Palin Options

[Robert]

Just wanted to point out I called Palin as VP over 4 months ago, for all the same reasons the decision was made now.
If McCain wins, I honestly believe this will be what puts him over the top.

Also you couldn't ask for better timing to make this announcement.
The DNC convention ended last night with a huge bang an there's not a single leading news story about it.
The news is 100% about Palin as VP.
Talk about stealing someones thunder.

I hope they win an McCain dies the next day.

Exactly why Obama will never speak without a teleprompter.... Oh thats right he will do townhall style debates versus McCain.....

what was your point? that when a politican has a tought question they fold?
Well just let a little girl ask chosen one a question and watch him stutter.... not exactly the partisan questions that the Repubs get from the press ehhh?


At any rate Nice topic, with you and Druid... I wanted to post a lot, just did not want to break up the flow.... Keep it going and we all may learn something. Mostly what I'm learning is that all politicians practice dirty tricks, lies, and smear campaigns against their opponents that have nuggets of fact, that are spun for maxximim effect.

On principal I still cannot vote for Obama because the Dem's of today compared to the Kennedy era are so liberal they are socialists and marxcist. the repubs of today are closer to the old school dems, and no-one is really looking out for the people or the country, they are looking at getting re-elected.

on the + side the politicans have done a wonderfull job of dividing people into their voting block groups, controlling the rest, and only pander to the middle 10%.
So just vote within your group, and they will continue to ignore you...Err all will be good later

All you christions to the right... All you minority cultures to the left..... and to everyone else we promise.....

Well that's not true;
Alot of those in minority cultures are Christians, And some in minority cultures are Republican. The main divide of 'blocks' going on that count significantly is between classes.

That slight stutter Obama has is pretty insignificant compared to the fact that he he shows himself to be a thinker and weighs judgement. Fast smart-mouthed talkers like Palin and McCain seem to have the main problem with being impressive communicators. By all accounts, most 'experts' were saying McCain should be destroying Obama at this point in the race.

You must not be watching alot of Obama's speeches to see that he engages audiences lengthily without teleprompters.
Also why does he have to feel obligated to play into McCain's obvious tactic of trying to seem like he's controlling the tempo of the race regarding townhall meetings [and more recently the cunniving sham by McCain to suspend his campaign and call for Obama to do the same-which McCain actually never did -at least nobody in his troupe besides himself did!]. It's a childish ploy. Obama has his own campaign strategy-why should he play second fiddle to a desperado? There's this thing called debates which will give them both an opportunity to go at each other nationwide and globally
..... Oh that's right, McCain is trying to duck out of the debate versus Obama .... on the pretense he's got crucial business to do in Washington> which leads to something very interesting...........


Why does a person like McCain -self-professed as a fundamental deregulator- who 2 weeks ago stated boldly that the economy was 'fundamentally sound' THINK that he of all people is a crucial part of the equation regarding the current financial bail-out negotiations.
Was everyone in the negotiations ROFL when they heard the GURU of economics McCain was coming into Dodge to save them all!
Is this some kind of incredible morbid joke!? Or is he that desperate to duck out of the debate? Or is he again gambling by playing 'Saviour' of the situation - Maverick Johnny on the Spot to appear 'leaderly' -
Why is he gambling with screwing up the negotiations and risking collapsing the economy GLOBALLY just as part of strategy to become President.
He gambled on the surge working too- which was fumbling until the Sunnis revolted against Al quaeda -now may be that in itself was a spin-off from the Surge, but the Surge would never have succeeded with its deep thrust without the Awakening Councils. McCain never mentions this unexpected turnaround of events as the propulsion for the Surge's success -instead he claims he somehow orchestrated its success - never mind the Dems in congress feeding funding for the Surge to continue..... a few conveniently ommitted facts.

back on topic---->
And then there's Palin lately - McCain campaign shielding her from reporters recently at a small international chat. And in recent interviews, Palin is showing NO aptitude for International Affairs. She's having a hard time giving her vision of the world stage repeatedly- alarming.....

And then there's this.... media seems to be letting her off the hook lately; if this was Obama, we'd see this played up for weeks, 24/7.... It's a clip showing Palin being blessed in her 'church' by a pastor/witch-hunter -who also prays [in an exorcist/demon voice] to Jesus that she receives financial blessings too - and Palin is all fine with it,..... Geezus.
The Conservatives that were worried about her as 'the' VP choice are now seeing their fears materialize.
When trumpets fade...........
