A bit of an exaggeration. Nevertheless, they will be elected. |

People are complainging about Palin's international experience and she's only going to be Vice President?
WTF are you people smoking. Obama is just as inexperienced and he's running for f-ing President for christs sake.
McCain's selection of Palin is genius. Anyone who points a finger at Palin and her inexperience will be called a hypocrite for not pointing that same finger at Obama. |

a quick comparison:
"Obama was elected to the Illinois Senate in 1996, succeeding State Senator Alice Palmer..."
"Palin became Alaska's first female governor [. . .] She took office on December 4, 2006"
doesn't 10 years in federal politics count for something more than being the mayor of a town of 9780 people? my 14 year old niece could do that job.
obama inexperienced? just keep repeating that and eventually everyone will believe it. unfortunately for you, it's horseshit. in contrast, mccain, who is 25 years older than obama, has only 14 more years of house/senate experience. if you're going to keep blowing hard on the "oh, he's so inexperienced" crap, why not take mccain to task for entering federal politics so late? if anything, the generation gap between mccain and most of the electorate and it making mccain out of touch with reality is a bigger problem than obama being some kind of spring chicken.
as well - what's mccain's attendance record? it's crap. he missed 64% of his votes. obama just barely gets a pass, but a 36% attendance record? and this guy wants to be president? doesn't inactivity enter the equation at all?
contrast this with obama's activity as a senator.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bills_sponsored_by_Barack_Obama_in_the_United_States_Senate
Barack Obama has sponsored 136 bills since Jan 4, 2005.
That's a ratio of 136/3. roughly 45.333333 per year.
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/person.xpd?id=400629
John McCain has sponsored 537 bills since Jan 21, 1993. roughly 35 per year.
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/person.xpd?id=300071
and just look at their mannerisms. when faced with a question, the mccain camp does its best to hide and give vague answers. obama seems to look you straight on and give the most fair and honest answer he can. perhaps it's an act, but i just have more confidence in the guy.
mccain is 72, and he's not in the best of health. do you have any idea just how fucked the USA would be if he kicked the bucket? only a moron would put themselves in the position where sarah palin could one day become president. she's a religious fruitcake with near zero experience, and her record shows her to be a vindictive cronyist bitch.
mccain's selection of palin was indeed genius. palin hiding from the media for 2 weeks and then looking like a moron once she was in front of the camera? she blew it on that one.
you find me a person who actually trusts palin with this responsibility, i'll show you a person who has problems at a chromosomal level. does the US let people with down's syndrome vote? |

Watching this interview is there anyway that Sarah Palin could actually be taken seriously as the VP of the United States of America?
"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ALsjhDDdaA
Go to war with Russia? Chase terrorists into Pakistan without the consent of the Pakistan government because it is "God's plan?" NEVER HAS MET A HEAD OF STATE OF A FOREIGN COUNTRY!"
My Giddy Aunt!!!
And as for "Barry?!!!!" well I rest my case.
I think this guy said it best;

After the egg Wall Street laid yesterday, are you still saying that with a straight face? Experts are saying there is a kind of run on the banks at home. Things are as serious as in 1929.
There is an even chance now that McCain will have to threaten to beat his own mom to get her to vote for him. |

Wow. How's the ulcer, man?
Wall Street happenings won't affect McCain's campaign. Obama's popularity has been slipping for weeks. He's done.
Vice President Palin. Cool. |

i really don't believe that mccain/palin can win this one. even fox news is calling them out for lying about shit.
wait until the debates. mccain can't answer a question. obama seems to embrace questions. |

Fake it till ya make it man. Obama's little international presidential candidate journey went off pretty well. When was the last time anyone outside of the USA was happy when someone with the title President of the United States of America (even if the title is followed up by "nominee") showed up at their doorstep to pay a visit.
The Europeans couldn't get Bush in and out fast enough when he did his little farewell tour. |

i think they were just more embracing of someone who went about trying to learn a thing or two about their country. |

Obama seems like a dufus-putz-moron to me. When he opens his mouth, all this bile comes out.
I guess this is a lose-lose situation ONCE AGAIN. Politicians. What can you do? There was maybe one good politician I can think of back in Canada: Frank McKenna. He was only Premier of New Brunswick. He rejected the idea of becoming Prime Minister. Other than that, can't think of any other good ones.
But this dork of a running mate of McCain's? What the fk is that? |
