1. McCain would have been better off
picking Paris Hilton because Paris sounds more intelligent than that fraud. If you don't know what a VP does then you should not be running for VP.

2. I don't remember who said it--
The VP has two jobs-- to break ties in the Senate, and to, every morning, inquire after the health of the President.

Do you think maybe McCain is trying to elect a Democrat?

3. NOW we know what McCain found in common with Palin ...
... he doesn't know anything about the economy and she doesn't know anything about the Presidency or Vice Presidency.

Doesn't sound like Palin will be ready on day one.

4. also... it sounds like this clip is cut short ....
... editing out Palin saying that she'd need to know how her being VP would benefit Alaska.

6. But Dan Qualye got elected
with a much younger president. So McCain's age has to make her a very dangerous person. Especially since she is so incompetent.

She'd be likely to want to "prove herself" as soon as she took over as President should McCain die in office. That and the fact that palin is so out of step with the rest of the country.

Dangerous dangerous. Though one could say that she is chosen because she was the only person willing to accept the job. Thus the GOP recognizes the election as lost in favor of Obama.

Then the decision of Palin is done so as to make sure the evangelical shits show up to vote for Senate, House and local seats. They know they can't win the Presidency so Palin is the "throw away" candidate.

i still don't completely understand her choice. Unless of course McCain wants a girlfriend on the side.

Yep. That's probably the real reason...

7. Well, I think one thing is for sure
She won't be finding the answer to that question.
