akhalteke Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I would vote for him if he were running for president against McCain; or a lot of people for that matter. Too bad that liberals need a flamboyant and hip mascot to lead their team or they might have won this election. It was theirs to lose after the last 8 years...

dt_3pin Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 If you think Biden is more qualified than McCain, what are the policy differences between him and Obama that compel you not to vote for the D ticket? Or is your vote based on personality rather than policy? Just curious . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbw1966 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 as opposed to a candidate who plays up his POW status ad nauseum? The RNC spent more time talking about that than any actual issues or policy positions. Â If you think one party plays the image card more than the other you surely aren't paying attention.

Ahem Cough Cough  Not as far as the campaign is concerned. Or did you think McCain's laugher of a speech at the RNC was the cause for his bounce in the polls?

akhalteke Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 I think having a convention causes a boost in the polls. Has happened damn near every time either party has had one. Â You guys keep saying that Palin isn't allowed to talk and then say that she is the "leader" of the ticket. Â Make up your minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dt_3pin Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008  Palin is warming the bench; not leading it. Ahem Cough Cough  Is that why Senator McCain and Governor Palin will exclusively campaign together, with few if any independent appearances? Or is it because it would be pretty embarassing if Governor Palin drew larger crowds on her own than Senator McCain was able to draw? She's the rock star on that ticket. She's the reason folks are going to Senator McCain's campaign events, not because of his riviting boring speeches and wining creepy smile. She's further proof of Senator McCain's efforts to elevate personal naratives and devisive cultural issues over substantive policy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvashtarkatena Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I believe you missed the obvious irony of your own post, which you so often do, that Palin is most certainly a "hip and flamboyant mascot". You erroneously stated that the mascot leads the party, not your detractors, so you've been debating with your own statement like a delusional idiot. Â Look, either take the ADD meds or stop posting.

Next.  actually, he seems to be in the early stages of dementia to me. he does not seem that sharp to me, and it seems to be getting worse.  of course, Reagan showed that you could have dementia and still run a country (and be canonized by your party as well!), so perhaps there is no worry.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
