Apparently Senator Biden did not listen to the same speech that I did…or perhaps it was just too much to the point to suit him. Whichever, the democrats sure seem worried about someone they don't consider much of a threat.

By the way Senator Biden, got that VP thing in writing yet????

The Republicans LOVE Palin, she was a huge hit, and they will be fully supporting her and McCain. That's why McCain will win, Obama doesn't have the full support of his party.

Now Rep's have an answer to Dem's speeches. If you want speech for Speech, Obama might still win for All speech and no substance.

GO SARAH!!

Thank you, Joe Biden! The only punch Palin packed was in the gut of middle america.

Palin and McCain are trying some underminded tactics to win this
race.They use the excuse of Obama not being experienced enough,
well she isn't experienced either and she left her state in a mess,so
how can she help an old man that has a lot of health problems?He
might not make a full term in office.Is it a skin color problem with
Obama or is it that he is well educated black man?If the people vote
Palin and this nursing home material McCain in office we will go
down even faster in this country.They are for themselves and their
families,not the concerns of the country.Fatten up their pockets off of
the poor and minority.Republicans are the reason we are in the shape
we are in now.No more republicans to run this country.Palin this
third world country across the water shouldnt be able to come over
here to run for anything.The white house got rid of Clint for his closet
affairs so why should we vote for Palin,when she ca'nt control her
country and leave it in a mess,or control her family affairs?

Biden, if I was you I would have never made a crack like that. It is you and the pal you have joined at the hip with that have no style, no morals and no religious values. The day, if by chance OBAMA gains the White House with you, will be the beginning of the end for the free America we know. Our military will be destroyed and again we will run in the face of the enemy. You two have no clue as to how to fix the economy. If you did then surely you would have done something about it these past twenty-five years. Obama is waiting for someone to give him a clue he can copy from. Maybe he can beg Bill Clinton to give him a clue, but I doubt Bill will give him anything but the back of his hand. REMEMBER ONLY ONE MAN IN THE HISTORY OF A PRESIDENCY HAS BALANCED AN ECONOMY OF THE UNITED STATES, THAT WAS NONE OTHER THAN, BILL CLINTON and OBAMA you're no Bill Clinton!!!!!!!

I agree with Biden. Ms. Palin is unfortunately a modern-day Spiro Agnew. Why is the press giving her any credit ? This is not a person with the temperament or judgment to be in the White House.

Yeah, but guess what? Republicans can not only put a woman in the VP spot, their party even defends her against sexist media onslaught. Who knew the Republicans were going to lead the way in terms of gender equality.
PUMA

"Attacking her and her family are another."

If her family demonstrates the failure of her social policies, and if she continues to use them as a political prop, they're fair game. If she's going to keep pimping out her son and how he's going to Iraq on 9/11, she's fair game. Biden's son is also going to Iraq, but in October. Biden son is also the State Attorney General for Delaware, and his son has a college education.

Republican speaker after Republican speaker shamelessly blasted Michelle Obama. Cindy McCain, John McCain's divorce and abandonment of his kids, Sarah Palin's scandals, these are all fair game now.

She played to the other "flat earth society" members…
Would any intelligent person ever vote for someone who thinks the earth is only 5000 years old? I don't think so.

you shouldn't expect much from a lipstick wearing pitbull. she's good at looking sort of cute and throwing around insults but that's about it.

Palen's speach for the most part was just downright hateful……it looks like McCain has declared open season for dirty politics…..but it sounds like Biden is not going to stoop to their level……I so respect both him and Obama and in the end "decency will prevail over hate"
OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Biden's gonna have to really plagarize if he has any hope of coming close to beating Palin. From seeing all these comments, all you big strong libs and Dems, why don't you just come right out and say what you really mean, "Mommy, she's being mean to me." Never has there been such a vast influx of babies. And to the fine person on one of the other comments who listed Obama's and Palin's resumes (if you will), you left out a few points:

Obama:
Served of the same board as a proud terrorist who wanted AMERICANS to die. Is friends with same terrorist.

This same board wasted over 100 million dollars. True not a lot on a country level, but this was in Chicago.

4 years Senator for Illinos, a state with 12.8 million people. Been to 1 (ONE) committee meeting. Spent most of the 4 years dreaming about being president and being paraded around by Oprah. Of the '4 years' as senator, has spent maybe 3 months actually on the job.

The truth is this: Your 'messiah' has nothing to offer. No real experience, no change (unless you count all that will be left in our pockets if he wins).

I am so looking forward to October 2nd, when Joe Biden will be sounded defeated and the Democrat ticket will be further exposed for as the big bag of nothing that it really is.

It's actually too bad Hillary won't be debating Palin! As a Hillary supporter, I am really moved by Palin, and will be paying more attention to what she has to say! She may just move my Vote!

It's rather stunning that they dare to attack Michelle Obama for one comment concerning her pride-of-country she herself retracted when Todd Palin was a member of a secessionist party for 7 years…

I saw Biden on GMA and thought he was pathetic. I thought he was Obama's man not McCain's. He could not praise Palin and McCain enough. I could not listen to all of Palin's speech because the screechiing pitch hurt my ears. The right wing Republican's are a bunch of loonies but they will win again because they get all "fired up" while the Democratic candidates have no backbone at all.

She was exactly what she said she was a PIT BULL… on attack.

I am for Obama/Biden. They attack on the issues not personal attacks. And who to put down anyone for their charity works???? How low can you go McCain/Palin??? I didnt hear nothing on issues hardly at all during this convention… all I hear is attacks against the Dems. How childish!! We need someone who is going to fix these issues not just break washington.. I want to know exactly what issues are going to be taken care of???

I am for Dems all the way… Palins speech just sealed the deal!!

EXACTLY!!! So please everyone stop being so flabbergasted over Sarah Palin. This whole idea about her being super woman is beyond me. I don't get it. As a women from an inner city, I don't see the super power you all are giving Sarah Palin for caring for a child with down syndrome.
Unfortunately that's part of my world, I've seen these kids in my neighborhood all my life, and the mothers usually have a few more children to care for. So what's the big fuss about, I've known these strong women all my life and no one has done a story on them. Now it's news??? Give me a break.
Agreed Joe, all talk!

I agree with you on that note Senator. It was a bunch of nothing. No substance. The Republicans keeps avoiding the real issues. People are suffering, they don't have a plan for the invisible poor. Not one. They are telling the poor do not depend on government. Did they forget that there are poor people who will vote in this election. It's just that what they said made me so angry. Poor people are being drained and they don't care.

Hurricane Sarah really blew some foul wind last night, and as Biden and the rest of the world knows there was no sustance.It was full of war and hate and the usual Republican fear tactics.As per usual if you are not Republican you dont care about your country.The fear part worked because the world should be scared that she would ever become President which if McPalin ticket won,she would become President.Much like a hurricane after the scare and destruction Americans fight the good fight and overcome these nasty and dangerous events.It would now be America's moral responsibility to clean this mess up and do everthing in their power to stop it from happening again.This hate filled speech is you cue to stand up for the real America and show your future that you stopped hurricane Sarah.America is much tougher and smarter then Palin and she insulted every non Republican out there.
Stop hurricane Sarah
She is nothing but destructive !

Hitler was also a great speaker—how ignorant of the repubs to think that they could put just "anybody" up there, that can bat her eyes, and that make her Obamas equal?
Obama has been held up to a different standard then all of them…whys that?

Thats Senator Obama would "lower" taxes for 95% of Americans".

shes an empty dress

Obama News Network: Check your facts! Biden got WAY more votes than she did. Something like 78,000 for Biden before dropping out, versus 900 for Palin for the WIN! Typical Republican BS. They spew lies, and people take it for face value.

aw… I guess they werent listening to the earlier speakers like Meg Whitman and Carly Fiarona… there was plenty of substance I love how they cant dispute any of the attacks.

I also like how its ok that Dems spent time attacking Mccain and no one cries foul. Why Obama himself went on the attack yet no criticizes him for doing so… and his attacks were even disputed by factcheck.org …lol

Im getting much more substance out of the RNCC than the DNCC I dont think I heard details of policies Obama would put into place during the first 3 days total…. In the end Obama's speech was about how he was going to give away money… ie higher taxes for everything under the sun… lol thats not change thats regurgitated 70's liberal proven to fail policies….

Bush(best GOPer alive) never had any solutions to the problems facing our country so what do you expect from second grade GOPers like McCain and Palin

Tell it Like it Is Biden - We Feel Ya

Last day of the RNC Convention - YIPPY !!

Obama/Biden '08

The fact she called over 18 million supporters of Obama 'worshippers" is an insult to me. I worship God only but I care about the shape America is in because of the Bush years. She also belittled community organizers and they are people who actually impact the lives of American citizens who are in immediate need. She really needs to be careful in her speeches.

I agree, the speech was delivered well, but if you get to the core of it, the speech dripped with sarcasm, mocking and ugly attacks. I'm not surprised she gave a good speech and can attack with style but that she choose to do so may have been a mistake. I don't think she'll be able to hold her own in debates with Biden, and her inexperience will show.

I do wish the democrats hit her back over issues and some of the discrepancies in her speech, she dished it, now she's gotta take it!

Excellent response!

I am a real Democratic. For now on the Democrates should play loud and dirty regardless of who it is. The Republicans do not play fair and they won't. I want my Democrates to get real Dirty and win ithis campaign. We need to win. They talk about us and they can not speak on what their going to do for this country. When Repubglicans are in office the country goes sour; when the Democrates are in office the country is in shape. Again, DEMOCRATES NO HOLDS BAR!!! Let them no exactly what our plans are and what we will do for this country.

Shelanda Graham, New York, NY

Sarah Palin is a very angry, bitter young women therefore a dangerous candidate. As a Christian I was offended by Sarah Palin speech. She does not represent the Jesus I know and love. Nothing in her speech spoke of love, peace, unity, caring for those less fortunate; all of which are the basic teachings from our Lord and Savior. Out of all of the candidates, she scares me the most.

Obama - Magna Cum Laude - Harvard Law

Palin - BA from University of Idaho - Journalism

Biden - JD from Syracuse University
Masters in Poli Sci and History

McCain - 894/899 - Naval Academy

McCain/Palin - Worst Academic Ticket in History!!

It's true.

The Republicans screwed the country.

The Republicans have no solutions, because by screwing the country they're filling the coffers of the old white men who make up 90% of the RNC convention. They don't want solutions.

Since the Republicans have nothing to stand for, all they have left is attack. Attack attack attack their opponents. No new ideas, no solutions, just the same old attacks that Bush has been saying for 8 years and that Bush's speechwriter wrote for Palin to say last night. If Palin's speech sounded familiar, there was a reason. If you noticed all the little Biblical references to ring the Pavlovian bell for the religious right, there was a reason. Her speechwriter is Bush's speechwriter. Palin is more of the same.

Remember what happened the last time the Republicans put up a ticket with a governor on it? 8 years of Bush.

I agree with Sen. Biden and many other bloggers that tired of the same ugliness and hate from the GOP.

Palin's speech was all bitterness and no substance.

This is not a comment. I think you guys should get it right when you are covering a story of this magnitude. The city once and for all is not Minneapolis. It's in Saint Paul. How annoying is that when the media keeps mentioning Minneapolis. These are two different cities folks. GET IT RIGHT.

Ms. Palin is currently cramming for all those subjects Joe … she wouldn't know an F-150 from an F-35 without those handlers propping her up.

She's a quick study and she reads a teleprompter well but she's not the thinker behind the speech we heard last night.

Not only what Joe said, she also lied about being against Washington lobbiests. As mayor, one of her first acts was to hire a lobbiest and get $26,000,000 in ear marks. She also promised the people of Alaska to support the "bridge to nowhere" while campagning for Govenor and then cancelled the project but kept the federal money!

I THINK LAST NIGHTS SHOW WAS A DISGRACE. SHE BEHAVES LIKE A WOMAN OUT OF THE WILDERNESS. What a SLY FOX–a McCain clone. She and Rudy has shown Obama no respect whatsoever. And we want these CROOKS to lead our country. If any of you have any morals about yourself you will not go along with this joke of a ticket!!!! Pretty much, she put on a good show for the high and mighty. Republicans don't care about Americans, only the RICH AMERICANS. SADD THOUGHT IF WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH ANOTHER 4 MORE YEARS.

SEN Biden is right. For all of that reformer jazz the GOP is talking, there was no mention of how they are going to better the lives of American People. All of that rhetoric may have excited thier base but it did nothing to excite independents like me. I have now made ,my choice. Obama.Biden

Biden, how sexist! How sexist of you to criticize Palin, at al! It's just down right sexist! To say she didn't speak on any issue of importance! when its true that she didn't…that's just plain sexist! You sexist pig! To say she's gonna be a touch debator and you're gonna take the high road! That's just plain sexist! To say Obama has legislation to his credit, when Palin said he did not…that just sexist! Sexist sexist sexist!

That's being kind, Senator Biden. Here's the substance:

She thinks the Iraq war is God's war.

She believes in banning books.

She believes if you're raped you need to care the embryo that results to birth.

She flip-flopped on the Bridge to Nowhere but kept the hundreds of millions in earmarks.

She doesn't think global warming is man-made.

She is pro oil and Big Energy.

She's embroiled in a major scandal over using her power as Governor to try to fire her ex-brother-in-law.

I could go on.

Did she address any of these? Did she address any of the pocketbook issues?

No. Instead, she said things the Republicans wanted to hear, whether they were true or not. Like that Senator Obama would raise taxes on most of Americans, when in reality he would taxes for 95% of Americans.

Etcetera.

He's right. What about the American people? We are not falling for Republican scare tactics again.

No substance? Mad Dog Biden can dish it out but can't take a punch.
I heard the most pressing issues, such as the economy (in the form of the price of oil and no tax increase) and national defense both at home and by taking it to Islamic terrorists on the road. The problem is this choice of Sarah Palin took the DNC by surprise. They simply don't have any offense or defense for an intelligent, articulate woman of substance, character and integrity. Palin is the "rock star" of the Republican Party, but that distinction competes with Obama, so will never be used by the left media.

Careful Joe …you don't want your remarks to be taken as sexist! Seems you cant say anything negative about princess Palin without it being sexist in some way, shape or form.

Biden was smart enough not to talk about the Irak deployment day of his son. He even didn´t mention that his son is going to Irak. Different with the son of Gov. Palin. She told everybody about the day of his deployment. This is not the care a mother should have for her son. It is simply naive not to imagine that Irak insurgents will be keen to get him.

You tell 'em, Joe. This choice is so insulting to the American political process and all the candidates–in both parties–who debated, traveled, worked, and trained for the ticket.

Has Biden listened to his acceptance speech? He has a LONG way to go to be providing as much value as Sarah Palin did in her speech.

She gave SPECIFIC examples of what she would do to help Americans.

I'm proud to be able to vote for a Strong, Patriotic woman for the White House who is down to earth and understands the needs of average American families.

God, Family and Country = vote Republican

For everything else… vote Democrat

Thank you, thatk you, thank you Sara Palin!

My father jsut turned 80 years old on Aug. 1st and for the first time in his life is voting for the DEMOCRATIC ticket.

He said that after watching the convention last night, listening to Romney, Huckabee, Giuliani, and yourself, that he was finally convinced that the Republican Party is nothing more than an empty shell. He said that he heard NOTHING about how you and McCain plan to fix the economy, get the country out of debt, nothing on healthcare, unemployment, etc.

He even remarked that during Romney's tirade he did not mention Bush even once, simply because there is no defending Bush and his presidency, and that Giluliani has milked 9/11 bone dry. He was extremely disappointed by the hypocrisy of people like Romney and Huckabee since it was so obvious during the primaries that they despise each other and to hear them praising each other and McCain made him sick to his stomach.

He says that the entire program last night showed that when someone cannot run on their own postivie record that the republicans always resort to attack, attack, attack and that speaks volumes to anyone intelligent enough to listen.

Even my father, with his bad eyesight could deliver a speech that was crafted, written for you by someone else, practiced, staged and hollow.

THANK YOU SARA!

Sarah Palin is a good speaker and very attractive, but she forgot to mention a few things that her party has left on the country's plate: the recession and poor economy, the trade imbalance and jobs going overseas, the Federal budget deficit, the planet overheating and environmental disasters, the wasteful expense of the Iraq war, the decaying national infrastructure, the weakened international relationships, the violations of the Constitution in the name of 'security', the sub prime mortgage crisis, and on and on. The Republican scorecard based upon the past eight years is an 'F minus.'

this is a joke where we are celebrating a teenage pregnacy with the father "fiancee" being paraded out in front of america now he is a fiancee does he have a job? did he give her an engagement ring I did not see one on her finger! this is a joke she was pregnant at 16 years old while he was 18 in the southern states of america the toss african american children in jail for that. I am a independent but wactching the RNC the undiverse audience there I can only say I will carefully watch this for the next two months before I decide on a candidate.

Any idiot can deliver a speech that was written for them. The future of the United States of America is at stake here. We cannot afford another 4 years of sub standard intelligence running our country. The world is too dangerous now.

Senator Biden had it 2/3's right:

1. Palin's speech had no substance. Check!
2. Paliin's speech had considerable "style." Check!

But what Senator Biden left out was…

3. For many of us (this observer at least) the "style" was incredibly OBNOXIOUS.

Your campaigne has been running against Bush for 2 years now.
Your opponent is John McCain…let me be perfectly clear about this.

Sarah Palin doesn't have a clue…she should have, at the very least have added some of her own plans for America to her speech, but instead just blindly accepted the RNC negative attack version. This shows me hat she is not competent enough to be VP (or especially not competent to be a heartbeat away from being President).

Did anyone see the campaign buttons last night. Last week Joe Biden was called sexist when commenting on the qualifications of Govenor Palin but last night the GOP's campaign slogan was "The Hottest VP" "The Coolest State". If that slogan is not sexist in itself then somebody needs to redefine the term. Her speech was very well delivered but lacked substance. All I heard was security, war, less government, more of the same. If the government doesn't take action soon the corporations will continue to exploit the American People. If the government doesn't take action then insurance companies will continue to deny the neediest Americans quality health care. If the Government doesn't take action then the basic needs of our poorest of citizens will continue to go unrecognized. If the government doesn't take action then the education of our children will continue to be socially bias. Get the picture if you don't allow someone who generally wants to transform this country into the country that was outlined in the Declaration of Independence then we will continue to more and more of the same do nothing government that we have had in last eight years.

Good Bless America and ALL OF ITS CITIZENS NOT JUST THE SELECTED FEW

when government gives everything, they can take everything.

Has he looked at his running mate.

Joe is absolutely correct. I loved the speech. I thought is was written (by George Bush formal speech writer) and well delivered by Sarah. But where's the beef?

Well said, Joe. I'll add that her speech was written by Bush's speech writer and had the same divisive, antagonistic tone that continues to be the staple of our current administration. Speak really tough, squint your eyes and look constipated, but, say and, ultimately, do nothing. If that is what you loved about the Bush administration and you just can't wait to live through four more years of it, then cast your vote for McCain/ Palin. For, McCain clearly believes that his only chance at winning this election is to mimic the tone and substance Bush has set these last eight years. Anyone who didn't pick up on that last night, entered it voting for McCain anyway.

Well said Biden Republicans do not have anything to offer to the people in need, after eight years of republican failed policy all they have left is to divide people and hope to get another four years, big dream but not possible.

High ground, that is what I am talking about.

winning with honor

"Style but no substance" — sounds like a description of Barack Obama.

I think Biden should not come into this debate looking at this evil, lying barracudda as exactly that, a barracudda. Let's see how much she knows, after all there won't be a monitor for her to look at, there won't be a speech written for her to say, she will need to have the right answers and boy I think Biden is going to wipe the floor with her.

She is a NOBODY, how in the world can she stand up there and say the senical things they wrote for her, what a loser she is and she is being set up by mc ol geeser. She has open this door, lets hit her head on.

Her alledged soon to be son in law, Levi looked like he would have rather been any where else but at that convention last night. this is a joke of a family and this young red neck is being forced to marry this daughter of hers, he already said he didn't want kids, well I guess the shotgun wedding is on anyway, what a joke

Obama/Biden

Amen…that speech could have been given by anyone…and it proves that she's another typical politician…folks, she's a gimmick to cover up the lack of any true policies and change on the republican side.

That's right B…take the high road!

Come on Biden, is that the best response you got?? Her speech was full of half truths and lies. Who is going to point that out?? Obama chose you precisely for this reason, and looks like you are doing a real shoddy job.

CNN post this

When will the Democrats have something to say besides Bush,Bush and more Bush? The Congress has a worst approval rating then Bush, never thought that would be possible. I don't believe McCain will be more Bush, no one in their right mind wants to be like him.. The fact that they are both Republicans is true. That means some of their ideas will no doubt be the same. Obama when he has voted, voted the same as the democrats in Congress, 97% of the time, so shouldn't he also be included in causing this mess? I want to hear how both candidates plan to fix the current mess. McCain has proven he will work across the party line. What has Obama proven? He talks unity, yet show me where he has ever crossed party lines?

CNN, I don't see any report about Palin's aide who backdown from testifying under oath. Do you cover the news?

Palin is dangerous for this country. I hope Nancy Peloci and Co. will place her below the belt.

Joe,
I can't wait for you to tear this woman apart. Rip this hockey mom, half-term governor, 2 term mayor from Alaska apart.

Palin, it must be nice having George Bush's speechwriter by your side. You come off as pompous and arrogant.

Let me tell Sarah Palin about COMMINITY ORGANIZERS. They are the people who have "responsibilites" to the citizens who are suffering the most to gain basic rights, job training to improve thier lives and their families. This is done FROM THE GROUND UP…not from the top down.

If it was not for COMMUNITY ORGINIZER SUSAN B. ANTHONY, palin could not be where she is today.

If it was not for COMMUNITY ORGANIZER MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR., millions of Americans would not have to rights guarnteed by the costituion to be treated fairly and equally, regardless of age, sex, race or religion.

If it was not for COMMUNITY ORGANIZER BARAK OBAMA, thousands of citzens from the South Side of Chicago would have DIED from asbestos contamination in thier apartments, would have no job training and no hope for their futures after the steel plants closed and families and communities devastated.

I applaud the many people who unselfishly work to improve the lives of thers and most of the time without recognition. I am one of those people.

Sarah Palin, the gop puppet, has shown her arrogance and vulgar disrespcet for the spirit of community involvement in American History.

I am an independent and my take on her speech was dejavu. She reminded me of another up and comer speaking at a convention 4 or 5 years ago who was really introducing himself to the national electorate. We know him today as Barack Obama.

I do not think she should be taken lightly because I think the general image of Republicans is for the most part one of old white men. She may not win this time around but she could be the one to change the party dynamic.

And Senator Reids comment about her speech as being "shrill". That is a sexist term much like using the word "hysterical" when referring to women. The Democratic party is not without its old white men.

Kind of like all the speeches at the demos convention, alot of america sucks and we need obama to fix it, never say how. the repubs arent to different, it is pow, mccain great man to fix it, arent the point of conventions to make everyone feel good about everything? And demos need to remember that they arent running against W. and no matter how many times you say mcsame, or mcbush, or 4 more years of bush economic policy it doesnt make it true.

THIS WOMAN IS JUST DOING AS TOLD. IF ANY ONE SEE IT DIFFERENTLY IS BLIND. PUPPET………

OBAMA…..08

If I were Biden I don't think I would be so nice, but if anyone says
anthing against her they start crying sexism.

I will say she had a great speech writer, but she is still not qualified to be VP. McCain thought he'd get Clinton's voters…WRONG.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Lyda Green….Lyda Green…Lyda Green!!!!

Go on YouTube and look up Palin and Cancer. You will see the REAL character of Sarah Palin.

I can't wait to watch the VP debate. Biden is going to clean the floor with this puppet.

Hey, back off Sarah Palin/Maria VanderKolk…

Look what she had to say about our failing economy! Uh, oh, yeah! Nothing.

Oh, wait, wait, now just wait. Look what she had to say about our ailing healthcare system and how it has too many "special interests" like HMOs making healthcare all the less accessible for most Americans.

Why she said…uh…um…she said…uh, oh, she said nothing about that either, huh?

Okay, well, there's…uh…um…there's the housing crisis. You heard her. She said…uh…um…didn't she mention something about igloos? We could live in those, right?

Oh, she said nothing about the housing crisis, huh? Nothing.

Well, that's something to look forward to from McCain-Palin. Nothing. Just like the last 8 years. Yippee?

Go Joe! We love you!

And you are not going to hear anything about those issues. If the Republicans start talking about issues the would have to either; a) denounce the last 8 years or b) agree with the last 8 years.

Come on Joe you are asking them to shoot themselves in either the left or right foot. How would you expect them to walk around then?

That's right, all style, no substance - and it applies to the entire Republican convention - exactly what "change" are the Republicans and McCain/Palin ticket proposing? They don't say, because there isn't a good answer to the question. And as they don't have a good answer, the Republicans resort to their usual backup plan - attack with divisive, hateful speech, using sarcasm and vitriol. They don't speak at all to policies that will actually bring change, they obfuscate.

I don’t know about style. All she did was spew the generic republican mantra of lies and quarter truths. That "style" has grown VERY old over the past 8 years.

How about tackling some of the real problems that Americans face. Republicans are well aware of what they are, after all they created them. Yet not a word in any of the speeches from the RNC. Guess this would be a sign of how they would solve them if actually elected for a 3rd term. Just ignore ignore ignore. They have a great deal of practice doing that considering its what they do to their constituents.

Ahhh-Blowhard Biden-doesn't know what to do-Could the Dems be a tad nervous????-Yes it was just a political speech (and she had to deliever it just as BO had to deliver his speech in Denver last week)-we'll have to see what Gov. Palin does in the next 2 months.

But you gotta admit-she's shaken up this campaign season-it's fun to have "Interesting" people on the trail-remember Ross Perot???-now he was interesting-am I saying she's the best?-only time will tell-but let's give it some time….

Jesus was a community organizer…laugh if you will.

Gov. Palin's remarks were derisive, mean-spirited, condescening, and downright nasty. We do not need this kind of person as a spokesperson for our country, the USA, especially representing us to other countries. Also, I don't appreciate the Republicans thinking they are the only patriotic ones. I believe the Democrats are more patriotic than the Republicans because we care about the people, all the people. The lies that the Republican blogs and leaders have said about Obama are outrageous. Obama is a caring, hard-working, intelligent human being who will be able to negotiate with foreign countries and bring respectability back to the USA. Yes, we can!!!

Remember Joe she won the Gov. job with 114,650 votes and the Mayors seat with 1100 votes.

She is a real powerhouse at getting votes

I want to know why an unwed mother is to become a poster for McCain and co. Unwed mothers face big challenges, and the entire family is called upon to aid them if they are able to give aid. Many familys find that the burden is too much and can't afford to provide the health care needed as they have no health care insurance. One point that Palin never talked about health care for those that are in need. the Tax LIE was dropped like it was TRUETH. Maybe Palin thinks that the average blue collor worker earns over $250,000.00 a year. The fact the Obama said seveal times in his speach that only those making over $250,00.00 would get higher taxes shows Palin does not know what she is saing. by the way repeating a LIE doe not make it TRUE

I agree 100% with Biden! I did not hear, not one thing that convince me to VOTE for a McCain/Palin ticket, these attacks are not going to put gas in my car, give me much needed health care, nor get my kids thru College, please Wake Up AMERICA, we are being had, and in the end, if the joke is on us, then make no mistake, we are the ones to blame AGAIN!

Reuplicans know how to ATTACK, but not how to GOVERN!

And BTW, for those of you following Obama….yes HE DID attack her first. Love how you all have no idea what he's up to. He totally ignored her as the Governor of Alaska and belittled her as a "small-town" mayor the day before her speech, comparing what she did in Wasilla with his "experience" running his campaign. He's a fool and she gave it right back at him.

Can someone PLEASE ask Obama if he thinks Sarah Palin is "LIKEABLE ENOUGH"

Her talk is cheap, I havn't seen any polices plan put where their mouth is. PUT UP A PLAN OR SHUT UP.

The question is fairly simple. Do you prefer an administration which will spend hundreds of billions of taxpayers dollars financing different wars around the world and increasing profits of the weapons companies? If your answer is yes then you have a candidate to vote for.
If you prefer an administration which will spend hundreds of billions of dollars of the common people's taxes money to improve education, health care, social services, infrastructure and the economy in general, an administration which we use diplomacy instead of war you have a candidate to vote for.
The question is simple and so is the answer. The choice is yours.

I'm bothered by the nasty tone, started by Giuliani, then carried on by Palin. (via Bush's speech writer)

Palin didn't throw punches, she spewed vile in the best of conservative traditions.

I have yet to know who this candidate is. She has not earned the right to mock her opponents when she has yet to utter a word of her own. She even continues to lie about her position on the bridge to nowhere and other matters.

Where was anything offered about the economy or issues? It was an insult to my intelligence and a waste of my time.

Sarah, we hardly know you!

I agree. What are her qualifications? What exactly makes her a "Reformer"? — the Ethics Laws under which she is now being investigated??

I especially hate that she is playing both the Victim and the Pittbull. Choose which side of the fence you want to be on, Girly!

Who dug us down, Joe? I'm sure the Democrat-controlled Congress had nothing to do with it…

Biden is so right on target with his criticisms of Palin. I also agree with Reid that her delivery was shrill. Her sarcastic attacks on Obama revealed how little of substance the Republicans have to offer.
It will be interesting to see how she fares if ever allowed out on her own in the real world to face reporters' tough questions.

Joe be careful, they will say you are sexist. That is the new theme for the GOP. Give Sarah her due, she said what they told her to say and she did it just like they told her to do it. She is puppet #2 on that ticket, It is like McCain is Geppeto and she is Pinocchio, I saw her nose growing didn't you?

A hollow speech probably written by one of McCain golden boys who dipped his pencil in poison to impress the convention public, but it really shows the contempt for US social workers and other hard working people.

Good, but typically Democratic response. Republicans attack character, Democrats attack policy. Middle America (both political and geographical) understands character more than politics…unfortunately. Now this is not to suggest Middle America is dumb. On the contrary, character is important in being in elected office, but this has to be balanced with at least an interest in policy outside of tax cuts.

Senator Biden hit is right on the nail no substance. He had to be nice and say style but the Obama/Biden supporters that say what they feel. More of the same nasty attacks. At what point will the Republicans start talking about the issues and drop the Karl Rove tactics? They do get old you know.

Joe Biden is right! The GOP keep talking about national security, which Sarah Palin clearly don't have any experience in, but they never talk about our poor economy. They have not offered any solutions to fix the problems they created, just more of the same empty rhetoric.

NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MCCAIN & PALIN!

Obama/Biden '08

Joe,the DNC,Reid,Pelosi,Obama…can't HEAR Palin's substance.The DEM Party no longer connects with,respects,understands or listens to the MAJORITY of US citizens. 77% of the US population primarily work with our hands,have not earned a college degree(A,A,thruPhD) and we DEPLORE legislative shambolic partisan GRIDLOCK and we demand govt work for the people.The DNC dumped and rejected THE only viable candidate for Obama,the pretender. I HEAR McCain/Palin08,I'll VOTE McCain/Palin08. The Republican Party "GOT IT" and just in the nick of time for the revolution: the duty of the elected official is to SERVE the PUBLIC.

When Gov. Palin was questioned about her 17 year old daughters pregnancy, Gov Palins comment was we stand behind our daughter "choice" . Exactly what "choice" was that. It is my understanding that Gov Palin is against "choice" for American women, even American women who have been raped. Is Gov Palin stand against choice for all except her daughter. Obviously, she is against sex education, even at home.

Joe Biden is one of those responsible for our deficit. He's a spendaholic with no fiscal temperance.

Joe, you gonna beat up bad by this woman at the debates, I'd start being really nice to her.

As hard as it is to disregard the barrage of snarky one-liners the speakers at the RNC, especially Sarah Palin, shot at them…Joe Biden and Barack Obama are rising above all that.

I ask anyone who is excited about Palin, but on the fence about who to vote for…I ask you to think about the conventions and go to their websites, and ask yourself:

Which convention was hopeful and inclusive?
Which team is the best version of American politics?
Which team is in agreement with the failed policies of the last 8 years?
Which team has the most specific plans to change our country?

We have had 8 years of an administration that has snarky contempt for anyone who disagrees with them. The Palin speech was a new messenger, but the same message.

Palin is the new girl on the block and clearly likes to throw her weight around (note the pointing finger) and its to her detriment that she has chosen to sound off like a shrew. Her sarcasm and spiteful comments stand in unfavorable contrast to the balanced speeches by Biden and Obama and its clear why the Republican base are showering her with praise. She's another 'Bush' - plays the crowd, is all mouth and no substance.

She was great.

It was just a shrill, nasty attack coming from their pet pistol packin' pit bull with the so called lipstick on. No issues at all to say how the Republicans will try to help the American people other than more drilling in Alaska. Nothing about health care, education other than she was a PTA mom, big deal! Republicans may have been energized but I am not sure for what, they have no big ideas, other than the war in Iraq and winning wars, how about preventing wars.

What surpised me most of all was the honoring of the lad who made the teen age daughter pregnant just because he might marry her, what happened to those great Republican FAMILY VALUES, talk about the media using the children !!!!

Palin clearly represents the kind of individual the Founder's had in mind when they created the elected representative form of government.

Just as clearly, Biden represents the other extreme.

Obama—like the reek of stale cigarette smoke, the odor of machine politics Chicago-style hangs heavy in his clothes. I'm from Illinois, and believe me, he owes the Chicago machine bigtime. Send Obama to Washington only if you want see transplanted Chicago-style corruption take root in DC.

Snide. The speech was just snide and smug, without a single substantive policy argument. This is a would-be vice president? A person whom fate could instantly make president?

You know, I'm a "band mom" myself, and a pitbull attitude is the last thing our kids, their programs, or their schools need from us parents. They need specific ideas, careful plans, appropriate funding, support, and oversight.

A "pitbull" in Washington is hardly what this country needs, either.

She didn't speak about relevant policy issues because the repugs haven't had a chance to brief her on all that. They've been doing too much damage control in light of her many scandals that have popped up. I doubt she has any stance on issues such as health care and foreign policy, because the repug strategist haven't given her one yet.

She's just a pawn who is still being molded, whose image is still be twisted to fit just right, who they are trying to make more compelling and relevant than she actually is. My mom has a more compelling life story than this woman, but that doesn't make her an eligible vp candidate.

Palin wants to take on the roll of attack dog, I say bring it on! But, dont go purring like a kitten when you knocked out, equal opportunituy, remember.

Summed up nicely. The beginning of her speech was okay, but when she started the attacks, she lost me. You Bill O'Reilly said that one of the things Palin needed to do to be successful was not to attack Obama because she did not have the crediability to do so. I would have thought O'Reilly would have wanted her to attack him, but you know he was actually right this time. She may have stood up to the good ole boys in Alaska, but now she is getting ready to deal with the big boys and they will put her in her place. Her attacks on Obama has put everything on the table and its fair game.

I agree with Biden………….style without substance…….and when danger approaches……..sing to it……….and that' what her speech was all about……….Sarah's Song.

republicans have absolutely nothing to run on. They have accomplished NOTHING in their 6 years of control. NOTHING!!

They have nothing to offer. They have nothing to be proud of, so they create distractions from the real issues that we Americans are facing.

Don't fall for the nonsense and the diversions and the lies.

We must take our country back. Vote Democrat in November.

Well, I was a PUMA ready to vote for McCain until I heard that speech by Palin. Her comments such as "Al Qaida terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America, and he's worried that someone won't read them their rights" really have me worried. I guess the Republicans think "liberty and justice for all" is just for Halliburton. No way do I want to see this nut job near the White House. BTW, what's with all these commentators saying "great" speech. All the Dem speeches were 10x better than her stiff, contrived performance.

Stunning.

The Republicans are portraying Sarah Palin as a bit bull with experience. She even added the lipstick joke to punctuate that she is a woman.

Joe Biden is no slouch at taking an opponent to task. He's got a looooonnggg record of being outspoken and pulling punches is not his typical way of arguing. He'll attack with a fierceness of his own and, I expect, will be tagged as a sexist when he does.

This is a sham. John McCain has placed a person who can be both defended and unleashed at will right in the path of anyone coming after him. The Repubs are already cursing the media, democrats and anyone else who asks a question about her experience or policies. They form a wall around her reminiscent of Berlin, 1961…hide the truth and when someone challenges you, make the wall higher.

Ronald Regan did not end the cold war. He just happened to be in office when the Communists went broke. His foot soldiers weren't their with sledgehammers and ladders.
I tired of the "Regan Revolution" speak that always comes up during these elections. It only continues to prove that the Repubs are spending their time looking fondly at the past and have no clue how to design a future. The lack of substance in their speeches confirms that all too well.

Sarah Palin, you have accepted the nomination and the jobs that go with it. Your first job is to address the American people, not from a podium surrounded with teleprompters, but directly when they ask you a question.
We're still waiting….

A Bush-McCain speech writer. A teleprompter. Acting lessons. Anyone could have delivered that speech. But now the gloves come off. She must account for Health Care, Roe v. Wade, Iraq, Energy (besides drilling in ANWR), and the Bush tax cuts. Palin's no change. Just a mouthpiece. And when its all over and all is said and done she will be dumped.

Even the Republicans don't want an Evangeli-nut running the government. But they will use her to get the Evangelical vote out. Then send her to the sidelines.

That's because they have no answers…Enough!!!! 8 years is long ENOUGH!!!!!!

Everything she said about Obama was true, EVERYTHING. That can't be disputed. To those that say they don't know what McCain wants to do, don't know what his stance is on the issues. If you don't know then do us all a favor and take the plugs out of your ears and take the blind fold off of your eyes.Maybe take some time and look at McCain's web site. The info you seek is waiting for you in the most obvious place. The argument that her speech had no substance is just dumb. The speech was not written to explain the issues, it was written show the down falls of Obama's position's or lack of position on many issues. She documented Obama's bad judgment, his eliteisum, his stumbling attempt to comment on the Giorgia situation, his different way of talking in PA as opposed to CA, and the list goes on. If that is not substance than I don't know what you would call it.

Community Organizers.. hmm. I'm one.. I work to help build a stronger community through communication, funding and honor and care..

There is NOTHING and I mean NOTHING wrong with being a community organizer..

John McCain and Sarah Palin are out of touch with Americans.. They are divisive and I only hear words of hatred spread through the convention. They believe they are better than all other americans. They demeaned what ALL americans represent= Diversity.

I am sickened by the Republicans acceptance to down grade, exploit, vengeful hate and purposly divide our country. A country I love and which is meant for everybody..not just republicans.

I am voting for Barack and Joe as they are more intouch with reality of problems in the United States and Global concerns. They will strengthen our country through positve direction NOT hatred or war.

The republicans can be proud of nothing but more hate last night.

Obama/Biden.. 2008, 2012…

I was talking to a friend of mine's little 6 year old girl, and she said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, "If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?

She replied, "I'd give houses to all the homeless people." "Wow - what a worthy goal," I told her, "But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I will pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward a new house."

She thought that over for a few seconds, 'cause she's only 6. While her Mom glared at me, the little girl looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?"

And I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."

From a comment I read on another site LOL

McCain/Palin 08

If they had solutions for oridnary Americans they wouldn't be called Republicans. Republicans stopped being the party they claim to be (and used to be) years ago. If they were still the way they claim to be, I'd be a Republican.

A few months ago I went to the bank to buy mutual funds. On the chart where they show you how stocks do in spite of world events ( Great Depression, 9/11, etc) they also show what parties were in office in the USA and in Canada. I noticed that the economy did much better when Democrats in were in office in the USA and also when the Liberals (Canada's centre-left party) were in office in Canada. I pointed this out to the banking officer and she smiled and concurred. Isn't it amazing that the Republicans are able to convince people with lies like "tax and spend Liberals" when, in fact, George Bush, etc demonstrate that Democrats are way better at the economy?

It's similar to the fear that they keep spreading regarding universal health care about it being too expensive. Never mind that UHC is much cheaper than the current situation in America. The Canadian governments spends less per-capita on healthcare that the USA governments (counting all levels: federal, provincial/state). There is lots of evidence from the other developed countries that have UHC e.g. Canada, Britain, European countries, South Korea, etc). Everyone is covered and at a chepaer price. Why do you think so many Americans buy their pharmaceuticals from Canada? Yet the Republicans spread fear instead of facts.

Anyway, it is said that people get the governments they deserve. If Americans choose to be inetellectually lazy and listen to fear instead of facts, then long live Goerge Bush III, then IV, etc.

That's pretty funny considering who holds the number 1 spot on the Democratic ticket. Talk about style and no substance.

And what about the hole we've been in since the Democrats took over the legislative branch? I believe "Two Years!" was the Democratic campaign rhetoric. Well, your two years are up, and if anything, the country has gotten worse. Gas prices, the major influence on our economy, didn't make their astronomical jump until after the Democrats took control of Congress. And let's not forget that the Democratic-led Congress has the worst approval rating in history.

They used an unpopular war to get themselves elected and then proceeded to drive the economy into the dirt. Now, they want us to give them the White House as well.

Talk about smoke screens and lack of direction.

Which is very true, and fortunately most of America is quite aware of this this election cycle. She appealed 100% to the conservative right wing, which fortunately is not the majority of America.

Peggy Noonan was absolutely correct about McCain and his selection of Sarah Palin. What a cynical BS selection he made.

I didn't hear anything about family values from Mrs. Palin. I know why. I'm sure she has family. Values? That is the question.

Let' s see….drill, drill, drill. More energy in all forms. Get government out of our pocket books. Inference to life is sacred. Family values. Personal responsibility. Gee, none of this is substance. That is what is troubling about Obama and Biden. They are full of populism, telling everyone what they think we want to hear. Here is their approach - free college, free medical care, soak the rich, beat up drug companies, and hate big oil. Ok, let's get to reality. Free health care will destroy the quality of health care and bankrupt the USA, who in God's green earth declared that the Constitution granted free college to anyone (get a job and pay for it yourself), the rich already are keeping the govt afloat, and it just so happens that drug companies and oil companies actually produce the things we need to survive. Gee, it makes great sense to beat up companies that save our butts everyday. The tragedy to all this is that Biden and Obama have zero convictions, have no clue how the real economy works, have never had real jobs, have never had to comply with all the regulatory burden they love to impose on American companies, and would rather be loved by fickleless govts like the French and Germans (who are corrupt to the soul) versus standing up for freedom and democracy for oppressed societies of people (gee, Iraqi's), women, and children. It used to be that Democrats cared about other people but now what they really care about if POWER, POWER, POWER. They want to take my freedom away but telling me what I HAVE to do - have to participate in gov medical plan, have to send my children to govt schools, etc. etc. etc. It just goes on……. The democrats are about power and controlling your lives whiles Rebublicans are abot personal accountability, opportunity, and FREEDOM!!!!!

After listening to the republicans last night especially Sara's speech I got sick of listening to a bunch of bitter and ignorant politicians who lie and use fearmonger as a way to win an election without substance.

CONGRATULATIONS TO the Obama /Biden ticket you are on the way to win the presidential race by landslide without any doubts as Obama /Biden represent and embodies true democracy and respect for others.

POLLS WILL BE 65% FOR OBAMA/BIDEN
AND 41% FOR MCAIN/PALIN BY THE END OF THIS WEEK.

PALIN SPEECH WAS PITYFUL,PITYFUL,PITYFUL .SHE STATED NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHINGTO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE OF WHAT SHE PLANS TO DO.IT WAS THE SAME OLD POLITICS ,A CONTINUATION OF THE AST 8 YEARS .CAN,T WAIT FOR THE NEXT 4 MONTHS TO PAST .ANOTHER 4 YEARS WILL BE DETRIMENTALLY DEVASTATING TO THIS COUNTRY.IF THIS IS ALL THE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS TO OFFER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WE AIN,T SEEN NOTHING YET. WE ALL DESERVE BETTER.

Oh, please!!

After a week of attacks on her and her family. Gov. Palin just gave back a little of what she's had to take. I didn't expect her speech to be a major policy speech. It was a speech to rally the party. The blatant hypocrisy of the obama campaign amazes me to no end. They seem to love to accuse others of what they themselves are guilty of…

have one thing to say, the GOP convention showed itself as an exclusive, separatist organization. There was not one thing reflective of the diverse cultures in this country. It was like America walking backwards…

I am a single mother raising 2 children with no health insurance.
Sarah Palin was not talking to me last night.
The Republicans in their image and speeches shut out millions of us who do not look or sound like them. They do not represent me.

Right on Joe!

My dissatisfaction with Palin has nothing to do with her experience or personal story. I was disappointed that she chose to make her first appearance on the national stage so divisive. I am a lifelong Democratic and for the first time I am uncertain about my vote. I watched the Republican convention hoping to learn more what the Republican candidates would do for America, especially me and the other families that are living month to month on hope and pray. God, I don’t want to lose our home! When I woke up this morning I was thinking about how my kids don’t have new shoes to wear to school this year. Last night I heard little about an economic plan and just silly attacks about the other guys. I was so disheartened, it was almost a waste of my time.

Was anyone else expecting her to tell us how she was going to dig this country out of the hole that we are in? All I heard was how she is better than BO. It almost sounds like she thinks she will be president pretty quickly - does she know something about McCain's health that we don't?

The usual Republican bluster got Bush in office - she thinks it will help her too. Hopefully the rest of the country has learned that since it hasn't worked for the last 8 years, it sure isn't going to help to add 4 more of the same.

Obama/Biden

Her comments fit the hall and people that want to hear this kind of stuff. This was a easy thing to do. However, The Pres and the VP job is to speak for the country to other nations.
Pitbull in Lipstick?>>>>>>> North korea-Iran-Iraq-Russia?
We need a eagle to soar again, We want to look up again.

I would I have liked hear about healthcare and about how wrong it is to follow the failed plan of socializing it!

Couple things:
1. Sarah rocked. I've been dem in the past but I have to hand it to her.

2. Nice to hear people complain that she made negative statements "as if we didn't already know that". So what…Dems did that repeatedly last week - if you bothered to watch. She is supposed to be an attack dog and that is what she did successfully.

3. Sarah's daughter would most likely be covered under her parent's insurance as a dependent. Unless you actually think that a governor's family is not going to have some sort of insurance plan.

4. Selling the plane on ebay - sure it is not a national lvl decision, but it is a example of creative expense cutting and that she can actually see the unnecessary bells and whistles. A few of our leaders who prefer to fly their personal flags on their tax payer money bought private jets over the american flags can take a lesson in that.

5. Issues - she talk about energy, spending and managing a budget and presented a real plan on energery. Since when are those not issues?

The criticizers know she did well, will never admit to it. Fair enough. "It's not your good opinion [she] is seeking".

6. She clearly said the Obama did not "author". Co-sponsering is not authoring. It's attaching your name to and "sponsering" something that someone else did most of the work on.

7. Experience? I love how there are those cherry picking experience. Only 2 yrs…- don't forget time as mayor or being on the oil committee. This woman has been spending her time governing and making changes happen.

Sarah, you did great. For someone to call you Shrill for being fiesty and a solid sparring partner just means that cannot take punches themselves without whining.

8. Who are some of you to discount Alaska or Alaskans? Last time I looked at a map Alaska was still part of the union and Alaskans were still Americans. Shame on those of you who are basically saying that Alaskans don't count because they are farther away and have a smaller populations. Have you seen Deleware's population lately? Oh wait, they are in New England, so that is different.

What is wrong with some of you????

She has no substance because shes changed her mind so many times she doesn't know where she stands.Women of America are too smart to allow this woman to destroy us,along with McCain in their want for the pitty votes.She is no Hillary Clinton!!
Obama/Biden 08

He's exactly right. She was all attack and no substance…but according to the McCain camp, this election is "not about the issues".

Give me a break!

I STRONGLY AGREE WITH JOE BIDEN!

WHERE'S THE BEEF?
==================
SARAH PALIN SHOULD GIVE SPECIFICS ON HOW
SHE WILL HELP AMERICANS GET THEIR COUNTRY
(COUNTRY FIRST?) AND THEIR LIVES BACK ON
TRACK!

WHAT IS IT THAT SARAH PALIN WILL DO TO HELP
YOUNG UNMARRIED MOTHERS?

HOW IS SHE GOING TO ASK UNMARRIED WOMEN
OF CHILD BEARING YEARS, TO PRACTICE ABSTINANCE
ONLY, WHEN SHE COULD NOT EVEN GET HER
DAUGHTER TO ABSTAIN???

WHAT HAS SARAH PALIN DONE THAT MAKES HER
QUALIFIED ON FOREIGN POLICY?

WHICH WORLD LEADERS HAS SARAH PALIN
SPOKEN TO OR NEGOTIATED WITH?

WHAT DID SHE DO TO ADDRESS THE RECENT
RUSSIA GEORGIA WAR?

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME SARAH PALIN SPOKE
TO HER NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR'S RUSSIAN
LEADER?

WHY IS SARAH PALIN AGAINST EQUAL PAY FOR
EQUAL WORK? (unless of course, if you are Sarah Palin)

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAS SARAH PALIN REALLY FIRED
SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT IN AGREEMENT
WITH HER! (this lady is looking to help John McCain build
a Washington Administration of YES PEOPLE)

HOW IS SARAH PALIN GOING TO HELP AMERICANS
WHO HAVE LOST THEIR HOME TO FORECLOSURES?

HOW IS SARAH PALIN GOING TO BRING JOBS BACK TO
AMERICAN WORKERS?

WHY HAS SARAH PALIN NOT ONCE ADDRESSED THE
SITUATION IN IRAQ, PAKISTAN, AFGHANISTAN, IRAN
ETC.(after all remember this is a lady with huge foreign
relations experience..so she claims)

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME SARAH PALIN VISITED THE
SOLDIERS ABROAD?

WHAT IS SARAH PALIN GOING TO DO TO HELP VETERANS?

Folks I could go on and on but I think you get the gist.

BARACK OBAMA AND JOE BIDEN MUST NOT BACK
AWAY NOW, THEY MUST ENGAGE WITH SARAH PALIN
HEAD ON!

I was floored by Palin. And, I heard the words "reform," "family," and "integrity." This woman cleaned up Alaska, got rid of the hypocrites and liars (even the ones from her own party), and demanded standards from her staff. Obama, on the other hand, still calls racists, slum lords, and men with ill intentions close friends. I want someone who is going to stand up for what is right even when it is unpopular. Obama is just afraid to sever those money ties.

McCain/Palin will be a great team…and yes, this is coming from a registered democrat, whose entire family down through the ages always voted democrats. I am not someone trying to lead the message boards astray like you Obama supporters try to claim. I will scan my registration card and email to you if you need proof. I'm sorry dems, but you just picked the wrong man. I liked him a lot BEFORE I got to know him. The more he talked, the less I liked him.

Style but no substance! Be careful. Don't shot yourself in you foot. Barack Obama is much more so than Sarah Palin.

With all of Rudy Giuliani experience and he can't run a better campaign than what he did. Apparently, experience didn't help him. What a joke….

On Oct 2nd Biden will take Palin to school on national policy.

Forget the speeches, Sarah Palin should sit down with Tim Russert for just one hour. Oh how I miss Tim Russert, why did you have to leave us so soon.

McCain turned down an interview with CNN Larry King. I guess the sample questions were too tough so he pulled out. Maybe he wanted to be asked personal questions, what a joke for someone dreaming of being a future POTUS, it’s not a weekend barbeque at your cabin with the reporters.

Things will sure bottom out for McCain on Sept 1st Presidential debate with focus on domestic policy.

As for McCain strategy on Palin, keeping her away from the media will not last for long it won’t work for another 8 weeks, get real GOP. After last night speech McCain has to keep Palin on a very short leash so interviewers don’t get to her.

Wow, sounds a lot like your speech Joe. Just because you are the person who should be on top of your ticket, dont think that you are any better than
