Re: Sarah Palin! Again!
OK, don't jump on me, and I don't think it was Sarah Palin's fault by any means, but I think her speech came off shrill and negative. I think the Republicans did her a disservice with that speech. When she spoke about herself, she seemed much warmer, but when she attacked, nostrils flaring, it just doesn't sit well. I would have liked to hear more about her and her resume to perhaps step in as President. Usually the VP is the pitbull, but in this case, I think they should have left it to John McCain. I think they would have had a much more winning ticket. Making her come off as so aggressive just opens the door wider and gives Joe Biden more leeway to attack back. The Republicans really should have been smarter about this.
Also, for a party that pride's itself on "family values" I think the buttons that read "The hottest VP were completely sexist. Sorry, I can't see it any other way.
I don't like her politics. Also, her daughter does become fair game when you realize that Sarah Palin is Pro-abstinence , against Sex Education and against abortion, even in times of rape or incest. I have a daughter and I wouldn't want this woman making laws that would affect MY daughter's life. She is against everything Hillary has fought for her entire career, so I know they will not get the Hillary voters.
I still think this choice was impulsive and rash and tells me a lot about John McCain.
