She should stick with her beliefs because what Obama camp and the media does not understand is that her belief is one of the reasons why she is so popular and Obama and Joe Bidden are not. It is John McCain's Pro-Life stance that attracted Evangelicals to him and when he picked Sarah who has the same values, the game completely changed. So the media is going to put her in a corner by making her think that the public will not like her that much if they can force her to deny her faith. Well am sure she is smart enough not to even go there and stick to her guns and deny God at this point because her appointment by John McCain, I believe is ordained by God. This is the same reason Bush won the second term in Office in addition to his handling of the 911 atttack. So Sarah please don't listen to them. You are in good hands with Evangelicals and God. Also, Sarah's response to the media should be that "It is better to be a good Christian in a good church where love and patriotism is taught all her life than to be a member of a church for 20yrs. where the pastor preaches nothing but anti-American and hateful messages against fellow Americans" I just want Sarah Palin to know that the media and Obama camp are trying to use her faith to divide her supporters.

It unprecedented that a major party candidate for a national position is being sequestered by party handlers and kept away from the press.

EVERYTIME A REPORTER TRYS TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH ABOUT HER THEY ARE CALL SEXIST. SHE IS SO FAR TO THE RIGHT IT LIKE SHE LIVING IN THE 40'S. WHAT IS HER STANCE I WANT TO KNOW. I DONT CARE ABOUT BEING A HOCKEY MOM OR ABOUT HER FAMILY WHERE DO SHE STAND. MCSAME IS NOT THE FITTEST PERSON IN THE WORLD AND SHE MIGHT BE PRESIDENT. BUT I THINK ENOUGH SMART PEOPLE WILL VOTE SO THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN.

He rushed into a risky decision on his VP pick without properly vetting her. And if that wasn't poor judgement enough - he lied repeatedly about her accomplishments. Now we're finding out all of the lies, stretches, distortions and exaggerations that we were told about her. If she had been properly vetted and introduced with honesty, we wouldn't be trying to sort through all this mess. It's just one more in a long line of poor judgements from McCain. Let's keep this discussion focused on the candidate - and how his risk-taking and poor judgement reflects on his character.
