You beat me to it. I was just going to post the same thing. I just finished reading all about her on the "site that shall not be named" and was intrigued. I don't care for Obama, Biden or McCain, but this one is interesting.

At least you finally admit you misinterpreted my words.
But I purposefully misrepresented you to prove a point. That's what you don't get. Sigh...

"O'Reilly's main hammer-thrust against Obama is "we still don't know who this guy is."
So -- do we?"
We never do until they gain power. Eight years ago a lot of folks thought GWB was going to be a small-government, environmentally friendly president. Remember how he wasn't going to follow Bill Clinton's wrong-headed policy of "nation building" around the world?

You are correct. I don't get it. Please point out the point you were trying to make in misrepresenting me when I had not misrepresented anyone else.

It's like quicksilver on the net re: McCain's VP pick. Dammit! Now I just have no idea who the heck it's gonna be.
Scratch that! It's Governor Palin of Alaska. Obama needs to get his s**t in HIGH-GEAR!

Good news, more people are becoming super-rich.
But the rest of us are getting poorer.

This is like a bizarrObama ticket - Older, more established and experienced candidate with a newbie running mate.
Finally, someone on these tickets that's not a Senator! And now this will be historic one way or the other - we will be getting either the first Black President or the first Female Vice President (yeah, McCain would be the oldest starting President, but I don't think that's such a big deal).

That's a good move, a woman- makes those bitter Hillary supporters more likely to want to get a woman in office. Dammit. Hopefully that will outweigh the fact that Alaska votes won't do much for the ticket, and that she's less conservative than him (angering conservative republicans).

The American people are going to be much more comfortable with the less-experienced candidate being the VP nominee and not the Presidential nominee. The Republicans are THIS close to winning this thing. Damn.
At least like Biden she brings no real electoral strength with her. Thank goodness for small favors.
The other thing is Biden could easily make mince-meat out of her in
the debates, BUT, he is going to be hindered by not wanting the
perception to be that he "beat up" on a lady.

Hmmm. Now if McCain wins, I believe he won't seek re-election. That means in 2012 it could very well be Palin vs. Clinton, two moderate women (one a little to the left and one a little to the right) running.
