Hopefully, Mirror is wrong this time. (no offense intended) It will be a tortuous 4 years and the economy is going to fall face down if they get into office.

Mirror knows no such thing. He can see the devastation that will be caused by those two to this country. Sorry Mirror had to pipe in on that one.

Maybe, if enough fundamentalist crazy soccer moms vote for McCain because they love Sarah Palin (she's one of us!) Some still pissed off former Hillary supporters could vote for him as revenge against Obama.

Sarah Palin could become a serious liability to John McCain's campaign. She already is with thinking conservatives.

And the Palin-McCain media stonewall continues... "As of this writing, it has been 39 days and 22 hours since Sen. John McCain last held a news conference... it's been 24 days and 11 hours since his running mate, Sarah Palin, held one." - The Washington Post Looks like the "Straight Talk Express" is in one very long and dark tunnel.

May I slightly tweak/correct your comment a little, Dragoness? "Hopefully, Mirror is wrong this time. It will be a tortuous 4 years and the economy is going to fall face down if they get into office." Ummm - How bout: It WILL CONTINUE TO BE TORTUROUS AND THE ECONOMY HAS ALREADY FALLEN FACE DOWN...! What makes anyone think 4 years with McCain-Palin would be ANY different/better than the past gut-wrenching, debilitating 8 years with Bush-Cheney? WHAT TRUE qualifications does Sarah Palin have? Every time the woman opens her mouth, nothing but moronic, stupid comments flow out (women, is that REALLY the kind of female you want "representing" you?!). We've had to put up with 8 years of George W.'s embarrassing gaffes and utterances, (not to mention, the decisions that have put the country in a near depression and mired in war; and facing so much debt our grandchildren won't be able to pay their way out of it) do we REALLY want to continue to give the world the impression that the bulk of Americans believe that someone like Palin is the BEST and BRIGHTEST and whom we want in charge and making life-changing decisions for us? Lord, people! WAKE UP! OK, pardon the rant ... it's the first one I've had on this topic - I guess there's something to be said for feeling free to speak your mind among strangers. (I hope I didn't offend anyone...but I imagine I did.)

WHAT TRUE qualifications does Sarah Palin have? Every time the woman opens her mouth, nothing but moronic, stupid comments flow out http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/013/851orcjq.asp here's why Palin is in the game The Most Popular Governor Alaska's Sarah Palin is the GOP's newest star. by Fred Barnes 07/16/2007, Volume 012, Issue 41 Increase Font Size \| Printer-Friendly \| Email a Friend \| Respond to this article Juneau The wipeout in the 2006 election left Republicans in such a state of dejection that they've overlooked the one shining victory in which a Republican star was born. The triumph came in Alaska where Sarah Palin, a politician of eye-popping integrity, was elected governor. She is now the most popular governor in America, with an approval rating in the 90s, and probably the most popular public official in any state. Her rise is a great (and rare) story of how adherence to principle--especially to transparency and accountability in government--can produce political success. And by the way, Palin is a conservative who only last month vetoed 13 percent of the state's proposed budget for capital projects. The cuts, the Anchorage Daily News said, "may be the biggest single-year line-item veto total in state history." As recently as last year, Palin (pronounced pale-in) was a political outcast. She resigned in January 2004 as head of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission after complaining to the office of Governor Frank Murkowski and to state Attorney General Gregg Renkes about ethical violations by another commissioner, Randy Ruedrich, who was also Republican state chairman. State law barred Palin from speaking out publicly about ethical violations and corruption. But she was vindicated later in 2004 when Ruedrich, who'd been reconfirmed as state chairman, agreed to pay a $12,000 fine for breaking state ethics laws. She became a hero in the eyes of the public and the press, and the bane of Republican leaders. In 2005, she continued to take on the Republican establishment by joining Eric Croft, a Democrat, in lodging an ethics complaint against Renkes, who was not only attorney general but also a long-time adviser and campaign manager for Murkowski. The governor reprimanded Renkes and said the case was closed. It wasn't. Renkes resigned a few weeks later, and Palin was again hailed as a hero. Palin, 43, the mother of four, passed up a chance to challenge Republican senator Lisa Murkowski, the then-governor's daughter, in 2004. She endorsed another candidate in the primary, but Murkowski won and was reelected. Palin said then that her 14-year-old son talked her out of running, though it's doubtful that was the sole reason. In 2006, she didn't hesitate. She ran against Gov. Murkowski, who was seeking a second term despite sagging poll ratings, in the Republican primary. In a three-way race, Palin captured 51 percent and won in a landslide. She defeated former Democratic governor Tony Knowles in the general election, 49 percent to 41 percent. She was one of the few Republicans anywhere in the country to perform above expectations in 2006, an overwhelmingly Democratic year. Palin is unabashedly pro life. With her emphasis on ethics and openness in government, "it turned out Palin caught the temper of the times perfectly," wrote Tom Kizzia of the Anchorage Daily News. She was also lucky. News broke of an FBI investigation of corruption by legislators between the primary and general elections. So far, three legislators have been indicted. In the roughly three years since she quit as the state's chief regulator of the oil industry, Palin has crushed the Republican hierarchy (virtually all male) and nearly every other foe or critic. Political analysts in Alaska refer to the "body count" of Palin's rivals. "The landscape is littered with the bodies of those who crossed Sarah," says pollster Dave Dittman, who worked for her gubernatorial campaign. It includes Ruedrich, Renkes, Murkowski, gubernatorial contenders John Binkley and Andrew Halcro, the three big oil companies in Alaska, and a section of the Daily News called "Voice of the Times," which was highly critical of Palin and is now defunct.

Nice... But you do know that when you throw down FACTS... You get lipstick on that darn pig again... followed by the bullstinking pigwash about how white voters won't vote for Obama because he's black... (is he really, please dudes, Jessie Jackson is black, Obama is untried, His race means nothing compared to his wet ears). followed by an immediate indorsement of every Obama negative add... Followed of course by a statement that Obama dosen't put out negative adds but McCain does. and somehow the issues disapear withing the stinking cloud that springs like magic around your facts.

Get used to the Sarah Palin saga. I have a feeling its gonna be going on for the next 4 to 8 years. This is just the tip of the iceberg I'm glad to see you know who should win!!!!!!!!!! I didnt say I think they SHOULD win but I just think thats who IS gonna win. Its not about what I want. Im capable of reaching conclusions despite how I feel about a particular subject. Last night CNN showed Obama up in the polls.
