thinkprogress.org — Very little was known nationally about Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) until Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) selected her as his running mate on Aug. 29. Tonight, Palin will be speaking in St. Paul, giving what the media are billing as “the most anticipated speech of the Republican National Convention.”

i am a woman and palin would NEVER represent me. and she is SO NOT the most qualified - Mcsame was pandering, thinking that he could just replace a history making, proven woman like hillary with just another "skirt" and get me to vote for him and her. Well, he is wrong. I am a woman and a single mom and palin, and mccain too, can never represent me:she would do even more harm than bush to the environmentshe does not believe in global warming - same coloring book as bush againshe wants to drill everywhereher running mate has NEVER voted for alternative energyshe laughs when other women are called bit__ on a public radioshe is a member of the AIP that thinks it can start its own countryshe is OK with book banning and will bully librarians to get her wayshe has hacked into computers in campaigns to get her wayshe was before the bridge before she was against it and "forgot" thatshe has troopergate and now wants to transfer the case to her croniesshe thinks God ordained the warshe left her town $27 million in debt - a town of LESS than 10,000she HAS used lobbyist - we are just supposed to ignore that facther running mate VOTED AGAINST equal pay for equal workmccain and his family spent $900,000 on ONE credit vcard in ONE month - he has no clue about the economymccain wants to, and VOTED for privatization of social security - my parents depend on that!mccane health care - the cost for a famly of four for insurance is $13,000 A YEAR by a recent study - he will give you a $5000 tax credit - and tax any benefits from employers. Does he think the insurance companies are just going to suddenly LOWER their costs.his probable financial advisor - phil graham - thinks all this is in our heads!as a woman - i say NO WAY. and there needs to be vetting, and public discourse. i AM SICK of sound bites - she "has done so much" - what??????? when she was mayor WE ARE TALKING LESS THAN 1000 PEOPLE WHO ELECTED HER - that needs to be known. Alaska has a population SMALLER THAN Columbus, Ohio - true fact. And she has 18 months experience.
