John McCains running mate >

[50cal]

A mother of 5 children.....and she's gonna leave them to be our VP. She's gonna leave her little 4 month old that has downs syndrome to campaign with McCain and possibly be the next VP of the USA; how selfish! Her little boy needs her.

And what kind of foreign policy/exposure has she had, that's what I'm concerned about. We'll see how she does in the one and only VP debate on 10/2/08.

And one more thing-I'm tired of hearing that Obama is a black man......well he's just as much white as he is black!

Obama is a black man.............just thought I'd let you know....

V.p.

How about some of you powwowers from Alaska telling us what you think of your Gov. since she is now running for Vice- President.
So far I like her, but have only heard of her today and liked her speach at the convention.

Heard her husband works or did work for B.P. oil she has repeatedley put special interests first when it comes to evivonment.
I never heard of her until a few hours ago, and McCain most be a hell of a poker player, about all I can say.

I really dont think experience matters, after they are elected they hire the experienced people to tell them what to do. IE-Bush didnt hire someone too good.

As for Palin, yeah, it is a ploy to get votes from women and natives.

But I like that she is pro-NRA. But she is a devout christian? some doubts there.

She looks good on paper but will she crack under the pressure?

[WocusWoman]

OK, here goes, as a Native American and Native Alaskan woman, that resides in Alaska... John McCain chose well, HOWEVER, when it comes down to it Sarah Palin is just eye-candy and window dressing. She has been a good governor so far for our state, which has over the years been wrapped up in a lot of corruption. I did not vote for her; as she is what I consider a fundamentalist christian and anti-abortionist(all situations). Besides these two points, I've been supportive of her being our new governor, because of the work she has accomplished thus far. I told my husband that is just a matter of time before the dirt start coming out about her, as she is currently being investigated for her part in getting rid of a state trooper(Monnegan) who was head of Alaska Law Enforcement. Monnegan; who is native Alaskan, was let go, as they say for personal reasons due to pressures put on him by her(Sarah Palin) govt. office. Its for them to decide where this investigations go; but I feel she is not ready for this position at this time. It goes to show how pannicked and threatened McCain and the other republican party are at this time.

Palin wouldn't be my first choice but I would rather have a conservative woman as a VP than Obama for president any day.

Several articles I've read are calling Palin's husband one eight Native American or Yupik Eskimo. That's interesting that he's already being described as such.

I'm pretty shocked that someone with so little experience was chosen. Two years ago, she was a mayor of a small town. McCain criticizes Obama for lacking experience and then picks a woman with even less experience. Flip flopping, oh no!

[CandaePrincess]

Okay....like everyone doesn't know I'm a democrat. *L* I think minority republicans is an oxy moron, etc. I was surprised to hear he picked a woman for a running mate. The woman has been Gov' for two years...that's it...she's been mayor before then but come on?? If something happened (God forbid) to either man as prez...would you rather have Biden as Prez who's been in poilitics and has excellent foreign relations...or a woman who was gov' for two years....is it really that hard of a choice?

I think it's cool though, that no matter who they are if you vote this year...you HAVE to vote for a minority! *L* either a black man, or a woman!

Oh, what really irritates me about her though, is her willingness to drill in the Alaskan Wildlife Refuge.....can't imagine how she got chosen...........

[injunboy]

obamas biggest drawback is hes never been a leader.. impressive resume, education, speaker all that but is that enough?

one of the campaign slogans i despise is 'change' or 'hope' and obama is running that exact campaign. so its hard for me to follow what hes doing because its plastered everywhere. since i was little i seen tribal, county, etc elections and it seems like change and hope equal alot of B.S. !! haha its crazy but promising change these days in public service is just obsurd.

so here comes Mrs Palin. she already has control over her own state which includes the nationial guard. Right? so she already has more leadership than obama ever had. big ole bonus points for that one Mr McCain. and then maybe not.. Because after snow, polar bears etc. the other thing Alaska is known for is oil. haha and alot it. enough to have your own world famous pipeline. that kind of oil.
