I'll say it: I think it's insulting that McCain chose

this woman to try to attract the women that voted for Hillary.

It's as if he thinks "One woman is as good as the next." As if he doesn't realize that people voted for Hillary because they also thought she was a good candidate!

It's maddening!!!

    She's pro-life, pro-NRA and thought Hillary was a whiner. The only people who will support her are the Hillaryis44 brigade, and they're just the same three freeper blokes pretending to be women.

    Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. It's a blatant and pathetic grab for women votes. Nice try. As much as I'd like to see a woman president, it sure as hell shouldn't be her. No offense to her personally, but she has no experience.

    My hope is that these two people will seem clownish compared to Obama and Biden.

    is it wrong that i thought she was really pretty? :)
    I didn't think he did this to pander to women so much as to get his own 'flashy'/'historical' type of ticket, and also to deflect media attention away from Obama's speech.

    OMG - this is the stuff nightmares are made of! :eek:

    Seriously though, Gov Palin has very little experience at the state level and no experience with foreign policy! And John McCain is 72 years old! The chances of her becoming the president are pretty good.
    And she doesn't like the cute little polar bears.

    How can she seriously even think of keeping the polar bears off the endangered species list? NPR report today - the ice is at it's second lowest level in the 30 years that they've kept track...and it's supposed to pass that level in the next couple weeks.

    She is pretty, but so what? Pretty women are a dime a dozen. :)

    It did seem like an act of desperation didn't it? That speech must have frightened him.

    All Hillary has to do is publicly poo-poo Palin, to "terminate with extreme prejudice", figuratively speaking of course, and that's that sorted. I think she might even do it.
