Well... McCain just finished talking. Anyone? Anyone? McCain presented her qualifications as follows: - she's got executive experience
Oh... boy!!!! She just called her being picked "an opportunity". I hope we're not being introduced to the next Harriette Meyers.
LOL - she just called McCain "my running mate".
LOLOLOL!!!! :))))))) She's honoring the 'achievements' of Jerry Ferraro (she and Mondale won ONE state) and Hilly Clinton who just lost her nomination race.
I love to see people like you going nuts realizing your boy just lost.
If vast goes orgasmic , sound the alarm. I cannot believe that people still watch the political drivel on TV.
Andrea Mitchel just woke up from her feministic reverie... she's wondering "has the McCain campaign just conceded the 'experience' argument?" Remember the McCain's commercial "but is he ready to lead???". Well...
Well duh, Andrea. Palin is a GOVERNOR - ie she is a manager, and a gorgeous one at that unlike Put a bag on her Head Andrea. McCain picked Palin to cover his own Senator for Life weakness ie. lack of managerial experience. When McCain criticized Obama for lack of experience, he was criticizing Obama for being inexperienced in federal politics as compared to himself - he was comparing his Senatorial experience to Obama's Senatorial experience. But I think you knew that, didn't you, vast? McCain and Obama are both anti-America. But in terms of chess, McCain's the better player.
The 'experience' thing was McCain's strongest line of attack. I bet you anything that yesterday was the last day you could watch an 'experience' ad from the McCains. What is McCain's left with now? Explaining that he's not Bush? Attacking Obama for not being Hillary? He's done because he's got nothing to talk about between now and November other than "Look whom I picked. Isn't she lovely?"
Yes, but if and when the Obie crowd points out Palin's inexperience, it backfires on him by highlighting Obie's unbearable lightness of experience. Palin 2 years Gov Obie 2 years Senator..... On the sociocultural front, she's a home run, what with hubbie having a real job of commercial Alyeska fisherman (a brass balls type of trade), - not a lawyer whitecollartype, and a bevy of kids, one deploying to Irak. She's easier on the eyes and ears than Biden. Not a traditional feminist, but the epitomy of a postfeminist feminist encompassing political reform, mother, with a working stiff spouse, and being Alaskan, harking back to a frontier woman image.
Truthfully, she could walk on water and I wouldn't be voting for her because of the pow-hater who straddles the top of the ticket.

Like I said on the other thread, a VP pick usually means nothing, they have no real power except in the case of Cheney, who was chosen by Papa Bush and the GOP to be Junior's handler. So McCain could have picked Ron Paul and it would have made no difference (except for the fact that I'd be disappointed with Ron Paul for accepting). PNAC's man is still the one in charge.
