don't underestiamte the naivity of the average american... they elected bush twice afterall...1) I think many women are going to be offended rather than happy about this pick. Women are way too smart to fall for a gimmick like this. And they'll be pissed that McCain would even think that they would fall for it. When i saw her speaking on TV that night, she was talking about the glass ceiling and what not, and about how she would break through it for all women. And I just saw the look on McCain's face as he applauded with everyone in the crowd like "Ok ho, don't get too far ahead of yourself"
since when does the VP have budget resposnibilities?3) Her experience is extremely limited. She was the mayor of a city of like 5000 people. Governor of Alaska (who lives in Alaska?) for like 2 years. She didn't really have any experience with budget or anything. All she did was do crazy cuts to the construction budget in Alaska and raise taxes on oil companies to drill in Alaska and instead of saving the extra money generated, she sent out a check for a grand to every Alaskan resident. Sheeeit, if i got a $1000 check from Hitler he'd be my new best friend. So the fact that she has a +80% approval rating means nothing.
also what peopel seem to forget is that the presidents and vice presidents aren'T the driving force behind their policies, but their adviers. they're beeign paid to make up for the lack of knowledge and experience the president or vice president has. which is why experience really isn'T a factor.
doesn'T the entire GOP do that?4) Her positions on some topics are just stupid. She still thinks that global warming has nothing to do with humans at all.
itsn'T it all pretty much the same as bushs' positions? and didn't he get elected twice? so apparantly around 50% of the voting population agree with her...) Her positions on some topics are just stupid. She still thinks that global warming has nothing to do with humans at all. She supports abstinence-only education in schools, even though its been shown that safe-sex education works more to prevent pregnancy and disease. She thinks that we shouldn't have to rely on foreign oil, but not because she thinks we need to find an alternate source of energy but that we have more than enough oil in America to support our oil addiction. And she doesn't want to list polar bears as an endangered species, even though their numbers have been steadily dropping because of global warming, because she's afraid it would harm oil and gas development into polar bear habitats.
