Partisan tunnel vision is quite easy to understand.
The very narrowly defined thinking process was clearly stated by Nancy Pelosi....if it is anything from the other party I am against it.

I like what Muncle said....she seems to be a real person.

And I do absolutely believe the farther away from Washington a person is from, the more real they are.

Experience.....what an elusive, shapeless, anything anybody wants it to mean expression.

It is a known fact in management accomplishment, the less a person is ingrained in a system, the easier it is to make changes because they don't know why it has to stay like it is...or has been.

As for the other chanting regarding change....why is all the rhetoric so all of a sudden more believable now than for the past 40 years? How about an example....let's see now...ahah...the energy crisis of the 70's and all the promises of how that was never going to happen again...energy promises by the thousands....accomplishment...zip...nada...more dependent now than ever..over 300% more dependent.
The promise of change is only lubrication in the form of pompous rhetoric.

I believe McCain's choice will prove to be very interesting and I'll bet disarming to many as the political tit for tat begins. It has been said Biden will have her for lunch during the debates.....I bet not.
She certainly does not have a Washington you-owe-me list to deal with.

Yep! I prefer a real person over a politician anytime.
