However, Obama chose a very seasoned VP candidate. In addition, Obama has made it known that though Colin Powell is a Republican (moderate) he is welcome to serve as an advisor in an Obama Administration. Biden and Colin Powell are very skilled politicians and seasoned leaders. That shows the kind of wisdom Obama would lead with. McCain’s choice illustrates a man grasping for political expediency…and by choosing Palin, McCain can be said to be putting the nation in harm’s way, because Palin is very inexperienced and would be expected to lead the nation in the event of a national tragedy should McCain face some form of demise. In my opinion, McCain’s choice of VP is sufficient grounds to question his wisdom, leadership, and his foresightedness. McCain’s choice of VP illustrates that he isn’t looking much beyond election strategy. I see exactly what Powell is saying and I’ve been saying it for quite some time myself.
good for you. I am glad you have an opinion.


but lets get this right.

Obama is good because he is inexperienced
McCain is bad because he picked a VP who is inexperienced.

I guess that makes sense.

Oh and by the way McCain has a pretty solid cross over supporter in Joe Leiberman. It just seems that nobody really cares at all.

LOL!
