One of his biggest handicaps is his age. So, he picks a 44 year old with virtually no national experience and only a year and a half as governor of Alaska to be a heartbeat away from being POTUS. Remember Dan Quayle? Probably others as limited that I can't remember. Old "potatoe" head? The difference is that GHWB wasn't 72 years old. Eisboch |

"Vic Smith" wrote in message ... I guess you never met a woman scorned. Obama dissed women bad, real bad, especially when he wrote Hillary off as VP right off the bat. 18 million voters. And "tough guy" Biden better remember what happened to that guy running against Hillary for NY Senator when he came over to her podium trying to intimidate her. Oh my. This is getting interesting. Obama didn't have the nuts to pick Hillary, and McCain has the nuts to pick this woman. But until we see how Palin handles herself, we won't know. --Vic I admit, I knew nothing about Ms. Palin. Just read some of her bio and apparently she's quite the pistol. It'll be interesting, but I think McCain's age factor will come into play more so now. Eisboch |

Palin is a right-wing nutcase. Hillary supporters aren't going to go for a woman who is anti-choice. Most of the Hillary voters aren't the left-wingers Obama got. They are older and more intelligent. But they are still women who want a woman on the ticket. Besides, the entire "anti-choice" stuff is blown up by pols on right and left. Does *anybody* think this country will ever go back to back-alley abortions? No way, no how, never. Oh wait, I hear a Dem on MSNBC - sounds like Wasserman-Shultz - trashing Palin up and down. They're already scared. --Vic |

For starters, GHWB was a smart, level-headed, experienced player on the world stage, with no reputation as a shooter from the hip. McCain is a hothead. I really don't know what to make of the Palin choice. There's nothing in her record that impresses me. Is McCain now going to change his position on Anwar? If I were McCain and wanted to pick a woman veep, I would have chosen Christy Todd Whitman. |

A lot of women will admire her. I already do for that. It'll be interesting, but I think McCain's age factor will come into play more so now. We shall see. But McCain has thrown a monkey wrench in the works for sure. --Vic |

McCain has no executive and limited political experience and has chosen a veep candidate with limited political and executive experience. |
