Ah the party of the open-minded. And how many liberals have you elected since FDR? Zero. Two moderates... one now being kept muzzled... and Bill being the only dem re-elected since FDR.
What a renegade... just lob insults when you can't refute on any substantial grounds. Typical of your ilk. When you lose, you can commiserate at another pot-addled love-in with your Britney Spears-staged American Idol candidate in Berlin. And blame the "Rove operatives" who dare not be blinded by the sermon on the Barakopolis. The conspiracy theorists have the paranoiac reaction that any disagreement must be planted in their midst... and yet call the link to Ayers dubious. Why did Obama resort to old-school Chicago machine politics to intimidate and block Stanley Kurtz from researching the Chicago Annenberg Challenge? Because Ayers is just a guy in the neighborhood Barak knew? An innocent english prof? Go ahead and "call me out" if you wish, because once it comes out this his greatest experience is at misappropriating funds, not even Biden's 36 years will prop him up. Want to write-off Palin and call it pandering? She's been fighting corruption within her own party in her time as governer, even lowering her own salary and ending "bridge to nowhere" spending. She has all the credentials to shore-up the Republican base. What's Barak done in the Senate aside from run for president? Does talking to Tony Blair give him foreign policy experience? He compares Russia's invasion of Georgia to our intervention in Iraq, and doesn't even know that Russia has a veto preventing the UN from acting. He has no credentials. Hers are stronger, as a VP. And once Slo-Joe puts his foot in his mouth at a debate and "exaggerates when he gets mad," you see if she doesn't appeal to women, and everyone else. Are the pick-and-choose Catholics, Biden and Pelosi, going to lecture her on a woman's choice? "Ardent" Catholics who misrepresent the Chruch's teachings? You have two of the three most radical members of Congress, and the best they can do is try and tell people that, from that vantage point, McCain's stance looks more like Bush's.
Looks like the revolutionary has been trumped by McCain's brilliant choice of Sarah Palin. Obama wasn't secure enough in his message of messianic change to pick Hillary, and went with someone to try and compensate for his total lack of credentials. McCain has the credentials and is now reaching out to the women left out in the cold by the dems. It was Nixon who said the first woman in the white house would be a conservative as a VP on the republican ticket. It shows McCain's confidence, and respect for the fighting spirit of Palin, and we can't wait to watch her show up Biden.
To be judged on character was the dream shared 45 years ago last night. Who's the embodiment of this dream? The man now being exposed for the shady squandering of educational funds and lying about his relations with radical terrorist Ayers?(http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=MTgwZTVmN2QyNzk2MmUxMzA5OTg0ODZlM2Y2OGI0NDM=)
Or the woman who took on corrupt politics in her state and chose not to allow genetic testing to affect her decision to have her downs baby?
To forget that Obama has a complete lack of experience.. and claim he doesn't really need it to be president... and vote for him because "we never thought we'd see the day" an African American ran for president, is to forget the call to judge by charachter and not by color.
And Sarah Palin is truly the historical choice who deserves to be there because of her character and experience.
