Default Mac Pick's Palin

McCain praises VP choice Palin's 'tenacity' - John McCain News - MSNBC.com


Mac picked a hardcore conservative reformer for his number 2. She's NRA too.

This is very good news.

From my blog:

McCain/Palin...Who would of thought? After I got up off the floor, brushed myself off, and caught my breath, I started to think about it.

A young, inexperienced, Governor of Alaska? Really? My biggest concern is that McCain did not choose somebody who would help solidify any of the battleground states. That hurts. My second biggest concern is that Palin is adamantly Pro-Life, so will she really be able to pull in Hillary's Army? I'm not so sure.

After I got past those two points, I started to get excited. A lifetime NRA member with a husband who actually works for a living? A hunter, fisher, and winner of several marathons and snowmobile races? A former runner-up to Miss Alaska? And a governor who actually has executive experience? She blows Obama out of the water, and Obama wants to play the experience game?

Obama, with a somewhat diluted message of change, picks a Washington insider for VP, and shuns Hillary.

McCain, a maverick with values, positions, and answers picks a woman who could not be further from Washington.

Obama's over-hyped speech and convention are yesterdays news, and for that, McCain gets Highest Honors.

Default Bye, Bye Obama!!!

Home run by McCain!!! Not only a NRA lifetimer, shooter, hunter, athlete, smart, poised, nice family, and super hot! Did anybody hear that Obama made some kind of speach or something last night?:D

Care to explain?

This statement is beyond comprehension. Maybe we should start asking what planet our members are from when they sign up?

Unreasonable search and seizure?

I happen to think it's a pretty good choice. She balances McCain and totally blows the two tax and spend liberals out of the water when it comes to all matters with the exception of foriegn policy but McCain has that covered. She has the experience of having to balance a budget and run a state whereas O/B have done nothing but spend our money.

That being said, I hope McCain didn't pick her to get the Hillary votes because I don't think that will happen. She seems like she can hold her own. Besides, all the Hillary ladies are going to be jealous of her looks!

Me likes older women!

Google the latest FISA act - McCain voted FOR immunity for companies who violated the 4th amendment.

zembonez - I am from the planet of critical thought and love of personal liberty. Maybe we should examine mods that open and close a locked thread just to "get in the last word".......
