olyclimber Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 the real issue here has nothing to do with Palin and her family. the real issue is the clear fumble McCain has made in one of the most important decisions of his campaign. regardless of what you might think of Palin and her family's personal issues, putting them in the national or international spotlight like this was very poor decision. it is obvious that McCain did not give this decision the vetting he should have, this is when the focus is at its highest on whether he should be given a chance to run our country. now he has the Palin sideshow going on, and it isn't going to go away soon. even if Palin bows out to focus on her family, this is one doodle McCain can't undo, homeskillet. even with Obama promising to fire anyone in his campaign who focuses on Palin's family, the National Equirers and liberals who are not associated with the campaign will continue to bother her family.

bobinc Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I have a feeling Palin wasn't McCain's first choice, too. What could that mean if she does bail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlpineK Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 It seems like a situation that I can't imagine Palin wanting to get into. Her daughter and kid are going to be part of the media event should Palin become VP. Even right now chunks of the press will be pestering the poor girl and taking photos.

korup Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 (edited) wiki says, "Palin obtained her first passport in 2007 and visited members of the Alaska National Guard stationed in Kuwait.[42]" So, she had never left the country until ONE YEAR AGO??? And she wants to be VP? Are they freakin' joking??? Edited September 1, 2008 by korup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 getting back to why McCain really screwed up with his pick...undeniably one of the most important first decisions a person who wants to be President must make....which aside from teenage moms, name calling, and the real truth behind such dirt as "troopergate", is the REAL story: http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/ it seems that even Conservatives that initially backed the decision to pick Palin are calling for her to step down as they get to know her.

tvashtarkatena Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) Palin didn't have a passport until last year because, as she explained, she wasn't the type to get one from Daddy and Mummy after graduation so she could spend the summer in Europe. She worked all her life. Funny, I don't remember getting one from Daddy and Mummy, either. As I recall, the Federal Government issued one to me, and I travelled Europe with money I'd earned working my way through college.

tvashtarkatena Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) I'd hate to see Palin step down. She's Obama's greatest asset. And, she provides endless entertainment, as painful as it is to listen to her. Dan Quayle, an baffoon uncomfortable with his high position, never even came close to this woman, who doesn't even realize how much of a baffoon she is. McCain is extremely unpredictable and impulsive, so replacing Palin as a desparate, last minute attempt to re-invigorate his flagging campaign is a possibility, but probably a remote one. As for Palin herself...that woman's not a quitter. She can't be; she's on a mission from God.

StevenSeagal Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Nothing says experience more than being able to see Russia from her house. Or, at least, being able to see a desolate part of Siberia from an Alaskan island in the Bering Sea 1300 miles from her house. We can all sleep better knowing she's keeping an eye out for Putin when he comes creeping around Unalakleet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, while all you rich elitists were learning about countries and cultures by visiting them on mommy's dime, I got a much broader perspective reading about them at Wasilla McDonalds!

tvashtarkatena Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Katie Couric, beyotch! The most conscientious journalist the World Has Ever Known. How dare you? Given that the citizens af Blaine and Sumas are randomly chosen by lottery to negotiate US/Canada trade agreements, I think Palin's remarks about Russia have some validity. Why doesn't Palin ever mention Canada; a country with which her state actually shares a lengthy border? Perhaps she's not aware that its there....

StevenSeagal Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Couric: Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians? Palin: We have trade missions back and forth, we do. Seal skins and salmon between Inupiats and Russian whalers. Why, just last week she negotiated the giving of 5 caribou skins for a 17 year old girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
