The reason(s) why McCain picked her are still up in the air, considering Palin's only experience is being the governor of the oversized igloo known as Alaska. And word on the street is McCain only met Palin once before for about an hour or so. The only good reasons for McCain's VP choice would be that Palin seems like she would appeal to many Americans because of something about her family... or that Palin's a woman.
Speaking about Palin being female, why does everyone like her so much more than Hillary Clinton? What does Palin have that Clinton doesn't? Even Obama's running mate Joe Biden admitted that he sucks compared to Hillary. As far as I care, Clinton is much more prepared and qualified to be vice president than Palin is. More on that later.
It was a bad choice on Obama's part to not pick Clinton as his VP running mate. Clinton used to be the First Lady, after all. She has experience in the White House. Clinton would have guided Obama and kept him from doing anything too stupid. And now McCain has the support of women because Palin is female.
Poor Hillary got bashed when she decided to not go to that event with Palin. Clinton worked hard to try and be president, and now it's all gone down the drain. I don't know who else would want to be in the same room with the person who got the chance they themselves did not get. For that, Clinton has my sympathy.
Speaking of that, why is anything negative said against Palin deemed "sexist"? You, the reader, possibly already think that I'm sexist for making this post. I can assure you, I am not sexist.
The reason for Palin being so immune to criticism is likely because McCain and his guys have make Palin the main attraction, and built some sort of shield around her to go with it. Palin's the Death Star, McCain is the forest moon of Endor, and the Republican party is the Imperial Fleet. By not picking Clinton, Obama has gotten the Rebel Fleet trapped.
Back to the thing about experience. Palin is nuts. I remember an interview a while back in which she said that if Russia invaded another country, the U.S. would go to war with Russia. To those who think Obama's the Antichrist, you haven't been paying enough attention.
That interview showed how horribly uneducated Palin is about the world.
Russia is a superpower. Russia has nukes. A war with Russia is the beginning of the end.
I guess being able to see Russia from her house isn't too scary.
A war with Russia was exactly what President Kennedy was trying to avoid during the Cuban Missile Crisis in the 70's. You see, back then, people were smart enough to understand the dangers that a war with Russia would bring. We're talking the end of the world, or at least a nuclear holocaust. Everyone would lose no matter what. You can't argue with that.
And to make things worse, Palin is pro-life and pro-war. You can only be one or the other, not both. You can't support things that are the opposite of each other.
Also, Palin has a family she should be taking care of. I don't understand how one can be a good parent if they are too busy to take care of their children. Or if her kids are on her mind, that could affect her decision making for better or worse.
Now let's talk about the VP debate from the other night. Don't listen to the media, the media's usually wrong.
Palin did not "win".
She was vague about how the Republicans would do... well, anything. Biden didn't give many more details, but he was more convincing.
She also used the word "maverick" a lot, even in her excuses.
"Bipartisan" is another popular word with Palin.
I was reading letters to the Daily News about the debate, and they noticed some things that the media completely avoided:
Matthew Landy noticed that Palin blinked a lot when asked questions. Blinking is a sign that you're lying.
Nathan Thompson wrote in that he had to explain to his 9-year-old daughter that "it is not acceptable to announce you don't wish to answer a particular question and then turn and talk about something else of your choosing."
Steve Mavrikis explained that Biden won because he actually answered the questions given.
Janet Marshall wrote in that Palin's "performance" was "hideous" and that she did not understand why Americans would "vote for such a ridiculous person." Then the reader asked "Haven't they learned anything since voting for George W. Bush?"
And Rich Japko said that he "wasn't sure what position Sarah Palin was auditioning for: vice president or Jay Leno's replacement" because of all the one-liners Palin had.
Biden won, the polls don't lie:
If people like us speak out more as Election Day comes closer, hopefully the nation will avoid the disaster the Republicans could bring for a third straight term. But before I end this post, allow me to explain what could happen. I'm not saying it actually will happen, but people need to be aware of it:
IF THE REPUBLICANS WIN- WORST CASE SCENARIO:
- McCain gets elected into office
- McCain dies soon afterward, Palin becomes the Commander-in-Chief
- Russia invades another country
- Palin declares war
- Both sides attempt the "first strike" plan (cross your fingers and hope you can launch all your nukes before the other country can)
- The radiation kills everyone
