Many people were putting down Palin when she said
that she did not know what a vice president does. She was actually saying that she is used to running things like as mayor
or governor and not taking a back seat to things. At the least, her youth and beauty will energize McCain.
Sarah Palin was Miss Alaska 2nd runner-up. She got into politics, at first, just
to help her children. Palin went up against some very corrupt politicians and resigned from a committee to show her disgust
with them. But the truth came out, making her a hero. She is like the present day St. Joan of Arc.
Palin is tough, intelligent and attractive looking. She will make a great role model for girls. She has even been rebuked
for talking about the will of God in public.
She said that Obama made a mistake not picking Clinton as her running
mate. I agree. Biden said that Clinton was more qualified to be VP than he was. Clinton
got 18 million votes, just like Obama did. He should have chose her as running mate to lock in those votes for him.
When McCain announced Palin as running mate, Obama
said that McCain made a great choice. But he looked worried like these choices might have cost him the election. Palin will
get some of those Clinton votes. I was a supporter of Clinton, but now I support Palin. Will Palin get all the votes from
people who wear glasses?
I wish that Palin did not say that she stopped the bridge to no where. Now
that she has been interviewed about it and how it was already stopped, they should stop doing those commercials that say that
she stopped the bridge to no where. Then she could focus on going to somewhere over the rainbow.
She has more executive experience than Obama, McCain
and Biden combined. She has an 80% approval rating as governor. She is a governor, not a former
governor like Huckabee and Romney. It is ridiculous to judge her by what others around her do. To judge her on that, would
be like saying that Jesus was a bum because one of His closest disciples betrayed him and his closest disciple denied Him
3 times.
Obama is ahead by a little in the polls, but here is why I think McCain will
win. Many republicans may not be happy with McCain, but those Republican states are not going to vote for Obama. Gore won
the popular vote, but lost in the electoral votes to Bush. Besides McCain getting the Republican states, he will then be able
to get some swing states like Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
So the big question after McCain wins will be this. If Obama had chosen Clinton as running
mate and McCain had chosen one of the former
governors like Huckabee or Romney as running mate, would Obama had won the election? Obama made a bad strategic move
and McCain made a brilliant strategic move. McCain is like the Bobby Fischer and Obama is like the Boris Spassky. Fischer vs Spassky
Here is the strange thing. Obama did not choose his name, but he knows that people were
saying that if you change the 'b' to an 's', then Obama becomes Osama. Also his middle name is Hussein like Saddam Hussein.
But Obama did pick his running mate so it would be Obama-- Biden. So you change one letter in Obama and add 'nLa' to Biden
and you get Osama bi[n La]den.
Obama was the most famous celebrity in the world. But now with Palin on the cover of
Time and Newsweek, Palin is the most famous celebrity in the world. Talking about Palin, Obama said that Palin is quite a
phenomenon. The best part was that the news people thought that they had McCain all figured out. They thought they
knew who McCain was going to pick as running mate. Then he surprised them all.
