McCain/Palin ???

[Pam]

I am sure its been hashed out before, but at least Palin has some executive experience.

That is not enough for most of us. Last night I watched Larry King and he had on James Carville (who I have never cared for) and some others on his panel. I almost felt sorry for the McCain people trying to defend his selection. Carville hit them and hit them hard with some of his questions which they tried to not answer. What qualifications does she have to lead this nation with three wars ongoing at this time? I guess we are to assume that McCain will handle the wars and she will handle the economy. Neither thought gives me great comfort. I think McCain has shot himself in the foot big time, but not because there is anything wrong with Ms. Palen. She is just the wrong gal for the job IMHO.

Sparks19,

Don't forget all the illegitimate "baby bumps" seen in the tabloids. Does Brad and Angelina ring a bell?? What kind of message does that send? It's pathetic. Here in CT, the more kids you have, the more welfare you get. Nice, huh?? Back in the late 60's we also had a girl that "went away". I ran into her a couple of years ago and she wound up marrying the guy who got her pregnant way years later.

I do applaud Palin for standing by her daughter. I'd do the same if it were my daughter. It has absolutely nothing to do with the campaign for President.

Scandals aside, I agree with you on this.

Any person considering a run for public office has to know their whole
life story is going to be public knowledge. Palin can't be surprised at the
hoopla over personal stories in the news.

Not many people outside Alaska even heard of Palin before this, so yeah,
expect to hear a lot more as more is known.
