I personally like Obama and I have a feeling this might hurt his chances with Clinton fanatics because of the bush clone choosing a woman. TRP/PVT Famus/2SQD/1PLT/1COM/1BAT/1RGT//Tadath/VEA//VE

I think the fact that the majority of her experience is with a population of 6500 and her biggest worry for two years was if there would be enough snow for the Iditarod may discourage a lot of people. Kam "Denethor" Vox

Biden is going to rip her apart in the VP debates. He's a much better public speaker, for one, and he's not a newbie to national politics, for another.
I'm not a fan of the choice, but I'm also in the Obama camp. Palin is Pro-Life and anti-gay marriage. She advocated teaching intelligence design in schools. She's also under investigation in her own home state and publicly wondered what exactly the VP does every day. High Admiral Japheth Cappadocious, Krath Templar

The points Japheth made are exactly what may make her a good choice after all. Those positions appeal to a lot of neoconservative Republicans, and many others toward the right-wing of the party. McCain started off this election very weak with the far right-wing, and whatever else Palin has to say, this is likely to shore up his support with that bloc. Plus, she's pretty hot for 44.

In a way that is odd, but I'm sure that you need to look at it from other country's points of view. Americans don't care about politics in other countries. Why? Because we're Americans and in our minds, we're the only country that matters. However, there isn't as much ignorance in other countries towards the rest of the world, and people actually pay attention to what other countries are doing. And yes, they especially pay attention to what Americans are doing, especially during this point in history, because they want to know if we're going to vote in someone that's eventually going to blow them up.

If anyone has any sense at all, they should see this choice is just a ploy for woman's votes. She doesn't seem like she'd be a particularly strong vice president to me. Vast Imperial Stormtrooper Corps

I am so sorry that you were there Wicket. It must've been a pain to feel that because of Biden being chosen you felt you Republicans had the game in the bag, and then saw it flushed down the toilet when McCain announced Palin. I feel for you, I really do.

While I believe the party that calls anyone who disagrees with them "traitors" then goes and chooses a VP nominee who has ties to a separatist party is about THE. STUPIDEST. MOVE. EVER. I would much rather laugh at the whole thing. To hopefully not stir this any further, this observation from David Letterman: Quote:"Is it just me or does Sarah Palin look like a model for LensCrafters?"
