Decide for ourselves.

I think Huckabee is really going to be pushed. I like Mike Pence!

There's been reports from those that were in the McCain camp that she has lied about many things in her book.

How can you - you aren't privy to know what really went on.

She was an exciting addition to the McCain ticket, which up to that point had been as boring as watching slugs cross a sidewalk, but she is not a political power house, and I don't think she has her priorities in line. I liked her at first, because she's a conservative woman with little patience for corrupt politics, but the more I get to know about her personally, the less I like. Sorry.

I can't admire her answers about childcare, and you still haven't said what you think about her family arrangement. (If you did, I missed it.) I agree that from a liberal POV, that should be a non-issue, but I want to know how she excuses that from a conservative POV. Color me old-fashioned, but I would be pleased if she focused only on light weight political activism until her children are grown, and THEN stepped back into the limelight.

You can't know her more personally if you don't read her book.

Her family arrangements - I don't have a problem with them. I'm extremely independent myself and always have been. What is so different from anyone else having a family in politics or a big family living in the White House?

You can weigh both sides and decide which side you want to believe - that's all I'm saying.

Everyone was wrong to some degree and some larger - both sides - Democrats and Republicans. The whole thing was handled badly and look what we have now? What difference did it make at the end of the day?

Personally, Schmidt seems like a jerk to me. JMO!

I want to believe her about the preganacy issue and how it was handled during the campaign. However, in the end I don't know for sure and that did make a BIG difference at the end of the day.
