An observation--Palin is all the evidence one needs of McCain's unfitness

[Skidmore]

for the Office of President. We dodged, not a bullet, but a nucular bomb this past election. He foisted her off on the nation and we're still experiencing fallout, and I disagree that her presence is a help to either Dems or the nation. She's a very destructive individual.

1. Don't you mean, "nuclear" bomb?

Or were you just channeling Boooosh.. :)

And, yes, I agree.. Palin as VP choice = irrefutable evidence against McCain.. file under "what the fug were you thinking"???

3. You just have to use RW spelling when talking about these people.

2. I think she is a big part of what cost him the election.

His trump card, until he selected her, was experience. He threw it away when he selected her. That and his proclamation that the fundamentals of the economy are sound after the complete financial collapse showed what an idiot he really is.

4. Those were biggies, that's for sure...

Also the crowd at his rallies put off a lot of people

5. Especially not when you are over 70 and have cancer

I totally understand why they kept Caribou Barbie away from the press.

6. I trust Obama's judgement -- most of the time,

anyway. I never did feel the same about McCain, despite how self-assured he is. When he chose Palin (or allowed her to be chosen for him), his character was cast into doubt for good.

7. his choosing palin simply reinforced what a clueless idiot he is. I have never had any respect for

the man, regardless of his "war hero" status. divorcing his ill first wife, being pals with charles keating, etc., turned me off ages ago.

choosing palin showed nothing but contempt for the women of this country--gee, hillary is out there, guess any woman will do.

johnny boy, it's long past time you retired to your trophy wife, your seven homes, and your private plane.

8. Dangerous how? More than 2/3 of Americans think she is intellectually

unfit to serve in the office.

With negatives like that, you're looking at a darn near miracle to ever get a national campaign off the ground.

Do you really think the people of Iowa and New Hampshire would foist this idiot on to the national electorate.

I just don't get the handwrining over her. She has already become a national joke. And this book of lies and ridiculous caricature coming out next week is not going to help.

9. And vice versa, by the way. n/t
