- wtmayberry, on 08/29/2008, -38/+252John Mccain is an embarrassment to the Office of Pres. by picking someone he doesn't know.
No Way, No How , No Mccain!- Hillary Clinton - tcbishop12, on 08/30/2008, -23/+185Sarah Who? also has implemented a policy agenda diametrically opposed to women's interests: an anti-feminist, anti-equal pay, anti-abortion platform. Anti-environment and pro-Big Oil. And the Alaska economy has tanked during her 2 year administration.
She is also facing a formal ethics investigation calling for her impeachment. Nice.
Who vetted this person?
What's that? Oh. Oh, yes. Perfectly clear. Now I see. If you haven't spent 5 1/2 years in a hellhole for your country like John McCain, how can you dare question this choice.
For a man who is 72 years old and has had four bouts with cancer to have chosen someone so completely unqualified to become president is shockingly irresponsible. Suddenly, McCain's age and health become central issues in the campaign, as does his judgment. - sockpuppets, on 08/30/2008, -9/+158I've had one night stands with women I've never met before. Asking her to move in with me for at least 4 years would have been... inappropriate.
- Carv, on 08/30/2008, -19/+142This VP pick is a desperate campaign tactic and I sincerely, for the sake of America's future, hope it does not work.
- PaulMorel, on 08/29/2008, -17/+134Don't forget about when Karl Rove was all in a fluster about how Tim Kaine was totally unqualified to be VP. Only 3 years as governor... blah blah blah ... Palin has less experience (2 years), is married to the oil industry, and is as corrupt as Rove and his buddies.
- gozroth, on 08/30/2008, -3/+103did you see who submitted this story? this is obviously anti-moose-hunter propaganda.
- sassce, on 08/30/2008, -15/+113A woman who can shoot a moose at 3:00 am in the morning is best endorsement these idiots can up with for their VP?
sad! - x1soundgarden1x, on 08/30/2008, -9/+92I can't believe this website already sprung up, I think a lot of women are offended by this pick.
Sarah Palin Isn't Hillary Clinton:
http://www.sarahpalinisnthillaryclinton.com/ - afx1, on 08/30/2008, -7/+84get used to these types of judgment calls if he gets elected
- dollar0dot02, on 08/30/2008, -11/+81she hunts moose ... loser ... dick cheney shoots people
- tcbishop12, on 08/30/2008, -12/+71As Andrew Sullivan asked earlier today (paraphrasing): At what point will most people suddenly realize that McCain is actually less interested in governing than in politics?
And willing to let personal liking and respect for utterly unqualified people trump the sober responsibilities of running a country at war, a climate in flux, an economy in trouble, and an empire close to imploding?
Sullivan added: This was a bit of a F-U pick, a personal, totally idiosyncratic, gut-level, aggressive piece of opportunism.
Just a gimmick. - AndrewDB, on 08/30/2008, -12/+70I love reading all the Republicans saying "She's a perfect choice.." when they're just as clueless about who the hell she is as the Democrats are.
- SDeluxe, on 08/30/2008, -13/+69Are you serious? What the *****. That's all I can say to this.
- falser, on 08/30/2008, -8/+59Hey, hey, did you know that John McCain is a former POW? Yes, it's true, and that means he can do whatever the hell he wants. He can cheat on his wife, and it's okay. He can forget how many houses he owns. And he can accidentally choose a running mate he's never heard of before.
/sarcasm - jayb1rd, on 08/30/2008, -15/+66It's almost like McCain WANTS Obama to win.
- CJ117, on 08/30/2008, -7/+51Sounds to me like he just wanted a woman for a running mate...
- inactive, on 08/30/2008, -12/+55I think we can all agree that this is a joke, and any woman without water on the brain would agree this is somewhat of an embarrassment to women.
- ScoobyG, on 08/30/2008, -9/+50But he was a POW!
- pixelguru, on 08/30/2008, -3/+43Wait... there are women in Alaska???
- Chainheart2, on 08/30/2008, -6/+41OH NO ANYTHING BUT THE LIBERAAAAAAAALLLLSSSSS
- NegativeDigg, on 08/30/2008, -4/+36sad part is that the moose is better qualified to become vice president...
- AndrewDB, on 08/30/2008, -5/+37You're not McCain though. He changes his women more than he does his Depends.
- inactive, on 08/30/2008, -7/+38I shoot my load at 3:00 am in the morning, kan I haz Veep nominayshun plez?
- NegativeDigg, on 08/30/2008, -10/+37SOLID? you mean her current scandal as governor of alaska? You should use the google.
- inactive, on 08/30/2008, -14/+41I think he picked her to steal Obama's "thunder", she'll probably drop out during the convention.
- pandaboy99, on 08/30/2008, -3/+30She wants to teach creationism in school!? might as well teach that Xenu is the master of the universe
- AndrewDB, on 08/30/2008, -2/+28Chris (akchrs)
A 46 year-old guy from Juneau, AK.

Gee. I wonder why you know who she is. - RoroCo, on 08/30/2008, -7/+29He is 72... Every 72 year old has a significant risk of heart complications. Besides... heartbeat away is politically correct way of saying if the president passes regardless of the cause. It is not literal.
- xexx, on 08/30/2008, -5/+24Uh, how?
- Rikkochet, on 08/30/2008, -0/+19Cheney is so badass he doesn't just shoot people, he shoots FRIENDS. THAT is the definition of badass.
- joshfitz, on 06/15/2009, -1/+20From that site:
"In a gubernatorial debate, Palin stated emphatically that her opposition to abortion was so great, so total, that even if her teenage daughter was impregnated by a rapist, she would "choose life""
That'll win over the ladies, for sure. - Danktolker, on 08/30/2008, -3/+22Looks like her 3 am phone call is going to voicemail.
- UNCsucks, on 08/30/2008, -7/+24If by "married to the oil industry" you mean married to a field worker, than yes, yes she is.
- GoneGreen, on 08/30/2008, -9/+25You republicans are such ass-clowns, turn the radio and Fox News off and go slap yourselves in front of the mirror for an hour... that might knock some sense into you ***** clueless morons... unbelievable.
- yojayyyy, on 08/30/2008, -3/+19"For a man who is 72 years old and has had four bouts with cancer to have chosen someone so completely unqualified to become president is shockingly irresponsible. Suddenly, McCain's age and health become central issues in the campaign, as does his judgment."
Hey tcbishop12: Plagiarize much?
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/08/29/begala.pali ... - dbradley96, on 08/30/2008, -0/+16give this man a medal...he knows who the governor is in his own state.
/sarcasm - Kumah, on 08/30/2008, -1/+16Not anymore. That was the last one.
- ScoobyG, on 08/30/2008, -5/+20What? I mean... what?
- paradexes, on 08/30/2008, -1/+15If Scientology pays enough to lobby it then sure it can happen.
- ericjohnson0, on 08/30/2008, -7/+21And it is really cool that even though Hillary doesn't agree with Palin, she respects her nomination:
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/08/29/cl ...
“We should all be proud of Governor Sarah Palin's historic nomination, and I congratulate her and Senator McCain," Clinton, the first woman to win a presidential primary, said in the statement. "While their policies would take America in the wrong direction, Governor Palin will add an important new voice to the debate.”
Ah yes, Hillary can't wait for 2012. - MBellan, on 08/30/2008, -3/+17 Palin and her husband, says former presidential candidate Pat Buchanan , was a "brigader for me in 1996."
- Eslamicolt3, on 08/30/2008, -2/+16Aye! The most dangerous game!
- lopla, on 08/30/2008, -14/+27Insane McCain is an understatement.
- chmstar, on 08/30/2008, -1/+15You must be new around these parts.
- muckemuck, on 08/30/2008, -3/+16No.. McCain and the GOP KNOW Obama is going to win.. so they've got McCain at the end of his career with nothing to lose running, and now they've pushed a fresh young face up who can be lined up for the next go-round. It's not going to hurt her career..
- brianallenus, on 08/30/2008, -10/+23This is a demeaning pick for women, he is pandering to them to try to get there vote. The Hilary backers are smart people, they will see through this, and if they don't I think most will be scared off by the fact she wants to outlaw abortions. Palin being one heartbeat away scares the crap out of me.
- arcangelgabriel, on 08/30/2008, -2/+14My dog is better than Cheney.
- 4321234, on 08/30/2008, -2/+13It would seem McCain has others making the decisions for him. He changed his stance on so many issues to align with Bush's stance. And now the VP he'd never heard of.
I'll just take a shot it the dark and say it's the same guys who were calling the shots for Bush that are already calling the shots for McCain. - shadowmoose, on 08/30/2008, -3/+14Not to be a dick or anything but people are using the phrase"a heartbeat away from the presidency" way to much.
