She's not some dried up white guy with more money than sense who has no real grasp on the issues that face typical americans

So true, Theresa. All the pluses going her way.

I am thrilled and I need to get out of here. lol

Dont get me wrong, I am beside myself giddy that she is a woman. That makes me really really politically happy!

but my point here is she isnt being named because of nothing more than being a woman. Being a woman really is second to the fact that she is highly qualified.

THIS is what Republicans should always be about, this is the myth distroyer that republicans want to keep that glass ceiling in place. Repbulicans look around and find quality and more and more that quality is found in minorities and women.

Dems nominated Geraldine Farraro because she was a female. forget the fact that she wasnt qualified. she was just a Jr. congresswoman.

Dems put a woman on the supreme court because she is a woman. Forget that she cant chew gum and walk at the same time.

Dems nominate a guy who isnt qualified to chair a commettee in the Senate for president because he is a minority and can give a good speech.

Republicans find QUALITY and dont really care what it looks like.

"Bring out your dead" "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!" and last but not least "I'm a LUMBERJACK!" Yeah Michael Palin, THAT'S the ticket NOT Sarah!

P.S. she alread smells a little Clintonian to me in the charges of her firing a government employee because she didnt think he would get rid of her EX brother in law from HIS government job!

I fear this already is leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Kinda like rotten eggs! Now if this were MICHAEL I think the taste would be more like........

SPAM!

Explainable. The BIL was physically abusing her sister. Maybe not a good thing to do. But certainly not a deal breaker. No question the McCain campaign thouroughly vetted her.

If Sarah Palin puts a bad taste in your mouth, its probably b/c you are so used to drinking the Dems Kool Aid. It has destroyed your sense of taste!

At least I thought so....

but I'm very excited about this choice...PO, I know exactly how you feel. I'm actually excited to VOT

Classy move on her part to acknowledge Ferraro and Clinton.
