McCain's big running-mate rollout

Romney and Giuliani helped supply Wednesday night's "paranoid" conservative politics, while Sarah Palin showed she's no Dick Cheney.

    Petty, Shallow Palin

    This was a joke right?

    I've never in my life heard someone talk so much, and say so little.

    Watching this convention and its delegates was like watching a lunchroom full of rowdy junior high kids- lots of noise and put downs but nothing of any substance.

    Here's a news flash for Palin- our economy is in the sewer, foreclosures are at an all time high, the war in Iraq drags on and on and sucks 14 million dollars a DAY after it, millions of Americans have no health care...and what do we get?

    Hockey mom jokes.

    But in typical GOP fashion- when the majority of Americans don't want what you're selling, just bash the Democrats who have infinitely more to offer this time around.

    Pathetic.
