Palin: To know her is to not like her so much

Wow, I feel like a real participant now.  I've allowed myself to be lowered into the cesspool of closed minded conservative thinkers lurking in the political Forum.

It's not a wonderful feeling getting that all over you.

Good afternoon.

And again, my challenge goes unanswered.  No one can seem to come up with anything good about Biden other than he's been in public life a long time.  (I do appreciate the effort, HT and thanks for not citing a bunch of moonbat Palin crap!)

Can't think of anything positive to say about your own candidate so it's tear down the opponent and those who support her with unsubstantiated paranoia.

That's the thing Conan.  He's not my candidate.  Point out the good in Palin.  What will make her a good president if McCain dies?

Will she do a good job?  Will the world treat her as the rightful leader for the US and do business and politics with her administration the way it should?

Will her beliefs overtake logical decision making pertaining to being the leader of the United States on the world stage?

How much will her viewpoints hurt our standings?  Will it all become a slew of jokes?

Why should I believe she will make a good President?  She'd be one 72 year old heartbeat away.

Apparently it doesn't matter to these people any more whether accusations have a basis in fact or not as long as it does damage.  Remember, RM told us a few weeks ago that once it's posted on the Internets, it's truth until someone proves it not to be.

Biden has been considered presidential material for several election cycles now.  His expertise in foreign affairs has always been cited.  Having been tested in the public eye does mean a lot.  We've gotten to know him.  We've gotten to see his reactions to many different situations.  He is playing the role that Gore played for Clinton.  He is fleshing out Obama's creditials.  He is cool and level headed and tested and a much appreciated addition to the Democrat's ticket.

Palin is not a bad woman but she is not in the same class as the other three contenders.  

Her problem now is that she has fallen in with a bad crowd -- like McCain.

Putting the Neocon crowd in charge of his campaign was a serious error on McCain's part.  McCain should have reached back into his party's past and found moderates to people his campaign.  My guess is that his arm was twisted and like always he fell in line with the Party.

It's already been shown that Palin operates on logic, rather than primarily religious decision making. What scares you is that she is morally grounded in her beliefs. Morality is always a problem for Democrats. They don't understand what they don't have or believe in. It's a relief to logical, morally grounded, intelligent individuals, not a problem.

I'm fine with her being a heartbeat away. I think she would be better than any of the 3 Senators. The least qualified of them would be stepping right in to the head job. No experience, no morality, no logic. Book smart, but not street wise. No common Sense. Yep Obama is the perfect Dim candidate.

Crash Daily, How moral is torture?

Your party is responsible for torture.

Being moral is more than sitting in church on Sunday morning.  Lots of hypocrites without a moral bone in their bodies sit in church on Sunday mornings.

Like hyperbole much?

I mean what I say.  I don't have to twist words to make a point.  You know -- straight talk.  Another straight talking Democrat.

To himself.  Somehow, that didn't translate to the rank-and-file of the party though.

Hmm, same goes for McCain I guess.

Except in this cycle, he seems to me to be self-destructing.  When you have Karl Rove essentially calling you a liar and saying your ads are stepping over the line, that's like Vince McMahon saying your sport is fake.
