"Palin has skillfully navigated her way through the rough and often corrupt Alaskan political thicket..."

A beauty queen from the hicks with a useless degree and an ethics investigation. Wow that's risky - like playing football without a cup risky.

It's a good thing she won't stand for corruption. Oh wait. She is being investigated by the Alaska state legislature. That legislative inquiry in Alaska involves a call that Palin's office made to the state police recommending the firing of an officer who is a brother-in-law of Palin and in a child custody dispute.

Oops. Looks like another typical republican to me.

McCain is patronizing American women by thinking that we'll all just rush to vote for ANY woman. We're smarter than that. Especially when it comes to a woman who has no sympathy with the issues important to women. In so many ways, Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton. American women won't fall for this.

Wow, a 72 year old Republican chooses a former beauty queen, and hockey player who has posed for Vogue and is the mother of 5, to be his running mate. Talk about thinking out of the box. Must admit, actions speak louder than words, and for McCain, this move speaks VOLUMES.
What a fun election! After listening to Obama's 'same ol high on rhetoric and slim on policy' speech and revisiting his political lifer running mate, I thought all the excitment was over. WRONG!
Democrats need to be careful, blasting a woman without any arguement except 'we don't know her' is going to backfire

McCain, the womanizer, the guy who cheated on his hospitalized wife, the guy who uses his next one for her money, now thinks women are so stupid to not realize he is just pandering to them and using them again...for votes this time. Shameful.

A pro-life woman, a woman who doesn't believe the health of the woman should be considered, simply does not stand for women.

Nor is there anything independent about another big oil backed politician, who supports killing people overseas on behalf of big oil, while falsely advertising themselves as "pro-life."

Maybe McCain misunderstood when someone told him he should "tap the gov of Alaska"

Being a mayor and governor of anything certainly trumps being a "community organizer" of nothing.

And she doesn't hang out with terrorists, America-haters and racists. So that's a plus.

Did all you Obamabots get an email telling you to go online to deride Gov. Palin? Or just repeating what your desperate candidate's handlers have said. Either way it's too bad you don't have minds of your own. What a pathetic way to live one's life.

Yes, yes -- we already know that Obama does not like "bitter" small town Americans and women.

I'm GLAD she isn't Hillary. As for the no sympathy for women, look at her social issues record - and not from a DEM site.
