OK, she named her kids...Bristol, Piper, Track, Willow and get this, named her newborn Trig Paxson Van Palin.

Track?

Van Palin?

How can we trust her with our fuure when she does that to her kids?

I think they are pretty cool names.  Certainly better than the over 10,000,000 babies named "Jackson" in the last couple of years.

Why is everyone picking on her?  She's strong, successful and very family oriented.  

Some people are so sexist.  I hope no one makes any racist comments just because she's in a mixed marriage.

She's like the Republican version of Tina Fey.  

Rawr.

Seriously.  What's up with the alarmingly shallow Republican bench this season?  Is everyone in hiding?  Or did everyone defect to Ron Paul's campaign?

McCain loads the 12 guage. Takes careful aim. And blows off both feet.

Sure, I want a woman moments away from leadership of the most powerful country in the world who is barely known outside of a state that re-elects a corrupt congressman even when he bold face steals from the government.

McCain's choice was much more important than Obama's because of the age/senility issues. It may have been a politically savvy choice considering the boobs that were available (no pun intended) but I would point out that you guys are marketing and political insiders. The general public doesn't know squat about her or Alaska. His judgement is cloudy.

Gas, you seem to think that remarks made during a contentious primary actually hold long term meaning. Voodoo Politics. Like this election occurs in a vacuum. Remarks by former republican contenders are also on tape and ready for use.

The sexism in this thread is nauseating. She has not even been positively named yet and you are ripping on her. So what is it? You worried because she might have hot flashes?

You just exposed yourself Guido. Would you rather I not defined her as a woman? That was the only possible sexist remark I made. You on the other hand threw in "hot flashes". Curious.

She was just confirmed as his VP. Lightweight stuff. Maybe she'll draw off the Hillary malcontents who were voting McCain anyway.

McCain Palin???  Wow.

"Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!"



IMO, it's a better pick than Dan Quayle or Spiro Agnew....  oh, wait... [:I]
Hmmm.

Awesome choice! This is going to be fun!

"Yes, but she'll energize the right!"  Its all about winning for these guys. The repubs don't care about experience. To them presidents are figureheads that execute their orders. This is a gamble with our country. She is not qualified in any way to be a president and a VP has to have the ability to step in.

I exposed MYSELF?  Here is what the dems are saying about the ticket:

Interesting. . .

She's a:

Avid hunter
Fisherperson
Marathon runner
Plays hockey
Major Soccer Fan
Big fitness freak
Proponent of Green energy

Should be a big help to McCain, against a heavy smoker and an old crusty senator.

This is Change we can believe in!

No, here's what the Dems are saying:

"Let's be honest: John McCain clearly wanted Tom Ridge or Joe Lieberman, but he was afraid to buck his party's choice ideologues. So then they looked at Mittens, but having a baker's dozen homes wasn't looking so hot. So he figured that with Pawlenty, he might make a play for Minnesota, but that got shot down over the last week as it become increasingly obvious that Biden would wipe the floor with him in their debate.

Throw in Obama's ground-shifting speech last night, and it was clear that McCain had to throw a hail mary to just remain in the game, much less be competitive.

So we get Sarah Palin, who has a fairly compelling personal story and is an attractive woman, but has scant political experience, zero name recognition outside of political junky circles, faces an ethical investigation by her own legislature, and will now be forced to run a grueling national campaign despite having an infant child at home.

Those are the marks of desperation, and really, given his precarious electoral position, John McCain had no choice.

That's always the first questions I ask when deciding whom to vote for.  Who cares what your positions are on the economy, energy, national defense, women's issues, education, etc...., what I really want to know is if you have ever shot a moose.

I saw that.  Hilarious.  I also noticed that they are jumping on this concept that Bush is manipulating the war in Georgia for the election, and using cloud seeding techniques to steer tropical storm Gustov towards Louisiana so that he can avoid making an appearance at the convention.

The PUMA group is supposed to make a statement later today.  I bet they endorse McCain after this.

What the hell are you talking about, experience? Tell me about Obama's long legislative or executive background. This guy started running for predident shortly after he got elected to the Senate. And, remind me, what are Obama's qualifications to be president? I hope the dems make this the issue to the voters.

Didn't even read the link. You chose my post to refer to as sexist. I couldn't care less what people on an underground link are blathering.
