Simplistic, politically-uneducated Canadian take on this: (initial
thought) McCain is throwing in the towel and doesn't want to waste a
good candidate for the next election as his running mate, (second
thought) maybe they think she'll appeal to those who would have voted
for Hillary, (third thought) who talked him into this?
(these are my views only and do not reflect those of Canadians or dumb
guys in general)

My first thought was "HUH??!?!?" Then I looked up her bio, and I think
she's
someone the voters will really respond to. She IS middle America.

Until they stop and wonder what in the hell McCain was thinking.

It makes a complete mockery of McCain's pledge to select a Vice
President who'll be "ready on Day One."

....much like the guy at the top of the other party;s ticket.
I'm tellin' ya, the rank and file, the person on the street, the undecided
voters are going to like Palin. I really don't think, as much as the people
involved like to sling arrows, "experience" is a huge issue with the average
voter.











Dear god -- even his senior campaign advisor Charlie Black said,
"?She?s going to learn national security at the foot of the master for
the next four years."

Honestly -- was Palin the most qualified person to succeed him should
he not be able to complete his term that he could find? McCain met her
_one_ time in February. Christ almighty.

I'm sure she's an outstanding mother whose family adores her. But this
is one of the most irresponsible decisions I've seen yet this campaign
cycle.


***********************************
ummmmmmmmmmm no
the most irresponsible move so far is Obama asking (or is it demanding?)
that the justice department investigate people who say negative things about
him. Sadly, however, the media, and the Joebama followers will ignore tha,
becuase it's 'our guy,' so it's okay.






David Frum's the only conservative I've read today who makes sense
with the pick:

What this does is put the McCain meme about Obama's "inexperience" off
the table. Should he continue with that, he'll be laughed out of Dodge.



****************************************
That's true, unless and until they attack Palin's inexperience. THis is what
makes it brilliant, which was my original point. They're politicians. I'm
betting they'll take the bait, and, once they do, they can't say a damn
thing when McCain slings back.
