YOUNG AMERICANS (30 MILLION OF THEM IN THE PAST TWENTY YEARS !)THAT ARE SUPPOSE TO GROW UP AND AN GET A JOB AND PAY INTO THE SYSTEM. AND PLEASE!! PLEASE !!! CALL A REPUBLICAN OR YOUR SENATOR AND ASK THEM TO EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT PRIVATIZING SOCIAL SECURITY REALLY MEANS!! I HEARD A FOCUS GROUP OF DEMOCRATS SAY THAT THEY DID NOT WANT TO LET SOMEONE RUIN HIS CHANCES OF GETTING ANY THING FROM SS IF THE OTHER GUYS INVESTMENTS FAIL!! THAT IS THE DUMBEST RESPONSE AND SHOWS SO MUCH TOTAL IGNORANCE OF WHAT PRIVATIZATION MEANS AS TO BE TOTALLY LAUGHABLE!!
GO BACK TO 1935 (THE YEAR I WAS BORN) AND READ THE PURPOSE OF SOCIAL SECURITY AND WHY IT WAS CREATED.
IT WAS N E V E R...NEVER SUPPOSE TO BE ANYBODIES TOTAL RETIREMENT PACKAGE!!!!!! SO ALL YOU LAZY DO NOTHING BUT COMPLAIN DEMOCRATS QUIT HOLLERING FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO GIVE YOU MORE AND TURN THIS GREAT NATION INTO A SOCIALIST NATION THAT IS DOOMED TO FAIL. AND GO GET A JOB AND WORK YOUR FINGERS TO THE BONE AND DO EVERYTHING FOR YOURSELF. IF YOU DONT MAKE ENOUGH TO SAVE FOR RETIREMENT. GET A BETTER JOB..OR A SECOND OR THIRD JOB. AND DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT THE MINIMUM WAGE THAT IS NOT A LIFE TIME JOB. IT IS A STARTER JOB. IF YOU CANNOT GET A BETTER JOB IN ONE YEAR YOU ARE NOT WORKING HARD ENOUGH OR DO NOT HAVE THE EDUCATION ...GO TO NIGHT SCHOOL AND GET EDUCATED AND MAKE ROOM FOR A YOUNGER PERSON TO HAVE YOUR MINIMUM WAGE JOB. THAT IS THE WAY THE SYSTEM WORKS. WHEN YOU RAISE THE MINIMUM WAGE YOU RAISE THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS AND ULTIMATELY THE COST OF EVERY THING WE ALL BUY. IT IS NOT THIS GOVERNMENTS FUNCTION TO TAKE CARE OF YOU. ONLY PROVIDE YOU A SAFE COUNTRY TO LIVE IN .,.WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH HAS DONE FOR YOU AND THIS ENTIRE NATION FOR THE PAST 7.875 YEARS!!!!! DEMOCRATS YOU SLEPT THROUGH ALL YOUR CLASSES AND NOW YOU ARE SLEEPING THROUGH YOUR LIFE AND WANTING SOME ONE ELSE TO PAY YOUR WAY..FEED YOU FREE MEDICAL CARE. SOCIALISM DOES NOT WORK. ASK ANY RUSSIAN, CANADIAN OR BRIT. GET A LIFE..AND PAY FOR IT YOURSELF!!

"Sarah Palin is so ambitious that she is willing to put her 17 year old pregnant daughter in the national spotlight. That is wrong. This women needs to be with her family at this juncture of her life."
So, John Edwards should have never run for Prez? His wife was/is a terminal cancer patient. What an arrogant guy he uhh.. was!!!
How about JFK, with little John-John running all over the oval office? Why, that selfish ba**ard should have stayed up in Hyannisport. He had kids to raise! Being a 'progressive', I'm sure that you are aware that women are supposed to have equal rights with men, such as the two I mentioned.
Right?
You 'progressives' sure know how to jump up into that teenager's womb and her family's private business. And you're downright nasty about it.
FWIW, the -world- is watching your antics.
Something's changed Matt. While you were hating on Bush (and America) for 8 years, lots of people began getting their news from the internet. Along the way, they learned the TRUE nature of the 'reality-based progressive community'. For many of them it was a real shocker.
Do you REALLY want another 20 years or so of Republican dominance, Matt? If you do, simply keep on keeping on. Go Matt!
You can't run from the ugly way you and yours have acted, over and over again, Matt, because the Internet never forgets .. or forgives.
Go back to sleep.

It is nice to have a real person in the race instead of a bunch of lifetime Beltway Boys. Obama left is shaking in their boots. How do you attack someone who represents the majority of the country? Better not bash her too hard. Women at 54% of the vote and I dare to venture a guess that a great deal of Democratic women have either been directly or indirectly affected by a unplanned pregnancy. I know the Democratic presidential candidate was born to an unwed teenager...
People is glass houses should bash women.

Sarah Palin is so ambitious that she is willing to put her 17 year old pregnant daughter in the national spotlight. That is wrong. This women needs to be with her family at this juncture of her life. She has an infant with Down Syndrome, a son going to Iraq (hopefully he will be the one to find Bin Laden) and a out of wedlock pregnant daughter who is planning a shot gun wedding. The good thing is that Sarah, as a card carrying NRA member will be able to hold the shot gun at the wedding.
All kidding aside, Palin is bright, but should have declined the offer due to the serious family issues she is facing. At least then she would have earned the respect of the entire nation.

THATS WHAT THIS COUNTY NEEDS. HA,HA!! VOTE HIGHER TAXES, GAS PRICES AND MURDERING BABIES WITH PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTIONS. THATS EXACTLY WHAT THE USA NEEDS. BLAME THE DEMOCRATS FOR HIGH FOOD AND GAS PRICES. THEY DONT WANT TO DRILL FOR OIL IN OUR OWN COUNTRY. For some reason people beleive that democrats are for poor people. Your wrong. Do you remember paying higher taxes when clinton was in office???? I sure do. I was only makeing 20,000 a year and single and I owed taxes when Clinton was president. Thats pathedic. As fair as the war goes. I feel much safer in this county today then ever. Please think about everthing I posted. Do your research. Dont beleive everything OBAMA SAYS.

Tammy of PA 11:08AM September 03, 2008

OH, YOU MUST BE TALKING ABOUT THE MUSLIM OBAMA BIN LADEN. HE PROMISES THE WORLD, BUT CANT DELIVER. ONE THING THAT HE WILL DELIVER IS RAISING YOUR TAXES IN 2009. Also its not the republicans fault for gas prices. They have been trying to get the democrat to agree to drill in the us. But the democrats refuse. So blame the democrats for the high gas prices and food cost. Do your homework before you vote.
