Palin go sit down. The only people that refuse to see thru your lies are racist supporters. Anybody w/half a brain knows that if you have to lie to get to the White House, you will lie to stay there. You are defeated.

I don't think McCain is particularly thrilled with his choice either. But at least he had no saying in it: it was imposed by his campaign to make him less boring!

i guess McCain is regretting his choice as well!

If Obama chooses Hillary, Palin is skinning moose in Alaska this morning and not as the VP candidate!

But, cheer-up, Sarah, you're going to have to answer for a lot real soon when the press has better access to you, and then just when you thought it couldn't get worse, you have to debate a skilled politician in Joe Biden! Will you be bringing "notes" to that, too?!

For the first time in her adult life, Palin was right.

How laughable – Palin arguing that Clinton keeping people in check on on the sexism issue "doesn't do [women] any good."

Does it do women any good to oppose a woman's right to choose an abortion in cases of rape or incest, like you do Palin? How about acting like some doe-eyed hick on the national stage?

I've always supported Obama, but Hillary Clinton has done far more for women than you could ever do, Palin. You present a serious risk of defeating the idea that a woman can be a competent and effective leader. Your competence level may suffice for a state like Alaska, but there is no way you would be able to lead effectively in the big leagues.

Sarah Palin is really talkin out of her rear end because if Barack Obama had of Picked HIllary she wouldn't be the republican nominee. John Mccain only picked her as political strategy, and to try to sway Hillary supporters, but we all see through Sarah Palin. She dosen't know anything, and her interview with Charles Gibson proved that. For heavean sakes she didn't even know what the Bush Doctrine was, and she thinks she has foreign nation experience because Alaska is close to Russia. Well if that is so I live across the street from Canada so I guess that makes me just as qualified as her when it comes to foreign experience.

NEITHER OBAMA or the DEM PARTY have the "testicular fortitude" for a woman in either one of the nations two highest executive offices.

DEM women are "kept in place" with a familiar battle cry that rings out every four years and sometimes in between.

This is not the party of Ferraro in the 80's. Women are expected to "carry the water, do the dirty laundry and iron the shirts" for their male counterparts. Don't beleive it. Remeber how they cannabized Hillary in the primaries for pushing too hard on the Obama button?
Remember Pelosi pushing for Hillary to quit? Nancy is Queen.

PALIN remember that LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS!! You gave out all the information on your son in the Military!! How STUPID is that. Hey and look at the polls now! They are coming back down to where they were before the democratic and Republican election! So what does this mean? PALIN hasn't made any affect on the Republican party except that the truth is coming out about her lies and her deceiving our country and people. You have to be intelligent as well as good looking. Looks won't help the polls for long! The only problem is… the media has to dig quickly to find out what the dirt is on you… however, it has helped since a lot of it was on the surface to scrap off so diligently. LADY… go back to Alaska!

Why don't you stop with the bitter talk for a moment and tell us what you stand for Palin? It doesn't seem that she is much for telling us what she will actually be getting done as VP. But then again, she did say she is having to be told 'what a VP does'.

Probably i'd be kicking myself too…To late Nobama!

I cannot believe the audacity of Sarah Palin to say, "I think he's regretting not picking her now." Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton that is for sure. They should not even be compared in the same conversation. There are plenty intelligent, well educated, well traveled, experienced, female politicians that could have been chosen for McCain and she is not a good representation of women. The vice presidential candidates have to be looked at as possible presidents and Sarah Palin scares me and I am a woman! The thought of her possibly running this country is terrifying! Has anyone ever asked Hilary if she even wanted the VP spot? No one knows that for sure.

THE NERVE OF OBAMA TO SAY McCAIN IS RUNNING A SLEAZY CAMPAIGN. WHAT DID HE THINKS HIS WAS AGAINST HILLARY? HIM AND HIS SUPPORTERS CALLED HER EVERYTHING BUT A WHITE WOMAN.

What is this garbage all about? It's just that…garbage reporting! It's brought up to try to break up the woman's (Clinton supporters) vote for Sarah Palin. More sleeze by the Democrats!

This is totally absurd. On what basis does Gov. Palin draw a conclusion about what is going on in Senator Obama's mind? He has said nothing whatever to justify her suggestion that he regrets his choice–in every way has shown that he does not. Why does CNN treat this silliness as significant?

Had Senator Clinton been the nominee, happened the Republican/Rove/McCain lie and smear machine would have tailored their approach to that reality.

If he had picked Hillary I would be voting for him instead of against him.

I'm betting McCentury is having second thoughts about his pick….

For all those supporting McChain/Palin

if you all are truly sincere, you would admit that if Barack Obama were fully white Caucasian, 85% of you will not be yakking on about McChain or cheering Sarah Palin like empty headed bums!!

The sad thing about America is that most of you dont get it! the free world is no longer the exclusive domain of pale skinned people. In fact, in less than 10 years, statistics show that White Caucasians will be a minority group in America, second to Hispanics!!!!!

You can all jubilate at your sudden "winning" status cos you got your own "celebrity" in Palin. You can keep lying, twisting the truth and confusing and deceiving Americans just to win the elections.

If it pleases God, Barack Obama and the rest of the diversity of nations and cultures will win in November

If not, your McChain and Palin Barbie will win…but guess what? in no time, you will soon come to know what it is like to be a "minority" in your own country.

And your candidates can do nothing to stop the trend

Hope you are all preparing for that inevitable…

as for the rest of us who seek true justice, fairness and equity for all men, we can wait…

Sarah, You should stick to offering advice/opinions about things that are above your pay grade. (i.e. how to shoot a moose or how to shoot a wolf from a helicopter)

Biden was, by far, the best choice for V.P. At least he is intelligent, experienced, honest and requires NO TRAINING (unlike McBush….oops…McCain's VP)

I am not a Hillary fan, but I have to agree she would have been a better pick for a VP slot than you were for the Republicans. Even with all of Hillary's faults (lying about sniper fire, for one thing) and baggage she would have saddled Obama with, you don't hold a candle to her. In other words, sweetie, YOU ARE NO HILLARY CLINTON!!!!

This is SO LAME!! It is another weak excuse to get women supporters woked up and maybe go temporarily insane on election day and vote for her and Senator McCain.
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!
The McCain campaign policy is very simple…
TALK ABOUT EVERYTHING BUT THE ISSUES!!!
I AM HOPING THE AMERICAN ELECTORATE IS SMARTER THAN THAT!!

It would not make a bit of difference if he had picked Clinton for VP. They would still lose this election.

That would have given Obama some credibility; probably would have been shown up to be more inept than he thinks he really is, though.

This witch needs to shut her trap. I am sure very soon, McLame and his people are going to regret picking the witch from HELL! I am so sick of her little stupid comments. Speak about the economy, you dummy! Speak about jobs, homes, the war, you are a disgrace to being a woman!!!!

Senator Obama may have not picked Hillary Clinton for VP. But is seems that every time Senator Bidden or senator Obama say something about Palin, they cry foul play or sexism. Not to mention the normal attacks and lies that come from the Republicans, I wish Senator Obama should switch VP’s and have Senator Bidden bow out right as the debate begins and have Senator Hillary come in and accept the VP.

At that point, Palin would have to go woman to woman and the GOP can not cry sexism or foul.

Senator Obama, I say do it, the republicans have lied for many years and have been elected for many years due to their attacks, and lies, this would be one play from the Democrats that would go down in History

You have my family’s vote!!!!!

It wouldent suprise me if Jo Biden droped out of the running for Vice President. And opens the door for Obama to choose Hileray to run in his place. Which I think would be a good choice. Every Man likes to see a women fight. What a rebate that would be.

America wishes the GOP would stop lying.

It won't be long before McCain regrets choosing Palin. Whoops!

Of course he did. Watch Biden get dumped in a few days.

Barack Obama was to conceited to pick Hillary.That said the winning ticket would have been with Hillary on top of the ticket, makes you wonder who will she pick in four years?

As a Democrat, it was so sad to see Hillary not be chosen as the Democratic candidate. Obama only won because of Rush LImbaugh's Operation Chaos and Obama winning the caucuses. All along we all knew it was Hillary's turn and Obama would totally fold under the Republican pressure. Now, we are seeing this happen. Thanks Dems, for 4 more years of Republicans.

I think this election will cause great damage to our national unity. I don't understand CNN and McCain. McCain should have had some respect in running against the first black presidential candidate. I'm white and I feel very sorry that McCain is putting SELF before country.

dear lord, she was picked just for this wasnt she? to get hillary clinton voters who are determined to get a woman in office. i mean its not like she has anything else on the table.

Obama, unlike Mccain, thinks about how the ticket will govern once elected. Mccain thinks about what kind of game can he play to make sure that he gets into office……….. you know, Unqualified, lies, smear, sleaze…………..

Ugh…Palin, give me a break, if Hillary was on the ticket, no one would know your name…you are a political gimmick and I sort of feel sorry for you. John McCain and Rove are using you honey…I really do feel bad for you!

Was that comment spoken in tongues?

All Palin is after is getting Hillary supporters for McCain… Cant her faith in Jesus prompt her on the right way to campaign other than smearing? I tend to think she is one of those christians who believe that since God is so merciful we can just sin as long as we will go to repent. So even though she knows what she is doing is not supported by her christian values she does it any way because on sunday she will repent. JUST LOOK AT THE DECISION SHE MADE IN HER PERSONAL LIFE….she eloped as a christian, she praises her minor child after fornication on the basis that she did not abort, she leaves a three months toddler for politics(men are fathers and women are mothers the two are gender specific roles and God ordained) she carries her toddler on stage to attract sympathy vote exposing the toddler to extreme conditions unfit for its age, Then CORRELATE THAT KIND OF THINKING AND DECISION MAKING WITH HER WHAT SHE SAID ABOUT RUSSIA AND IRAQ AND GUESS HOW QUICK SHE IS TO RESPOND WITHOUT giving it a serious thought that is not slow but not considered hasty decision!!!!!!!

I think she is entirely right. If he had it would not have changed my vote but it probably would have changed the minds of a lot of women and some men. I think Hillary Clinton would have made a good president but Personnally I would have not voted for Obama even though she was on the ticket. He is an eletist who hates white america , a socialist and has too many anti- american friends to suit me. I also did not like the fact that he called anyone along with his surrgoates such as Roland Martin and Bob Beckel and many more white uneducated gun- toting racist who did not vote for him. I will definitely vote for John McCain along with four other members of this house hold. Palin is the real deal and not just words.

and so what, either Hillary or Joe is an improvement over the lying Palin.

You're wrong Ms. Palin. Obama made the right choice for the country. Please go back to Alaska and look at Russia through your kitchen window. America cannot afford you.

Gov Palin has some nerve. Hillary took some hits, and bounced back and never wavered. Gov Palin ought to take her own advice and have the McCain/Palin campaign stop complaining about how the media is putting her under the microscope. Someone has to, it's obvious that McCain didn't vet her.

it's true that obama made an error,nothing can be done now.we must continue to support him as clinton is still going to win the white house.Mc cain will not be able to fix our ecomy.We don't need any war.Our country is in financial trouble,voters should hint at national interest rather than religions and other unimportant factors.Sarah is lack of experience,Mc is too old.Obama will be a good image the U.S. abroad.He will be like bill clinton.

Which is to say, she's glad Obama didn't pick Hillary because it created the political conditions that led to her selection as McCain's VP. Also, railing against earmarks is not an approach to government, just a cheap rallying cry; notice how she qualified earmark "abuse," federal spending will not substantially decrease in a McCain administration. Instead, you can expect them to torpedo one or two unpopular measures while diverting the money elsewhere, just like what actually happened in the Bridge to Nowhere incident. Joe Biden is a far better candidate, and neither McCain nor Palin know enough about the Constitution to preserve, protect, and defend it.

This woman just may be the biggest flip-flopper of all-time!

I believe there are bigger plans for Hillary Clinton in an Obama administration, whether it is a cabinet post, Supreme Court, Senate leader, etc.

This woman is such a hypocrite. I can't believe the American public will buy into this. The rest of the world is watching America! Get it right!

You bet he is having 2nd thoughts. I'm keeping my word though! I'm voting for McCain because Obama didn't pick Hillary!

I'm somewhat turned off by Palin's remark. Why would she think Obama would regret his decision? Because McCain picked a woman, and a woman helped his ticket? Therefore, a candidate who did not pick a woman would regret it? As a woman myself, that notion makes me feel a little bit marginalized– like Sarah Palin is just a token female for McCain. If that's how Hillary Clinton would have been viewed — as Obama's token female — then I'm especially glad she was not chosen (and I did vote for Clinton in the primaries).

That's Palin's pathetic attempt to pretend she is anything like Hillary Clinton.

Yeah, because Palin thinks that Obama puts "Campaign First, Country Second", like her.

The idea that if he picked Hillary for VP it would of been a better idea, they just don't get it. The Republican party has used Mrs.Clinton as their poster child to get out the vote for their conservative base for years. The mere mention of the Clinton's name brings the Republican to foam at the mouth. The Republican's hate Hillary Clinton and her husband, but it is so funny seeing them fawn all over her now just to get her voter's. No honor, No shame.

Obama can still go ahead to pick Hillary Clinton as his vice presidential running mate.

Okay, his not picking Hillary made McCain to take advantage of that and pick Palin as the one who for women.

But you know what? Biden can still drop out of the race for "medical reasons" and Hillary can step in
This is the only way to stop this Palin epidemic.
BIDEN DROP OUT FOR "MEDICAL REASONS" so the Democratic party can win. This must be done in this month of October.

I'm way past the point of caring what this woman thinks about anything. She has said enough to convince me she is totally unqualified and frankly, doesn't know enough about foreign policy to hold a meeting. To not have a clue what the Bush Doctrine is, and to say to her National Guard that they are going to Iraq to avenge 9-11 is ludicrous, to put it mildly. Even Bush doesn't trot that one out any more. Next we'll be hearing about the WMDs they found. Either she is stupid, or she really thinks the rest of America is.

Vote Democratic-the only people who have actually read and understood the Constitution.

Oh… You KNOW he does! But that was NEVER going to happen. He'd have to admit he NEEDED her (he does, but won't admit), and he's intimidated by intelligent women, and he KNOWS HE'S IN OVER HIS HEAD, hence his choice of Joe Biden! Which is hilarious because Biden is anything BUT change!

Obama's ego is too big to ever actually admit he made a mistake and should have chose Hillary. But he sure would like Bill and Hillary's help in getting him elected! He won't say no to that. He's a prostitute! He'll do and say anything to win. Even cozy up to the Clinton's now. What a fool. LOL.

she's a doofus. No, Obama doesn't regret his choice, but mcsame might do, in the near future.

She's a joke, she has no idea of what's going on and she's a liar!

She wasn't in Germany or Iraq last year
She DID ask and let search for EARMARKS
She didn't sell the plane at EBAY
and she did not make PROFIT
She was NOT AGAINST THE BRIDGE TO NO WHERE

So tell me folks, WHO shall believe in any of her words, now?

I think by the end of the election, the only candidate that will regret their VP choice is McCain. It's funny though…I think we all know IF McCain manages to win this year, he will likely be running against Hillary in 2012, and then all these flattering comments geared towards pandering to Hillary supporters will make great DNC ad's!

o bama lacks the good judgement as well as experience to choose a WOMAN……..BESIDES WHEN HE DID ASK ' 'clinton sAID NO…WAY i want to be on a winning team….where's that valid birth certificate NOT THOSE THREE FORGED COPIES….. check it out for your self AT obamacrimes.com YOUY'LL BE AMAZED/

I supported Hillary in the primaries and don't see anything but good in Obama's pick of Biden as VP. Biden certainly adds a lot of gravitas to the ticket. Bill Clinton said himself that Obama "hit it out of the ballpark" when he picked him. Hillary herself seemed to imply this was an excellent pick in her speech to the Democratic Convention. Hillary has already been de facto VP, and if she decides to run for President again, she probably won't have Biden as competition in the primaries. This is sort of similar to McCain's situation, where he competed with GW in '00, but didn't have to compete with GW's VP Cheney for the presidential nomination 8 years later.

AND JOHN MCCAIN (AND AMERICA) IS PROBABLY WISHING HE HAD NOT PICKED SOMEONE WHO LIES MORE THAN HE DOES. CUTE ISN'T WORTH SPIT IN THIS WORLD WE ARE LIVING IN. AFTER WATCHING AND LEARNING ABOUT HER OVER THE LAST WEEKS, BOY IS IT SCARY TO EVEN THINK OF HER PERHAPS HAVING TO STEP IN TO RUN THE COUNTRY SHOULD THE 72 YEAR OLD MCCAIN BECOME ILL. I PERSONALLY WOULD HAVE RESPECTED HIS DECISION MORE IF IT HAD BEEN LIEBERMAN OR ROMNEY. MCCAIN IS SUPPOSED TO BE A MAN OF HONOR AMERICA. LOOK HOW HE IS BETRAYING HIS COUNTRY WITH THIS CHOICE, AND ALL THEIR LIES TO THE PEOPLE WHO NEED THEM TO LEAD US OUT OF THIS MESS HIS PRESIDENT AND PARTY HAVE GOTTEN US INTO. MCCAIN/PALLIN, NOT THE CHANGE AMERICA NEEDS, BECAUSE WE SIMPLY CAN'T AFFORD THEM!

Pathetic. Palin is a tool. No matter who he picked, Obama is more solid on the issues than McCain. Palin's relevancy is coming to an end. McCain got whooped on the View, Palin got whooped in the ABC interview and now they are trying to recover. Hey McPalin, why don't you try debating some actual facts and social issues rather than these Karl Rove tactics. McCain, I don't care if you were a POW, right now you are acting like a dishonorable Karl Rove puppet.

Wow, Sarah's statement is basically an anknowledgment that bringing her onto the ticket is a blatant attempt to steal the votes of females who voted for Hillary. She and McCain object greatly to anything they label as sexism. But the reason she is on the ticket is sexist. They think that woman voters won't care about her agenda and policies and that all of HIllary's woman can be fooled into voting for someone who works against everything Hillary stands for, as long as that someone is a female candidate. Now that's sexism ! and both McCain and Palin are practising it.

As my Irish mother would say"Palin is some piece of work". Now she thinks for Obama like she plans on thinking for everyone of us . How the heck does she know if Barack is sorry he didn't pick Hillary. By the way we now have to flip-floppers for the GOP. Palin is changing her mind about whether or not there is global warming. Brace yourselves for more flip-flops. And, I happen to be very comfortable with Joe Biden. Barack would hve never picked him if he had any doubts about Joe.

Governor, you're NO Hillary Clinton – not even remotely close!

Obama/Biden

I wasn't even a fan of Hillary's and didn't vote for her but you Palin are no Hillary so stop pandaring for votes. And I trust Obama explicitely, he made a wise choice. Did it ever occur to anyone that Hillary may not have wanted the slot?????

I rather doubt it. Nothing against Hillary but Biden is the right guy. As for Palin…..liars like her should just shut up. The more Palin says the dumber she sounds.

NO KIDDING!!!!

Lost a lot of votes (including mine)… Bad move by B.H. Obama…

so this is all a game to Pain/MCsame….. Redumblicans think that BO was out to pick a running mate based on getting a block of VOTES…..is why they dont GET IT! O Made his first critical judgement as President Not one that can be Gambled with, you dont gamble with the country, the country takes a gamble on the Canidate for President. Does not sound like COUNTRY FIRST McCain! anyhow if Hillary had been picked, it would be want the Redumblicans wanted, and they be having a early Celebration…….. But the rest of the world is NOW, and will be on NOV 4th….. all because of Mcsame Gambling addictions, sorry Pain lin……. YOU BEEN PUNKED! same old McSame, Same old Politics

Obama/Biden 08 12

She's going to regret accepting to be McCain's VP choice.

Thank you CNN for FINALLY doing your job.

These idiots are actually about to elect this hack.

All what she can hope is to triger a new conflict in democratic party .WHAT A LOOSER SHE DOESN'T have anything to offer!!!!!!!!!!!! She doesn't won"t anything more but attention away from question WHAT YOU HAVE DONE !!!!!!!!!!!!! Shame on Mc Same .

Obama isn't smart enought to regret. His ego tells him he didn't need Hillary. Hillary should thank him everyday for that. I believe Biden wishes he had felt that way about him. This sooooooo much fun.

Oh, please! We all know that the Republicans would have been dragging Hillary's name through the mud and dredging up old history and lies to do so. This fake concern for her is just that:FAKE.

Besides which, Hillary would be much more effective in a Cabinet position ( Secretary of State, perhaps?) and some further role cannot be discounted.

go HILLARY 2012

NO WAY NO HOW, NOBAMA NOBAMA

The McCain campaign right away started "whining" about sexism when Sarah Palin was chosen by McCain as his Vice-President. This must have been the excuse for not letting the press vet Sarah.
It seems that the McCain campaign is afraid to let Sarah go out by herself – she is scheduled to be with McCain at his small town hall meetings. Why? She has a degree in communications. Perhaps it is because a Bush speech writer and Carl Rove cannot follow her around.
Sarah might tell the lie again about the Bridge to Nowhere that she first wanted and then didn't want when the U.S. congress didn't approve it. BUT, she kept the money she had already received.
We heard Senator Joe Biden this week in St. Louis County, MO – tell us Obama's plans for the issues of health care, gas prices, the economy, Iraq, world policy, education and more.
Biden is the one America needs one heart beat away from the presidency. Obama chose wisely.

How stupid does she think people are?

Anything that McCain, Rove, Palin, Guiliani say regarding what theDemocratic party should have done or should do is based on a calculation that saying "it" brings them an advantage.

In this case, Palin is trying to play to women with the comment. All the Republican women supporters of Hillary Clinton that were inclined to bolt went back to the GOP after she lost the Democratic primary.

Everything else from them is fishing with a worm as bait. No one is interested.

He picked th right person for the job. Instead of a political choice like McCain.

Small town mayor, hockey mom and now a mind reader too.

I think he' more greatful that he did nor ask Palin.

USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCain / Palin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bet Palin wishes she wasn't a liar and fake!!

Obama/Biden '08

I think Gov. Palin misspoke yet again. What she meant to say was "McCain probably wishes he pciked Clinton for VP."

Ya gotta love J. McCain. He self-destructs better than anyone.

palin soon find out the type of person mcain is and wish that she has declined his offer. God blessed her.

Hillary has repeatedly said she will do whatever ask for Obama to become president and she will work in whatever capacity. What part of that message the repubs do not understand?

The repubs are fixated with Hillary and yet any positive mentioned of her name is meat by boo. Palin is no Hillary.

Hillary is 100% democrat and Obama is her candidate, so, he must be president!

No more repubs in the white house.

Obama/Biden 08/12.

No… you wish he would have pick her, because you really don't want to be apart of the scandal, of the mc same bush game!

The McCain campaign criticized Obama for showing “zero restraint” given the storm and said “today’s attacks mark a new low from Barack Obama.”

I'd say that Obama and Biden have a long way to go before they get close to as low as McCain and Palin are in slinging mud in this campaign. If the media would talk about the McCain that the public doesn't know, Obama wouldn't have to say anything more, but for some reason that is off-limits.

Palin says 'perceived whine'. She didn't call Hillary a whiner. She's pointing out that others might consider her a whiner and it can backfire when people believe that. Nice try CNN.

He's not he only one who wishes BO had picked Hillary , Their are 18 million of us. Don't get me wrong we like Joe too but it sure lessened our chance of winning.

Wow….another attack from the McCain "pitt bull with Lipstick"…..gee, that's really funny being that John McCain doesn't even trust his "pitt bull" out on her own!! That's really behaving in a "confident" manner isn't it?

Wow…..she calls herself a pitt bull with lipstick and yet the McCain camp treats her like a little CHIHUAHUA! LOL… AYE KA-RAM-BA!

McCain MUCHO LOCO!!

If obama pick hilary she won't be there.. whats a nut

score Hillary: 18,000,000
Biden: 0

Could someone please summarize the Lies this woman had told so far!!

Only in rural white America can an uneducated, unqualified, no knowledge, LYING women be considered more qualified and a better representative for the job of President than a highly educated, extremely qualified Black man!!

If Palin was an conservative Black women, she would have been kicked off the ticket by now!!!

So, maybe Palin is right all along. She now has the ability to read Obama's mind – kind of like that beer commercial.

I think I'll stick with what Obama has to say and what Palin is unable to say without (two weeks of) handlers and cue cards.

McCain wishes he had selected Mitt Romney for VP!

McCain and Palin are now both saying how smart it would have been for Obama to have chosen Hillary. But, if he HAD have chosen Hillary, you know they would have been saying how weak Obama was and that he caved to the Clintons and her supporters. They would have said he "knew" that the only way he could get her voters would be if he picked her as his VP. It also would have energized the Republicans who were not excited about McCain to come out and vote against the Democratic ticket, when they might otherwise have just stayed home, since the Republicans (and, quite honestly, many Democrats) can't stand Hillary. It also would have angered many of Obama's supporters who thought that Hillary ran a really negative campaign.

Yeah and you Sarah are glad he didn't or you would be sittin in that plush office of yours in the Governor's office in Alaska where you could continue to fight for the very earmarks you say you don't advocate..what a joke!!

Obama/Biden '08

Sarah Palin should not even speak Hillary's name. She is not even close be being an equal to Hillary Clinton. Sharing a gender does not make Ms. Palin exceptable.

I LOVE THE CLINTONS!!! I JUST DON'T THINK OBAMA HAS WHAT IT TAKES!!! DEMS FOR MCCAIN!!!

MCCAIN 08

CLINTON 12

Palin probably wishes she'd told the truth about her "Thanks but no thanks" comment.

She kept the earmarks folks. McCain should have picked Clinton. At least that would have made sense.

Millions of us wish he had picked HIllary. Hillary should be president. She and Bill are the ONLY ones qualified to run this country now, in these terrible times. Be that as it may – Obama should have picked her. Because he did not pick her – McCain picked the most unqualified candidate (rather, the religious right picked her and told McCain she was his choice). These are terrible times. This is an election to get over with and fast.

Obama should have picked Clinton as his VP. Clinton is more experienced and has wisdom and knowledge more than Obama. He should have learned a lot having her around him but too bad he did not pick her as his VP. This shows his arrogance and bitterness. I could have voted for Democrats if he picked her but I am with Republics now.

sarah palin is no hillary clinton and obama made the right choice when he picked biden. he is smart and very wise unlike Mcstupid and will be using hillary clinton in one of his cabinet postions or a judgeship. poor old Mcstupid can't get it right.
barack obama is our next president because of his judgement and leadership. mccain is a man of many blunders and has no judgement and would be dangerous to the world.

Palin doesn't need to talk about anyone but herself. She still haven't explained any issues that she stand for. All she has done is rag on Obama and the democratic party. And whose camp wanted a apology from the democratic party about the lipstick comment? Who's whining now? Anything to distract the American voters. There is differently no comparison between Palin and Hillary.

Well…i'm sure that more than a few republicans are having a few second thoughts now that the Gibson interview is completed…be afraid…be very afraid…all the lipstick in the country can't cover up what's wrong with that picture…can anyone really imagine that woman sitting at the head of the senate..much less in the oval office..???

As for Barack..i'm sure he's very comfortable with his VP pick…a temperate..intelligent man with a solid character..

The GOP would be howling to the moon if HRC was the VP candidate…can you even guess how much negative mud and slurs they would be spewing with their rove smoke and mirrors machine..??

Throw the BUMS out..!!!

It is soundly agreed that Hillary was Obama's best choice for VP!

And, Obama did make an arrogant, foolish blunder in choosing Biden over Hillary for VP. It was his first big decision and he blew it!

So, we have Governor Palin, the new and rising star and team McCain/Palin the winners!

McCain/Palin 08! They will deliver the authentic reform Americans can believe in! And, they will do it with integrity!

What does she know? The more we find out out Mrs. Palin, the worse the smell.

I think a lot of people who had mixed feelings about how Hillary was handling the very bias (for Obama) media coverage gained an amazing respect for her by the time the race had ended. I was always for Hillary, but have heard many people who were either against her, or thought there was "too much whinning" from her campaign, drastically change their mind. There is NO DOUBT that Hillary is a force to be reckoned with, and that SHE IS AN AMAZING and Beyond BRILLIANT Woman! Obama did make a HUGE mistake! Hillary voter who is now for Palin! Palin is a beautiful, powerful, brilliant woman…I would be very proud to have her as America's VP!

I agree with Palin.

I'd would probably voting for Obama if he would have picked Hillary.

Look whos talking Queen of whinning. There is no way Hillary can be compared to Palin, Hillary is million times better.Hillary has done more for the American then Palin will ever do in her lifetime.

Obama, You need to steal the spotlight and put hillary on the ticket.

Be quiet Mooselinni!

What is she talking about? She is trying to win the Hillary supporters

And so now Palin has so much praise for Hillary….

It hasn't even been 6 months since she called her a "whiner"!

These ultra conservatives are being exposed for what they really are…

CYNICS, CROOKS AND LIERS….

yes he pickrd the wrong vp
one bad choose
and we want him hmmm
i dont think so
only fools vote for a fool

They are still trying to get to the Hillary supporters. This tactic is starting to get really annoying. I was an early Hillary supporter, but switched to Obama when Hillary started to pander and get obnoxiously negative in her campaining. Are you concerned about the economy? Are you without health insurance? Do you care about the choice issue? Are you a bit concerned about our declining standing in the world? Do you want competent, smart people running our government? These and other issues are important to me and I am voting for Obama-Biden.

Umm, choosing Hilary is hindsight. If Palin hadn't been selected there wouldn't have been such talk. And, Palin is turning out to be a joke. It will all work out…

Jeez Palin how pathetic! Are we now picking people based on gender?

You and Clinton agree on nothing politically! So do we pick running mates based on, "determination and grit and even grace"

This is why women like you make it hard for women like me! Say something intelligent please!

I bet McCain is wishing he would have chosen someone different too…

He isn't sorry. He didn't vet her. He is for CHANGE.

Barack was right not to pick HRC as his running mate because he wanted no fuzz and that is what he got. He really cemented and re-affirmed his base with Biden pick. Lot of people might not agree with me but history will tell. As to Sarah Palin, Senator McCain is showing how senile he is getting in every aspect. She might have now energized the republican base but she is a contradiction into herself, policies wise. And I am really skeptical as to her governing this country in a moment notice should Senator McCain unable to serve. I believe in separation of Church and State.

When will she learn that she doesn't know ANYTHING? She should just shut her mouth and be thought a fool rather than ……..(you know the rest of the saying).

yes whats new ?
all obama does is cry about this and whin about that
but for two years they have done nothing to help us

Give it a rest, Sarah. Senator Obama picked someone that he felt was qualified to step into the Presidency at any moment. Would that Senator McCain had used the same criteria.

sarah palin is a joke.

All that I have heard about Obama is that he thinks things out well and I am sure he gave a lot of thought before taking Joe Biden as his running mate..
Maybe what is meant is that McCain/Rove/Bush were trying to make him sorry he did not pick Hillary by picking Palin. Maybe she ought to think more before she speaks.. as most likely McCain would not have picked her, Palin if Hillary were picked for the Dem ticket…. could that be true?

how long do you have for wait for moderation

McCain should regret picking Palin for a running mate. So far she has showed herself to be a person to stretch the truth if not outright lie. She is lacking in ability to conduct an intelligent interview i.e. she paused several times as she could not answer or did not understand the questions being asked of her by Charlie Gibson . Displays a total lack for foreign policy experience. Did take earmark spending in her state; in fact more per capital that Obama received. Her lack of ethics in state affairs of which troopergate and releasing emails are an example. She is just the perfect example of what this country does not need an extension of the corruption that the Republican Party has been famous for the last 8 years. When Cheney gives his seal of approval and Karl Rove helps write your speeches anyone aware of this should take note and run from this woman.

CNN was doing a great job reporting on IKE and how it is affecting the citizens of Texas. Wht did they you have to mess it up to report on yet another Palin lie.

Is it just me, or did Sara Palin come off as extremely arrogant during her interview? She's being a little over-presumptuous to think the American people have decided this thing yet. Where is her humility? And for her to think she can simply kiss up to Hillary Clinton voters and that is all that it will take. I know the hard working, independent, free thinking, colorful, and intelligent women of the Hillary Clinton base are too smart for these somewhat silly antics. It takes more than a few compliments about Hillary's stellar legacy to lure us in. WE WANT TO HEAR ABOUT POLICY! And what I heard from the Gibson interview was a lot of bumbling and talking around the issues

Did it ever occur to anyone that Hillary did not WANT to be V.P.?

Since it's obviously a filler position that even a hockey mom is eligible for, Hillary will hold out for something better — and in an Obama Administration, she will be important in bringing about real changes.

I'm sure Palin is glad that he did not Senator Clinton because otherwise none of us would have heard anything about her, at least not as the VP nominee.

Palin really doesn't want to go in any direction where Hillary is heading! Hillary would chew her up and spit her out before she knew what hit her. I would advise her strongly not to ever get on Hillarys bad side!

I understand why he did not pick her, because all of the democratics idea`s came from clinton. obama agreed only, on leaving irag within 16 monds, more regulations on bankings, on intrest rates, and a lot of other idea`s. buth no one is saying that all of the political experts just don`t mention that. she was right on many things like NAFTA and obama was not i will vote like michingan and florida. UNCUMITTED . not Obama or Mccian
for hillary

We spent $61.00 at the gas station today and $35.00 at the grocery store. A package of crackers cost $3.09. We got to get rid of the people who are doing this to us. The republicans just don't get it.

Palin is a LIAR. Stop trying to pander to Hillary voters because you're the complete opposite of everything Hillary stands for. You are not an advocate for women. You subjected women who were raped while you were mayor to have to pay for their own rape kits and investigation! Before you became mayor there was funding in the budget that was allocated for that purpose and when you came into power you reversed it!

Given what's coming out about Palin, McCain is probably wishing he'd picked Clinton.

Palin is just trying to stir up trouble, of course. Since she doesn't really understand what a Vice President does (beyond, apparently, breaking china) she really has no idea what Obama was considering when he made his choice.

You see, Obama was picking someone he could work with in the White House, not just someone to improve his chances of winning the election.

I like hillary, but I love Joe Biden

Teamsters for Obama.

Women should be offended by the McCain campaigns attempt to pander to women. Palin is no Hillary. If McCain wanted to pick a woman for VP there were far better choices than Palin. The actual thought that she could be president scares me.

When she says we could go to war with Russia, she doesn't understand the implications of those words. Remember WWI started because of a little country called Sarajevo. Are we willing to send millions of our men and women to their death because of Georgia. I hope not.

hillary had good reason for sound like whinning,,she was railroaded all through the campain,,she was treated sooooooooooooo bad,dnc was so wrong for making the women of this campain feel they have to stay home and not run for a high office,,they think it's better for men to run this country,,now we have a fighter with john mccain,,we need more john mccain and palin in washington,less harry reid,nancy pelosi,joe biden,kennedy

Senator Palin will you please do not use Hillary to serve your own agenda. She is a real woman who knows what she is talking about.

Stay calm Sarah, after Novemeber 04, we are sure to return you back to Alaster with a token of appreciation in stirring John McCain's campaign.

Obama 08

I am concerned about the Wall Street Journal article.
Clinton-Biden "08

Leave it up to the democrates to mess up a sure victory over pride.

now she is starting to sound like sen. Obama, repeating what everybody knows and taking credit for the revelation

Joe Biden is the best person for the job of Vice President. He is a real person who understands what the american people are experiencing.
We need Hillary on the supreme court.

Do you think Palin realizes that if Obama had picked Clinton, Palin would still be an unknown in Alaska? I doubt it, she and she alone seems to have a pretty high regard for herself. At least she will be going back to Alaska permanently in November!

Caribou Barbie, you're no Hillary Clinton, and you never will be. And if any whining's being done, it's by your campaign; your team is trying to make up for and distract from your lack of knowledge on foreign affairs, the economy, and everything else of vital importance this election year.

By the way, nice interview with Gibson the other day. If you don't want to be knowledgeable of anything else, it might behoove you to at least know what the Bush doctrine is (you know, Bush, the president, member of your own political party). Get a clue.

I think McCain regrets not selecting Lieberman.

How do we know that Barack Obama never asked Hillary Clinton to be his VP and was turned down?

Joe Biden is an excellent choice and is a true gentleman and a leader.

I would bet that McSenile wished he would have picked Hillary now with Sarah the lair on his ticket of course he has done his share of lying. Connie from Indiana

I thought that remark was totally snide and to my fellow women who are voting for McCain/Palin soely because she is a woman…………I am embarrased to have you a member of my gender. This woman makes me angrier and angrier.

If Hillary was Obama's running mate, McCain wouldn't have picked Palin!

Hypocrite!
We've all seen you lambasting Hillary last spring!

Folks, don't buy what she is trying to sell. There is no genuineness in this candidate.

I don't believe you need to be talking and thinking for Obama. I'm sure he has good plans in the future for Hillary and who knows if she even wanted Vice?

Stop injecting your views for what Obama thinks and doesn't think?

On the contrary, John mcCain probably wishes that he HADN"T
picked Sara Palin.

It is all starting to come out now. What I want to know is how every singel one of you Republicans can now sleep withourselves at night? What the GOP has done is falt out lie over and over. You guys did in in 2004 with a honest white male veteran running for President but not this time!!! Enough is Enough by god. Let me tell you all something, you better hope this race is not close or does not come down to one state hanky panky like in 2000 because this time I predict there will riots in the streets and in the RICH NEIGHBORHOODS all across america! It will make the 1960's look like a schoolyard fight.

Sure isnt going to to do you no good slamming Hillary, she is twice the woman you are. Hillary and Bill will help put the democrats in the white house. You wont even be able to go out in public after the trooper deal. America is learning fast what kind of person you are and you think just cause John can slam and attack Obama you can to. Just remember it will be a task of god to not let you two win this election.

Has Palin now become a mind reader too?

She's a lot of hot air and no real substance. She's identical to Bush. She didn't even know what the Bush Doctrine was!!!!

Has she been alive these last few years??

Whatever-

Palin regrets she's not a real candidate…

Like she wishes she'd sold the jet on ebay? Like she wishes she'd actually gone to Iraq? Like she wishes her campaign wasn't built on a pack of lies?

probably might be, but he can do it without her anyway.

If Obama is about change in DC why is his VP pick someone that has been there over almost 40 years????? That is real change.

He could have picked Hillary and than that would have been some change.

It's probably true that Clinton refused to act as BO's VP nominee. She already said publicly that he is not fit to be president and she didn't want to spoil her chances of being president one day, herself.

I think we need to remember WHY we have been screaming for change from the Bush policies. Obama is accused of being inexperienced. Keep in mind that Bush supposedly had experience and look what we got. I believe that it is more important to have the intelligence to get the best advisors and to lead the country out of the disasters of the Bush administration. McCain has said proudly that he voted 90% of the time with Bush. Doesn't that bother anyone? Do you want more of Bush? Are you better off now after Bush's 8 years?
More and more people are losing their health insurance. More and more are losing their jobs and their homes.Banks are shutting down, and we have a loss of respect from our allies . Think Katrina! 5 days on a rooftop waiting for help. Heck of a job Brownie!
The many many soldiers who were killed because Bush lied us into an unprovoked war and many without their limbs and being rationed by our government on the care they get. We have more and more homeless vets and their families. Republicans vote down benefits for the vets. They were sent over there without the proper equipment and were told they had to buy their own bullet proof vests. Suicide deaths are at an all time high Have you heard of any improvenments to Walter Reed? Do the vets still have to wait months and some years to get medical care? Do they still have vets waiting in a wheel chair for months and the hospital does not even know they are there?
Do you still want the administration using the "executive privilege" to cover their secretive sneaky unlawful deeds? Isn't it strange that this Iraq war is suddenly winnable and the gas prices are coming down? Do you think the election has something to do with it? Think of your children's future.

With the deepest admiration and respect for Hillary Clinton, I urge the folks who are posting for McWhatever and Gov. Don't-Have-A-Clue in '08 and Hillary Clinton in '12, please consider the fact that if these Republicans are elected, none of us may even be around in 2012! I am confident Senator Clinton will serve as a major and important Cabinet member with Obama and that she'll have another chance, but please, please consider the consequences for voting Republican this year — something Hillary herself has specifically asked you not to do. McCain and Palin represent the opposite of Hillary's values.

Obama for America!

I wish that McCain had picked someone that knew what they were doing, and not a bobble head emty suit.

Let the lies be heard! Thank you for freedom of speech, CNN! The American voters need to wake up! If Palin and McCain lie to the American people now, can you imagine the amount of lies we will hear IF they are elected? Republicans, Democrats, and Independents…UNITE! Vote for Obama!

No, Palin and the Republicans wish he'd pick Clinton. That would have been the worst mistake Obama could ever have made. And can't we have a single news day without a Clinton story? They're out of it now, aren't they?

Maybe so.. but Obama picked the person he felt would best compliment him when it comes to actually helping the country. McCain picked the person he thought could win a popularity contest.

First Palin says Hillary is the biggest whiner in the country, then she says how much she admires her strength? WOW! What a joke.

I am a republican and had the chance to listen very closely to this interview with a very open mind.
It reminded me of interviewing a job candidate. When they had exp you see and hear the depth of their answers. I am very sorry to say that I did not see any depth in Palin's answers. I now very concerned about her being the VP Pick and being a heartbeat away from the presidency to 72 yr old cancer survivor, whose father died when he was 71 yr old. I am also very startled by the lies from Palin that seem to be disproved independently almost on a daily basis. We have been life long republicans against abortion, gay marriage but this time we are going to have to switch our vote to more intelligent and safer choice-the democrats for President.

You know what? If I want to hear such biased articles, I'll turn to the DNC's website.

All you are doing is infuriating voters in general and women specifically.

WHO IS WRITING THIS "NEWS"?

Obama has picked a VP who he thinks will provide the best guidance in various areas including foreign policy for the US. Mcain in my view has picked Palin because he wants to get into the office at any cost.
Hilary Clinton would never ever make a comment the kind Palin has made about God. There is something scary when a VP nominee says that Iraq war is God's will on a global stage, it absolves people from personal responsibility of any kind especially in similar situations where death is involved or tragedies are plenty. Give me a break — Palin has no knowledge of any kind on foreign policy — I can at least say that Obama will think through things before making any decision and that decision will certainly not be God's will.

Hey fool,she did not say Clinton was whinning. Can't you read a whole paragraph before running off at the mouth.

She said what all of us was thinking, even Biden thinks so and said it while promoting Obama at a rally.

What Ms. Palin doesn't seem to realize is that Obama and the Democratic party would rather make a VP pick that would help the American people in this critical time in our history, rather than make Machiavellian political ploys meant to distract the American people from the real issues, which is what the McCain campaign has done by selecting Palin.

Sounds like the Republicans would rather lose America than lose the election.

Don't be foolish, we would not know of Palin if he had picked Hill. The ticket does look good though!

Thats not COCKY at all

And McCain, I'm sure is still fuming that he couldn't pick Lieberman, who his own staffers say "was his first choice". Unfortunately Johnny McLame has sold out his "maverick" status and is praying he can mudsling his way into the white house

Nice attempt to appeal to Sen. Clinton's supporters, Sarah, but we prefer substance to celebrity…..issues are important to us.

palin should tend to her underage mom to be daughter, and take care of her special needs baby. the gop is a joke. this is supposed to be a great mom?!! really!! oh my goodness, if this is all the gop had to beat obama, i feel sadden for this country of ours. this is worst than what rove has done. the gop is making a joke out of the great us of a. i see why counttry's hate us now.

I disagree. You are happy that he didn't pick her because that opened the door for Palin to get picked by the Republicans.

If Obama had picked Hillary, the Republicans would not have needed Palin, because nothing gathers the Rep. base like the Clinton Name.

I am still confused how people blame Obama for sexism against Hillary. Please provide specific examples.

Also,either way Palin will not be the next VP./ Joe Biden will be.

The are so desperate. The "new" McCain campaign direction backfires 3..2..1…

I don't think Senator Clinton needs praise from Sarah Palin. Am I the only one who realizes how presumptious a statement that was? Does she compare herself to Hillary Clinton? Does she think those who supported Senator Clintin will support her because she's a woman? That's about the only thing these two women have in common. She redefines "chutzpah" I think Joe Biden was a fantastic choice for Barack Obama! His extensive Foreign Policy experience balances the ticket.

She is soooo full of it. I'm sorry, but people who vote for this McCain/Palin ticket ought to get their heads checked.

And you want to be my Vice President. Sorry, no vote for you!!

Obama/Biden '08

How would she know?

Sarah Palin is an insult thrown at the American people.

The truth will show the true character of McCain and Palin. The following is is not speculation, these are FACTS about John McCain and Sarah Palin:

McCain does not support equal pay for women.
McCain voted against increased protection for women subject to acts of violence.
McCain voted against women’s reproductive rights legislation 126 out of 130 times.
McCain supports overturning Roe v. Wade.
McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin, is anti-abortion under ANY circumstances, even cases of incest and rape.
McCain opposed spending $100 million to prevent unintended and teen pregnancies.
McCain opposed legislation requiring that abstinence-only programs be medically accurate and scientifically based.
McCain opposed Title X, the nation's family planning program.
McCain opposed requiring insurance coverage of prescription birth control.
McCain opposes comprehensive sex education.
McCain supports the "global gag rule" against family planning programs abroad.

america vote for real people not puppets. see, she just confirmed what i had been hypothesizing all the while, she is a mere distraction to the elections and a vote-winning-machine…not a proponent of change as she says, but a harbinger of more bad tidings.

for all you ex-democrats-in-the-name-of-clinton…you should all be ashamed, you are as shameless as Mc-Cain for making this a gender war instead of facing issues, just as RNC candidate makes the election about wars and sleazy details instead of issues…

Thats coming from a Nigerian, and i don't care what ya'll say about we africans, its becoming more obvious by the day, we got better brains just bad leadership…really, i wish we had an Obama that can inspire a belief in the people that things can be made better through harmony not discord..

Besides, I am more educated than all the idiots that will discredit my post…one note, I ain't bothered cos i ain't gonna be voting your doom.

She is NO Hilary Clinton, not even close. And her comment is smug and arrogant just like the rest of her comments-she has too much confidence. For someone to "NOT BLINK" when asked if they wanted the vice president job is a scary sign. A thinking person, an intelligent person who cares deeply about our world, and thinks about the big issues would blink MANY times and give a great deal of thought of whether the job was for them and they were ready for the job. Her Clinton comment is transparent, just like her.
Regarding Hilary, I am disappointed she has not spoken out against Palin. Palin does not represent ANYTHING that Clinton stands for. It bothers me that she lets it go-it does not have to be a "catfight"

Just politics…Palin is being told to play the game. Let's stick to the issues for Pete's sake.

Obama-Biden 08

And we certainly want to know HER opinion……………please.

Or, more likely, he wishes he had taken her up on the suggestion that he run on HER ticket as VP, and wait until his turn next time around.

Palin knows Obama's mind more than she knows about the economy. This is crazy. War with Russia, God-ordained war in Iraq, for the bridge before against it, troopergate, oh Charlie….in what sense…LOL. get lost, lady.

Palin should concentrate more on beefing up her knowledge of foreign policy instead of mind-reading.

Obama/Biden 08

Guess what Sarah, you have a big mouth , most of which comes from it is lies ! You are running for the second most powerful job in the free world. Dog catcher would be a better vocation for you ! Poor animals! You'd probably have them shot ! Your views drag American women back 100 years ! Beauty is only skin deep and when you use it to win votes, don't you dare call anyone else sexist ! John McCain and the Republicans are using you for precisely that ! You obviously don"t have any other attributes that qualify you for the position you are running for ! And another thing , you wanna play with "The GOOD OLD BOYS " as you derisively call them , then expect questions vetting and criticism !! By the way one of "THE GOOD OLD BOYS " is your running mate!! I for one, see who you are very clearly Sarah , and frankly, you scare the hell out of me !

But it's okay for your campaign to whine? Not only whine, but close you out from the media and put up official campaign ads crying sexism? YOU, NOT HILARY are the one who is doing women no good. Picked only because you're a woman, is this really how we want women advanced? Hillary would have been an excellent pick on her merits, accomplishment, and true achievements on behalf of women and the country.

You, Ms., are a mockery of the entire feminist movement.

when the phone rings at 3 am do we want a hot hed to answer no . obama 08 BECOUSE TERRIBLE TEMPER MCAINS RISKS BLOWING US ALL SKY HIGH . JUST LOOK AT HIM LOOSE HIS TEMPER ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL WITH THE RUSSIANS HELL LEAD US INTO A NUCULER HOLOCOST TERRIBLE TEMBER MCAIN . OBAMA 08

What if Obama is Planning to give an even more IMPORTANT position to Hillary?

Obama should have chosen Hillary,I think he will regret it on elecytion night. Women are not stupid. I don't know what he was thinking.Not about the country. I blame the super delegates for not doing their job.

Why do the media keep giving Palin airtime?

and i bet u mccain did wish he'd he 'd pick someone else who was like hilary? cause u are no hilary,

Well thank goodness that such an unbiased, seasoned national politician weighed in on this extraordinarily relevant issue…. *Yawn*

You are so right. His sexism and party honchos held him back. Now he regrets it, but too late. The democratic party and media held Clinton down and Barack pushed her down, allowing Palin to rise.

Too bad. If the dems lose this election, they have the good ol' boys to blame.

What a joke. If Obama had made the mistake of picking HRC, then we can be sure of a few things. 1. He would lose the election, and 2. no way Palin would have been chosed as McNuts running mate!

Palin's popularity is the only reason this idea Obama regrets picking Clinton is even coming up. Remember–McCain needed to overshadow Obama at anycost. Obama VP is fine—his confidence in Biden as a vp then and now is because Obama is putting his country first. Unlike McCain taking the risk with Palin to win a votes

"Man (?), that doesn't do us any good…"? I tend to agree with her, but then her fellow campaigners have been whining about the lipstick remark. Palin had the taxpayers paying for a $700 a day room for her daughter and also for all of her family. McCain then came forward saying that she has spent less than her predecessor. Is that the measuring stick?

Palin does seem to take issue with pig remarks. Not with pit bulls, though. Interesting… pigs are more intelligent, actually.

Obama did what he had to do and to think she Palan was selected for her knowlege is misleading. She was picked for being a WOMAN the only reason! She does not even know a thing about real issues! Of course you can mimmick anyone.

McCain answered his questions with dignity and poise>To mention he got nailed by the View is inappropriate.Barbara Walters with all her experience sounded like a rookie in Television,iterrupting John Mccain all the time even without finishing his statement,he had to even plead with her to ask her to let him finish.It is time for her and Larry King to "Retire with Grace" than rather make a fool of themselves.

I wanted Obama to pick Hillary. Too bad. Now I'm for Sarah !!!

Go Sarah !!!

Gibson asked her and she answered. she didn't just bring it up in conversation. Why don't you say it that way CNN.

I completely agree with governor Palin. As a matter of fact, Obama showed a weak judgment by choosing Biden as his running mate. Joe Biden admits it himself, that he is not the best person to be on the ticket. This is an alarming message to America and the rest of the world. Obama shows he lacks the judgment and the management skill to run the country.

Obama has big plans for Clinton when he is elected president.
She will be a strong team player in the democrat white house yea

What has happened to the wonder boy? How about this for a scary statistic: Barack Obama is polling worse than John Kerry did four years ago. Currently Obama has a projected 275 electoral votes, McCain 250. In 2004, Kerry had 317 to Bush's 202.

Okay, you may say this doesn’t mean anything — things can change. So I ask why has there been only one Democratic president in the last 28 years? When the GOP starts to bully on the playground the Dems choke. Gore, Kerry, Anyone?

The only people who know how to pull through the clutch are the Clintons. Sex scandal — no problem. Another sex-scandal — no problem. Real estate scandal — hah. One more sex-scandal — bring it. Impeachment — F-you. Their Swift boat just doesn’t sink.

Wonder how many Republicans wish McCain would have picked someone else other than Palin???

Palin is correct. That had to be the biggest Obama blunder that we know of. His campaign would have been airtight if Hillary was the VP nominee. Instead he selected a Washington insider -windbag. I love the way NObama camp is scrambling to make amends to the Clintons.

You are wrong, Palin !

This woman is so full of it, and full of herself. I can't believe it? She is just like Bush! Could she be more arrogant?! She is not that great.

Next she'll be telling terrorists to "bring it on".

Give me a break.

You know that right but if he did pick Mrs. Bill Clinton ha also gets Mr. Bill Clinton and Obama would be in the back ground sefving coffee.

Palin's self-inflated sense of her own importance is showing. No committed Hilary supporter is going to vote for Palin.McCain. Did anyone notice both McCain (on The View) and Palin (on ABC) advocated overturning Roe versus Wade. "Keep 'em barefoot and pregnant." ROverturning the landmark woman's rights law must be another "task from God" I guess.

Sarah Plain changes with the wind. She calls Hillary a whiner and another word that I can not write on this post and now gives her praise. She and McCain will say or do anything to win. The American
people are insulted over how ignorant they think we are. However, on November 4, 2008 they will witness what many thought would never
happen.

Oh boy, CNN……… you seem to e quite taken by Gov. Palin. She IS NOT the first woman to have been nominated for VP!

How about doing some investigative reporting so we find out, exactly who she is? Her comments on the ABC interview and her comments at the RNC are SCARY, to those of us who value our FREEDOMS!

Just like a typical GOP, she likes to stretch the truth……. call her on it!

Or is CNN turning into Faux News?

Oh..Now palin is telepathic too? Awesome. GO OBAMA!

Ironic…McCain is probably wishing he did NOT pick you Palin!

Mccain: It's really so hard to decide but, I'll take door number three.
Wink: Johnny, tell him what he's won!
Johnny: Sarah Palin, a gimmick for a VP pick that will cause such an uproar, but once the smoke clears, will have him in such a tail spin that it will end with a spectacular face plant in November! Yes folks, that's gonna leave a mark! Back to you Wink!

How presumptuous of Palin. Obama made an excellent selection in Joe Biden. Although in many ways Hillary would have made a wonderful Veep candidate, we don't know whether or not she would have accepted the position, and there also would have been Bill, the Foundation and a number of other things that would have been put into play. Now it's time to put Palin's whining to rest. No more of this overly deferential treatment by the media. She's already proven that she can sling mud and lie. If she can't take it like the rest of the big kids, she needs to get out.

Sarah Palin changes with wind. She calls Hillary a whiner and another
word that I can not write on this post and now gives her praise.
She and McCain will say or do anything to win. The American
people are insulted over how ignorant they think we are. However,
on November 4, 2008 they will witness what many thought would
never happen.

What he has and what he wishes he had are two different things. Decision made. Deal with it and move on. Personally, I am more satisfied with Joe Biden as his choice than John McCain is with Sarah Palin.

PALIN IS MASTERMINDING HILLARY CLINTON SUPPORTERS TO GET BACK AT OBAMA. PALIN IS ADDING FUEL TO THE FIRE HOPING SHE CAN GET SOME OF HILLARY'S VOTE. I REALLY FEEL MCCAIN IS USING PALIN TO GET WHAT HE WANTS AND PEOPLE FAIL TO UNDERSTAND THAT. LETS SAY MCCAIN WINS, HE HAS HEART ATTACK AND DIES……YOU GOT A SOCCER MOM WHOS RUNNING THE COUNTRY WITH NO FOREIGN POLICY EXPERIENCE. YOU CANNOT COMPARE THE USA WITH ALASKA. HOW DARE SHE SAYS SHE IS READY TO LEAD. THIS IS ONE BIG SOAP OPERA ON MCCAINS PART.

And yes, Mrs. Liar Palin. John McShame wished he had probably gone with old Joe Judas Liarman, or greasy head Mitt Romonkey. You have been a disgrace to the repubs so far. Old McShame did not know that he had chosen a women with ethical problems. You will never be what Hillary Clinton is. You have put up this big smoke screen that fizzing with each lie you tell.

You are such a fake and liar. You and your husband attempted to deprive a man of his livihood. You called on Rick Warren, who I no longer trust as a man of God, for Scripture regarding the criticism you are now getting. I will give you Scripture. Please read
Galatians 6:7. What soever a man soweth that shall he also reap. Be prepared to reap liar Pailin because you soweth some bad seeds.

Mccain is grilled everywhere i.e youtube, the view, cnn, msnbc still he has better ratting than obama.

will anybody tell me who these rating companies work for.

in 2000 fox BROKE the news of bush win.

still media is giving the impression of mccains higher rating.

should american be ready for another dumb president for four more years

It is far too late in this campaign to have buyers remorse,and at least Obama is running a staight talk campaign.If there was ever buyers remorse it would be McCain as it get worse everyday with nothing but lies and still……………………………..no issues……….no talk of how to fix the economy.At least Obama has not gone off the deep end, like McCain with zero credibility with anyone that has any intellegence and a computer.By the way someone has to tell McCain to put that silly pen away, it is 2008 not 1968.

Can you get anymore arrogant then this?

It's funny – For all the critics who said Obama was the inexperienced, "green", candidate – he is the one offering a qualified, experienced, well respected running mate. John mccain has truly gone off the deep end with this woman.

The rest of the world see American as self-absorbed, fat, dumb GULLIBLE morons…and McCain/Palin will use that kowledge to win this election. We Americans are a waste of human skin if we let these two get away with their obvious and intentional lies!!

Truth still counts for something, or so I have tried to teach my kids!Unfortunately, the majority of evangelical and conservative christians believe lies and half-truths are alright if they are a means to an end! Their motto: Premarital sex, teen pregnacy, aldultery and lies are acceptable for one of "ours" but unacceptable for one of "theirs".

Only in America can such hypocrisy be rewarded with the presidency! We are something else!

Sarah can kick rocks with no socks. She just says things and has no idea what she's talking about.

and before it's over, mccain is going wished he had picked good old joe.

The nerve of you talking about Hillary, after you called her a whinner.
I saw all of your interviews with CHARLIE, and you did not answer one direct question. Most of your anwere made no sense. Most of the time you looked as if your were about to jump out of your chair.
Hillary, you are not. And not one of use truly Hillary supporters are going to vote for you.

Give me a break, this is the biggest fairy tale of them all.

Poor Sarah, she can't hold a candle to Hillary.

advice from sarah palin? thanks, but no thanks.

No, Sarah, unlike McCain, who recklessly makes what should be the most important decision of his campaign, Obama actually uses his brain for more than a hat rack. You don't even know what the Bush Doctrine is, yet you proclaim to know what is best for a campaign? With all of the dirt coming out on Palin, topped off with her display of sheer stupidity with Chalie Gibson, McCain will be the one with regrets come November.

Humm???? Can’t speak his mind.

Would you be touting her "determination and grit and even grace" if she was the nominee?

Clinton would be under constant and relentless attack and Obama would be labeled as weak; caving into the pressure to select her.

He made a terrific choice with Biden, and he probably could not be happier and more confident in that decision.

Just because you think it would be easier and would rather run against Clinton than Biden, does not make him the wrong pick.

Palin is being so sexist!

LOL!

Maverick?

NOT!

YES WE CAN!

Obama/Biden '08

Offering bad, unwanted advice.

The Palin Doctrine?

Perceived whine?

Is the shoe now on the other foot?

I think Obama asked Hillary to be VP and she wasn't interested. With 18 million votes, she probably has more power as a senator.

Maybe CNN should pay more attention to her lies than her unrequested opinions based on her skewed perceptions.

This is funny! Wow the hypocrisy! Unfortunately hypocrisy doesn't undermine a statement and/or argument… CNN should teach its Political Ticker writers how not to make logical fallacies when crafting their brilliant entries!

Democrats should have given the nomination to Hillary Clinton because she has the solution for america^s problems rather than experimenting with Obama..

Hillary supporter now for McCain & Palin.

One i think Hillary is afriad of facing Palin, and second should Obama loose in November she has a reason to say i told you so, she really don't want Obama to win, and as for the people that move over to McCain because of Palin it is sad to see people still have alot of hate towards someone who may look a little different, Palin don't have no idea what she is even doing, but for some people all she has to do is look a certain way and she is in.

What a big news!!!!!!!!!!! as if cheating and lying is new to McBush and the GOP PAlin fabrication.

It seems to me Palin has a lot more to do in claiming she is ready to be VP than to make suggestive claims about what Obama should have done or should do. This is more of Rove's baiting and tactic to keep his candidate in the news. When does Palin begin to raise above pettiness and distraction and discuss national issues. Are we seeing where her true strengths reside? I think so!

Our family believes that Joe Biden was a wonderful pick. And ever since learning more personal information about him from his sister our respect had deepened. In the same time we feel insulted by Mr. McCain's pick. I think he should have picked my husband for instance! My husband was a US Marine, served in 1992 in the Gulf, then worked for GE and finally ran a company for GE in Europe. He visited 50+ countries, he lead more people than Mrs. Palin, and speaks more languages than she does, or for that matter Mr. McCain does. He has a BA in Finance and an MBA. And finally if I were to compare Mrs. Palin to her female peers in world politics: to Mrs. Clinton, Mrs. Albright, Mrs. Thatcher, Mrs. Merkel, Mrs. Bhutto, etc we don't believe she stands a chance…

McCain probably wishes he'd picked anybody except Sarah Palin as HIS running mate.

Here's just a small taste of what McCain now wishes he could somehow wash away:

Troopergate – Now new and improved with subpoenas for her aids and husband!

As mayor Palin charged rape victims for forensic tests required to catch and convict their attackers

Husband spent years as a member of a separatist party – talk about sleeping with the enemy!

Same husband (see above legal and patriotism issues) was incredibly involved in running Alaska state government – copied on confidential email (so top secret they can't be release to the state legislature), attended state government meetings, did lots of influence peddling …

Palin believes that abortion is murder and should be illegal even in cases of rape and incest (someone really needs to ask her how long a 14 year old raped by her father should go to jail for if she has an abortion, or if she thinks capitol punishment would be more appropriate since she thinks a baby was intentional murdered).

Republicans were quick to declare how great an investigative newspaper the Philadelphia Inquirer was when is exposed John Edwards — wait till you see what they now have to say about Palin!

… and there will be lots more in the weeks to come.

What a joke….and she probably regrets the inexperienced,deer in the headlightsl ike answers she gave to ABC….

Dear Ms Palin.., Barack Obama was looking for the best person (man or woman) to step in for him if something were to happen to him. You see…., Barack really does take this whole thing being the leader of the free world seriously and know's the country need real leadership both at the presidential level and vice presidential level. This is not "American Idol" to him or Joe Biden, as you and John McCain are trying to turn this election into. Finally, Barack Obama didnot pick Hillary Clinton because she was a woman and there were hard feelings after the primaries or she wasnt qualified (like yourself)…, he didnt pick her because Joe Biden was the better choice for the "COUNTRY" THAT HE LOVES!!!! Not a popularity contest!

Actually, as a Hillary supporter, I rather respected Sen Obama for not picking her. It was a very gutsy move against what likely would have ensured a victory. I know Republicans were breathing easier with the Biden pick.

But I think McCain is a better choice for President. I think his sacrifice, his hard work over the years and willingness to stand on personal convictions dispute some staunch partisan opposition make him a better candidate in terms of Leadship/Executive skill.

His military background is critical in these times as well.
Contrary to the Leftist philosophy, the Military does NOT like to stay in WARS, they like to WIN them. And this Iraq thing needs to end and needs to end properly.

Sorry, but McCain is no Bush. He is a different man, with a different history and different RESULTS in the course of his career.

McCain/Palin, 2008

Palin can probably identify with Clinton now that she has been subjected to the sexism that HRC experienced. I didn't see the media going after Biden's family like they did Palin's. The progressives at Kos have been despicable…….and I am a Democrat.

…as the McCain campaign whines about Lipstick on a pig! Give me a break.

"John McCain believes the Vietnam War was winnable. He argues that an Obama administration would accept defeat in Iraq, with grave costs to American honor and national security. Is McCain’s quest for victory a reflection of an antiquated pre-Vietnam mind-set?…Is there any war McCain thinks can’t be won?"

"…McCain believes, among other things, that “some political problems have military solutions.” A related McCain belief that’s even more out of sync with America’s current mood…."

Read – "The Wars of John McCain" by Jeffrey Goldberg, The Atlantic Monthly, October, 2008

Wow! She can read minds too!! What more can we ask for in a President?!!

I have no doubt he does now. But too late. So many voters — especially
women voter had wanted Hillary on the ticket. But he is too narrow- minded to share the ticket with Hillary, who got as many votes as he did. Now those voters have been turned away. It is his own doing. His own fault. Nobody can help him now. Even he begged Bill, now it wont help. Too late.

is going to be sorry that he didn’t .Hillary Clinton don’t want part of it. she is getting ready for another fail election in 2012

palin 2012

Dear Ms Palin.., Barack Obama was looking for the best person (man or woman) to step in for him if something were to happen to him. You see…., Barack really does take this whole thing being the leader of the free world seriously and know's the country need real leadership both at the presidential level and vice presidential level. This is not "American Idol" to him or Joe Biden, as you and John McCain are trying to turn this election into. Finally, Barack Obama didnot pick Hillary Clinton because she was a woman and there were hard feelings after the primaries or she wasnt qualified (like yourself)…, he didnt pick her because Joe Biden was the better choice for the "COUNTRY" THAT HE LOVES!!!! Not a popularity contest!

Hillary should tell Obama to get off her back and stop campaigning for him. Why pretend there are no bad blood between them after Obama dishonestly attacked her and her record? Let him go to explain to the American people why his thin resume better prepared him to be the president and why he is more qualified by Gov. Palin.

Gov. Palin don't even go THERE okay? OKAY! After your horrific interview with Charlie Gibson. I can't WAIT to see you go up against Joe Biden! LOL. Does the phrase "deer with headlights beaming" sound familiar?

If anyone should be having any serious regrets it should be OLD MAN McCain since he doesn't TRUST you enough to go out and campaign on your own. Talk about really being his "pitt bull", he's got you on a very tight leash, like some trained puppy.

The VERY big difference here is that Sen. Obama DID NOT have to pick Sen. Hillary Clinton. John McCain HAD to pick you otherwise NO ONE would show up to his RNC and to his lame and boring rallies!! Let's KEEP IT REAL OKAY? John McCain was doing nothing but putting folks to sleep. Many in his own party didn't even "show up" at the RNC. YOU my dear, was a FORCED and RECKLESS decision. A decision that's most certainly going to come back and BITE Sen. McCain is his old wrinkle behind!!

I wouldn't worry about Sen. Obama…. because we LOYAL DEMOCRATS have his back and will continue to do so. So don't you worrying your little head about us. We've GOT THIS!!

Who really cares what Palin thinks? Really she actually has the gull to even open her mouth about anyone is what shocks the F– out of me. Frankly, I cont care how you look at it, Palin doesnt make a pimple on Hillary Clintons but cheek. So McCains pick of a shyt talking NOBODY really amounts to nothing. However, there are those that are excited about her…GEESH… Are thier last names SIMPSON? (Homer)

You are no Hillary baby. Hillary was not running for vip any way. She would have been just as qualified and as Obama to be prez of this country.

Neither McCain nor his bush, not to talk of Patin, qualify as President and vip for this great country. BOth Obama and Hillary can lead the worl. Neither McCain nor Patin can. the difference between patin, palin, and putain? spelling….

GREAT! PALIN HERSELF SAYS WE SHOULD NOT WHINE ABOUT SEXISM..BUT WHY DOES THE MCCAIN CAMP WHINE ABOUT THE SEXISM THEY SAY IS DIRECTED TOWARDS PALIN? THEY SHOULD LISTEN TO THEIR OWN CAMP.

A comment such as that made by Gov. Palin clearly indicates the intention of the McCain camp when she was selected as the VP running mate; to use her as a tool to attract the female vote. How low and disgusting is that!!! What is even more disturbing is that it appears that Gov Palin is happy with being used in this manner.

Obama is happy with Biden and the rest of America will be too when Obama/Biden win the election.

I think it was very arrogant of Sarah Palin to make such a statement. She is fortunate to have been nominated and now she has the gut to question Obama's choice. It will so bite her in the butt if Obama ends up winning.

America votes in black and white!

Picking Clinton was a lose/lose situation. If Obama did pick her, he would have lost many of his supporters who just don't like her, not to mention the "Bill" factor. What exactly, do you do with an ex President that all of a sudden doesn't have any real power.

He didn't pick her and we got Palin.

However, I think intelligent women aren't going to fall for the repub plan. I'm insulted they think women would vote for him merely because he has a woman on the ticket. The repubs are going against everything women have worked so hard to achieve. Putting a woman in power is something we take seriously and it would undermine the entire women's movement to elect someone who, would more than likely, fail and in a big way. Then, we have the good ole boys pulling a "told you so" and the movement is sent back to the stone age.

As a side note, Palin has some nerve talking about Clinton "whining" when she screams sexism whenever anyone questions her credential. Do they expect us to elect her because McCain thinks we should, without knowing anything about her at all?

Sorry, repubs, the American women are more intelligent than to fall for your ploy. When a woman makes it into the highest office it will be because she earned it.

Joe Biden said, "As my pop used to say," he tells audiences daily, "it's not how many times you get knocked down. It's how quickly you get back up."
Shouldn't that be, "It's not how many times you get knocked down. It's how many times you get knocked up" ?????

If this is true, then he's not the only one. I think he was too confident. He needs every ounce of help this election.

I feel bad that the right wing gets their female candidate and the left doesn't. I've been such an obedient leftie all these years, and I totally agree with the Democratic platform. The thanks for this is that I have Senator Biden as the VP choice. That is just a slap in the face.

On blogs, people often get really viscious if you say this. Even in the left, if you come out and openly express your feminist views, you are often villified. However, this is what I believe and I will keep writing it.

Let's hear some real issues Palin……..stop trying to divide and create a atmosphere of deception. Start regurgitating what the Right has placed in your brain. You are a robot so start the B.S. movie……….

Stick to the issues, Palin. PS- nobody cares anymore that you "put that jet on ebay"

Why would I care what she thinks?

I watched the interview.

She is a BSer. If she doesn't know the answer, which is often, she just talks and talks and talks hoping the other person glazes over.

When asked about adult stem cell research, she referred to them as "adult skin cells". I even check with the close caption on to see if I was hearing things. OMG she is George W Bush in drag!!!

Being the humanitarian that I am, I will be using a loofa tonight and donating my "adult skin cells" for research.

God save us!!!

As an 86 year old female I have been around long enough to have an idea about what war with Russia would look like. I was not for Cillary Clinton because of her support for the AIPAC and their war mongering for Israel. I am not for Sarah Palin because she is not afraid of war with Russia. I am sexist. I believe that the A bomb should be kept out of the hands of females who are not known for diplomatic skills.

Hmmm if she was smart she would have turned down McCain's offer because as I see it, she is just being pimped out!!

Does she realize that if Obama had chosen Clinton, she wouldn't be McCain's VP pick? Anyway, she is just saying this to ruffle HRC supporters' feathers, she made it clear what she really thought of Clinton

Not for one minute, missy. And shame on CNN for headlining it as though Palin had some secret insider information instead of it being her usual snide "thoughts" from right inside her own little head. (Or Rove's, whichever)

Oh, and, I can add that I betcha McCain is really regretting that he didn't pick someone with a brain. I really do. Because two no-brains put together still adds up to nothing.

OBAMA & BIDEN 2008

If you can't pronounce "nuclear" you can't have my vote!!

Wow…what a cocky little thing.

you are no clinton. your ploy wont sway her voters your way, FRAUD.
go back to alaska and clean up your mess.

OBAMA/BIDEN08

I'm sure if Obama picked Clinton – Palin would not be the GOP's VP pick…

Poor, Poor, Sarah, I feel so sorry for her that she has let Karl Rove
and John MCcain use her so badly. Sarah, you have no clue what you are in for with this party. You did not think about this major decision
and you and your family will suffer for this. You are making a boy marry your daughter just for the republican party and John MCcain. How do you know that the child is Levi's. It appears that you make decisions before you think and this what makes me think that you are not ready to be vp. You remind me of George Bush. You do not think first. You think last and we have had enough of this kind of governing.

Just saw the entry that Palin said "Obama wishes he'd picked Clinton as VP" – please lady, let him speak for himself! Palin seems very deceptive to me. Go Obama !

And yet she says absolutely nothing when her supporters and surrogates scream "sexism!" every time her record or experience or anything is challenged.

Palin is not qualified to do or say anything and SHOULD not stand on Clinton's platform. She can not wear Hilliary's shoes or pants for that matter.

Just keep to you lipstick choice and choice of animal, pitbull, moose and yes P I G.

I am really starting to dislike Palin a lot! "Christians" like her are the reason many people are cynical about religion. She certainly doesn't believe in the same God I do. When will she and McCain stop the lies and constant character attacks and start talking about the issues?

Sarah Palin is grossly unqualified to be Vice President. The idea that a person who is governor of Alaska for less than two years can have a significant hand in running a government that is a 1000 times as large as Alaska's is inconceivable. Do you Republicans realize that if McCain does not survive his first four years, the major powers that are against us and the Arab world will be salivating over the sheer lack of experience and possibly the intelligence of Ms. Palin? I can't imagine what Medvedev and Putin would do if she is President, because they can run circles around her. McCain's choice puts us all in danger.

Also, does she know a thing about finance, except balancing Alaska's budget? Could she grasp the extreme complexities of our financial markets? My guess is not.

And to counter her argument about how being a President should not be a journey of personal discovery, being a vice-President should not be a education on every conceivable topic of federal government management. See "The Presidency of George W. Bush".

Remember, in the words of McCain, we are Americans first.

Sincerely,

A level headed Independent.

Maybe Obama should have picked palin. Palin and McCain are like the odd couple. I bet McCain wish yesturday was election day. More and more things are hitting the fan on palin and McCain. Vetted, I think not. McCain has gone from maverick ??? to what most know him as reckless hot head.

Advice to Palin — Count to not 10 but 100 before speaking. use grace in your approach. It will take you further.

You should have thought long and hard before taking McCains offer.

I think you will make a nice VP one day.

McCain is using as his puppet or side show, to give him some light.

do not worry

Biden will do fine

Team Obama / Biden will win big

JOHN MCCAIN AND SARAH PALIN ARE A DISGRACE TO AMERICA.
WINNING AT ANY COST IS THEIR ONLY CONCERN!

hmmmm praising Clinton after calling her a whiner…My God am I the only person who see through this crap? Has McCain just decided that all truth and decency can go out the window; shoot who cares apparently 46% of voters condone and even like this type of campaign. My god this is like being in an episode of The Twilight Zone….

Keep your opinions to yourself please Governor Palin. You are so undereducated and underaccomplished…that your opinion means nothing.

They WISH he had picked Hillary…then Palin would have not been necessary. The one thing that would have united the GOP more than anything else would of been Hillary (who I love). .
There are MANY Democrats who would not of supported her on any part of the ticket…that would of made this phoney PUMA look anemic.

What a disgrace to women this idiot is turning out to be. She lies when the truth would fit better and she is a corrupt as the day is long but the public is too stupid to figure it out.

How could anyone with an ounce of integrity fall or support something as cold and insulting as this alaskan trollop. It makes you wonder how her husband's partner could have got tangled up with her unless it was just for count.

Yeah a I bet Obama is kicking himself and Hilliary is laughing. OOP's Dems did it again!!!!! LOL!

Is this criticism about women progressing coming from "the New Alan Keys" herself?

TOKEN '08

I wish Palin would go back to Alaska. I find her repulsive and can't stand the mouthy witch. If she is so great, why won't she have a press conference where she has to answer questions. She isn't that great, that's why. I'm a woman and I would't vote for her.

WHERE IN THE HELL IS JOE BIDEN????

IF HE CAN'T HANDLE THE JOB THEN HE SHOULD DROP OUT AND HILLARY SHE BE THE CANDIDATE!

Now Palin knows what Obama is thinking..haha…she should be so lucky to have his brain.

And right now McCain is wishing he didn't pick Palin so its a wash, and McSame wouldn't have picked Palin if that were the case anyway.

Pain certainly can't speak for the senator. I feel his choice not to sleep w/the enemy was courageous & right. Unlike the Repugnants who'll sell their souls & the souls of their children to seek their egotistical wishes. Ms Pain is giving herself far too much credit.
Obama / Biden 08 !!!!

She lives in another world. She is lucky Hillary wasn't picked

I am losing more and more respect for Sarah Palin day by day.

Say anything, do anything and lie about it…politics as usual.

She is no Hillary Clinton and her interview with Charlie reaffirmed that McCain is willing to HURT the country to WIN an election. Talking heads…all of them. I'm sure Bush's speechwriters and tutors have prepped her well…at what cost…what change????

Obama/Biden…our only hope!

Palin, you need to concentrate on reading the cue cards that your party gave you because your interview was laughable.

Obama should have picked Hillary, but really Hillary should have gotten the nomination as she is/was more qualified and should have been the top of the ticket…she was cheated out of the nomination and the Florida/Michigan/caucuses issues were only part of the mess.

Obama at the time to chose a VP felt he could not lose…….he was too arrogant! Problem was he should have been leading in the polls by 60%. or more by then but wasn't……did none of the Dems see how close it was, why Obama was not doing well?????? The undecideds just don't want to say they won't vote for Obama….people are afraid of being called racists, when his lack of experience and political tactics vs women are the problem.

DNC and Obama thought he could do it on his own…sorry, we all saw what a stupid move that was. The Dems had the chance to chose a woman for Pres and a non-white for VP….they blew it…Obama has no experience and Biden brings little to the ticket. Congrats to McCain for having the guts to chose a woman who also seems to have some guts.

In an effort to protect moose and caribou, the Alaskan governor has condoned the practice, in which volunteers chase wolves from above and shoot them after they’ve died of exhaustion. Palin unsuccessfully tried to have the state pay $150 for every slaughtered wolf, which was considered an “illegal use of bounty payments.” Also, it would make wearing this shirt in Alaska a huge bummer.

I am REALLY impressed with Sarah Palin – she has gotten more done in her time as Governor and Mayor than Obama has in his short time in office – I would trust her more than him.

Personally, I do not really care what this wacko has to say about the Democratic ticket. I learned enough about her from her interview with "Charles, can I call you Charlie?" Gibson to know that she is completely unqualified to be Vice President. Anyone who "puts his country first" would not pick her to be a heartbeat away from the presidency and certainly not a 72 year-old who has had melanoma within the last five years.

no isues that what they talk about

It's sad how the media grasps at small comments and attempts to exploit it into a larger issue. However, considering the O-Kids are only have attention spans of nats, this is what news has came to in the world. Heck, the O-Kids write for CNN, what am I talking about.

It’s not about Hillary Clinton; it’s about Palin she does not have any important policy to offer rather than talking a bout distraction politics. Clinton is a tough woman who survived a lot of tough moments and I wonder if Palin cannot even survive 15 min interview what she has to offer as a VP. I think the Media should schedule more Interviews with Palin, so we can get to know her before we discover it was an “Empty Coconut shell”. The Karl Rove style of politics is gone, let her stop talking a bout
Hillary and tell us what she has to offer as VP.

No, Mrs. Palin. Your GOP-fed soundbite is wrong.

Obama is running on issues and judgement. He's not going to pick a VP…

a) …who would be better off as secretary of state, or leading congress like Clinton would.

b) …is only being picked to try to disrupt (in a very surfacey way) his position of change. She is actually a step backwards for feminism, because she was obviously picked based on her gender (when there were so many qualified candidates.). And if Obama had picked Clinton, it would have been based more on experience than campaign tactics.

When all the settles, the US will see just how bad a choice Palin is. And a lot can setlle in 2 months…

Palin is so transparent… trying too woo disenfranchised Clinton supporters. She flip-flops her opinions as often as the campaign asks her to.

She must think everyone in America is an idiot!

Come to think of it, I'll bet it's Senator McCain who probably wishes he'd chosen a different running mate…

I think McCain will regret choosing you when he looses in November. Should have chosen Romney.

Oh please…little Ms Muffet can't hold a candle to Hillary

Even Biden this week wanted off the ticket and ahot himself in the foot by saying Hillary would be better. Of course Hillary has too many legal issues that would follow her to the white house. And Palin is right about Hillary's pathetic whining and crying routine. If she thinks she is equal, wants to be treated as equal and respected as a equal the last thing she should have done is moan and whine that she needs special treatment.

Democrats are such born losers.

Gender makes no difference here. She is Bush in drag–false hometown charm, lies and arrogance–a completely manufactured image by the GOP based on focus groups. Come on people, open your eyes. Obama has to be better than this.

Palin is a puppet and a shiny object to divert people away from the issues.

Dear Sarah Palin: Do you realize that if Obama had picked Hillary for VP, you would not have been chosen to run with McCain? Hillary would have been enough to energize the extreme right and evangelical vote.

You are just a political move, a distraction in this campaign where the GOP can not talked about the issues because your party has been in power in the past 8 years and have done nothing to prevent the bubble real estate market or the mortgage crisis, just to cite a couple of examples. We have others: health care, education, poverty, war in Irak, etc. McCain, by the way, has voted with Bush 90% of the time. Not only that, his campaign is being run by the same people who run Bush campaign in 2000 and sank him in South Caroline with all those lies. It is just more of the same. You can put lipstick on a pig, it is still a pig.

Amazing woman!

Has only been to Canada and Mexico in her lifetime on vacation. Does not realize that Georgia invaded the breakaway provinces which were mostly of Russian descent.Thinks that Russia needs to be put in it's place for defending those people but believes that the fight in Iraq is what her god wants. Probably has no idea where Georgia is.

Is fighting a potential political scandal in her own state of Alaska. Is kept under wraps from meeting with the media on her own after the ABC interview. Etc, etc, etc.

And you want this woman to be the VP of the USA and possibly one day Pres if something happened to McCain.

What are you people possibly thinking?

I think John McCain is wishing he had picked someone else….and not the other way as she suggests.

As a Hillary supporter, I would certainly have wanted her as President or Vice President. However, Joe Biden will make a great Vice President and could easily step into the President's shoes if necessary – something that cannot be said about Gov. Palin.

Unlike the GOP, Democrats had an outstanding field of candidates and we would be proud to have any one of them on the ticket. Like most women, I want someone capable not just someone who shares a bathroom with my gender. That's childish, you know, sort of Republican.

Sen. Clinton is a great Senator who could be a great majority leader, Attorney General, or Secretary of State. Sen. Biden will be a great Vice President and I don't think Sen. Obama regrets his choice at all.

This woman is a nightmare! She is no Sen. Clinton, she is more like Buffalo Bob to Howdy Doody McCain. Lies about the bridge to nowhere, lies about troopergate, lies about her stance on abortion to move to then center, lies about going to Iraq (she never set foot in Iraq), lies about everything. Thiese 2 morons are not fit to serve our Country!

So, let me get this straight? SaraLiarPalin is ALSO a PSYCHIC who has been sent by God to be able to KNOW what EVERY PERSON in America and throughout the world thinks???

I bet Mccain is doing the same about you Palin.
Her opinion doesnt matter anyway, Biden was a great choice. hopefully Hillary will get secretary of state.
Dems must win this election, shut these republicans up!

wow so now she is putting words in his mouth, Palin is no Clinton she cant walk a mile in her heels

No . . . there's no regret by Obama over not picking Hillary Clinton. The reason – there was danger that as vice president she would be disloyal. Neither of the Clintons would have been able to keep their own ambitions under control. And the result would have been a presidential administration in disarray.

SENATOR OBAMA HAS SUCH AN EGO, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY HARD FOR HIM TO PICK HILLARY, FOR FEAR SHE OR PREIDENT CLINTON WOULD OVER SHADOW HIM . HAD HE PICKED HILLARY THE WHITE HOUSE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A WINNING COLUMN, BUT NOW THIS SEEMS VERY UNLIKELY. IT WILL BE HARD FOR A LOT OF DEMOCRATS TO VOTE THE OBAMA/BIDEN TICKET IN NOVEMBER, THIS REALLY COULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR COUNTRY FOR SEVERAL REASONS.

Let's try this again…
And how does she propose to know what Senator Obama wishes or thinks? Some people slay me… As if this is a viable article. Folks, it's time to put Governor Palin on the back burner and get back to addressing the important issues concerning this country. Hey CNN, how about you ask Senator McCain how he expects to achieve any effective results in moving this country forward by addressing today's issues with yesterday's solutions. Why don't you guys show a little professionalism and start performing some real journalism?

Everyone knows Obama picked Biden because of his foreign policy experience which he lacks. That makes the Obama / Biden ticket very strong. He did not pick Clinton because she's a woman.

I'm still trying to figure out what makes the McCain / Palin ticket strong.
Just because McCain is a POW? That was 30 years ago.

So now this empty headed, self-absorbed, hypocrite is now a mind reader as well.

American deserves exactly what it gets. The ignorance of women in this country, especially among white women who vote republicna, is mind-boggling.

They latch on to one thing they have in common with McCain and/or Palin, ignore all the other issues which they will not even talk about, simply ebcause they have no answers, no plan, no ideas or solutions and women of America lap it up.

Any woman who would put the Vice Presidency, and possibly the presidency, within the reach of Sarah Palin, cannot be taken seriously when they say the put their family, their children and their futures first.

Can't have it both ways ladies. Wake UP!
MORE KOOL-AID anyone????????

More Lies, More Fluff

McCain aide Kimmie Lipscomb told reporters on Sept. 10 that an outdoor rally in Fairfax City, Virginia, drew 23,000 people, attributing the crowd estimate to a fire marshal.

Fairfax City Fire Marshal Andrew Wilson said his office did not supply that number to the campaign and could not confirm it

In recent days, journalists attending the rallies have been raising questions about the crowd estimates with the campaign. In a story on Sept. 11 about Palin's attraction for some Virginia women voters, Washington Post reporter Marc Fisher estimated the crowd to be 8,000, not the 23,000 cited by the campaign.

"The 23,000 figure was substantiated on the ground," McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds said. "The campaign is willing to stand by the fact that it was our biggest crowd to date."

"Since day one, this campaign has been consistent that we're not going to win or lose based on crowd size but the substance of John McCain's record," Bounds said.

Hahaha….Obama being beaten up in all directions…Biden says Hillary would've been a better pick…what a meltdown!! Now all we need is the return of Rev. Wright…and you will have a Mccain-Palin landslide

Whatever Sarah

NO WAY! NO HOW! NO PALIN!

Hillary is going to call her on her hypocrisy if she doesn't watch it.

Palin is a jerk! an abomination! A dispicable trophy bride! Amouth peice for the right winged freedom HATING group

Looking good and repeating message fed by bush specialist does not make you a potential candidate for vice-president of USA.

She cannot even come near Hillary Clinton's shadow. Hillary Clinton has fought for every thing what Palin and the old haf McCain wants to overturn.

I as a woman am ashamed that McCain has picked a trophy bride and a mouth peice with LIPSTICK!

It's funny how Republicans are trying to 'make' themselves like Palin. No matter how you spin it – she isn't qualified to be one step away from most important job in all of the world…cmon…really? She has spunk but she is no VP

There is not enough room on this page to list ALL of the reasons why Palin is a joke.

I think we all get it, so let's just move on…my hand is getting tired from typing all of her blunders.

Well, the only thing to say is Duh! If Obama had a brain, he could be dangerous.

By publishing this supposed story (it's really just a quote, with no substance to it) you help Palin deflect away attention from herself and Republican policies, on a topic on which she is no authority. Please, please, give us some articles with meat on them– about real stuff like foreign policies, the environment and the viability of our economy.

If Obama would have picked Hillary, Palin wouldn't have been nowhere in the Republican picture and she wouldn't be having these "15 minutes" of fame. So Palin, YOU better be glad Obama didn't pick Hillary.

I love how Hillary Clinton is the poster child, darling of the right now. A few months back a woman at a McCain rally called Hillary the b-word and McCain just laughed.

These people are blatant pandering opportunists.

This woman is looser with her mouth than Bush. I'm sure it was scripted, but that still tells you how the Republicans plan to use her. It's really shameless.

More importantly, IT DOES NOTHING to FOCUS us on the issues we need to clarify to make an INFORMED choice.

Pandering is not attractive.

We all know Sen. Clinton was raked over the Obama fire during the primaries and she did a pretty good job of handling it. As for Oboma picking her for a running mate, I think he is kicking him self for not picking her, but his head was to big and he enjoyed tossing her and Bill under the bus. Now , one has to wonder "what" happened or how much Bill was paid to vote for and stump for Obama now? Was Hill's debt paid off? Was Bill promised a supreme court seat? What was Bill promised for such a change of heart?????

Keep trying, Sarah, to make ANY SORT OF comparison between yourself and Hillary. You are delusional!

And keep trying, Sarah, to attract Hillary's women supporters to the GOP. Not gonna happen. You two women couldn't be more different.

Obama 08! formerly for Hillary.

Palin is smart cookie. This Hillary voter will be voting McCain/Palin this year. All because I need to send a message to the democratic party that I won't stand for what happened to Hillary. The Dems will not win the white house this year and Obama and the DNC have themselves to thank for that. I think John McCain was brilliant in choosing this young lady. To be quite frank, she's more down to earth and has more life experience than Hillary, OB, McCain, Biden….any of them. I might not agree with everything the Reps stand for, but I do agree with this choice. I think she is an awesome pick. Way to go Obama….way to lose the election!

Cincinnati, Ohio

Sarah Palin's say anything strategy. She was for the bridge before she was against it. She critiqued Senator Clinton before she admired her. Is there a pattern developing here?

the Gop: turning hypocrisy into an art form since 1969

Sarah Palin was picked in order to shore up and energize the evangelical base… not as a women vote getter. It's been pretty clear that the majority of women do not support Sarah Palin's stances on several key womens rights issues… and as such they don't stand with her.

How does this apply to what Palin has to offer to Americans. It is clear that Palin is as empty as her boss; they have nothing to offer America so they have decided to go personal and destructive. The beauty of it however is that Americans know who is fooling who. Negative campaigning will not solve America's problems. The GOP's are so lazy that they do not find it necessary to come up with a solid ideological campaign based on policies & issues that mostly affect Americans rather, they spend their energy in destructive politics that will haunt them even after the elections. We watching to see where this will lead America.

I think what she's really saying is "John McCain got himself a woman; I bet Barack Obama wishes he had, too." It's more idiocy from her and the McCain campaign, and if they really think they are going to steal Hillary supporters just by having a woman on the ticket, they are lacking in common sense. Any former Hillary supporters that do decide to vote for McCain/Plain were only supporting Hillary because she was a woman, and I believe they will be in the minority. McCain and Palin's policies and views are like night and day compared to Hillary's, and anyone that supported Hillary because of her beliefs could not vote for this FORMER maverick and his right wing extremist nut VP with a clear conscience.

Knock it off CNN–this is just today's GOP talking point. When are you going to stop feeding the GOP's distractions and start talking about issues. BTW, McCain regrets VP choice, rest of the world says

I didn't realize she was in Obama's confidence. Sarah, let me clue you in on something: Obama is a very smart man. He is probably well aware that with Hillary Clinton as his running mate, people would flock to him. But, instead of choosing the calculating, politically expeditious path, he opted instead to pick a candidate whose strengths and experiences, along with personality, complemented Obama's. Silly Obama – he wants to do the right thing for America. John McCain threw principles to the wind in selecting you Sarah. You are shallow and completely unqualified for the VP job. If America votes issues, it will vote Obama. If American's fall for the Roman "bread and circuses" which the GOP offers, then it will just confirm what much of the world suspects – we're just as shallow and unworthy as you are Sarah.

Why don't people who work for major news organizations have elementary level reading comprehension skills? She said "perceived whining" – in other words she was suggesting that Hillary be careful because any complaining would be perceived as whining because she is a woman. She was not calling her a "whiner."

And of course he should have picked Hillary. But too late now.

americans this is the time to say NO to the Gop .

All of this hype about the Governor of Alaska …… i can't believe that our neighbours to the South (directed by the media?) can waste so much time talking about nothing and not even addressing the real issues facing the country.
We need change in the United States government and it sure isn't going to come from Senator McCain and Governor Palin and the George Bush Republicans.

Interested Canadian

this woman has some nerves…now we know the real reason behind her vp pick by mcsame. Shameful all the way. This woman is really scary.

Sarah is really good. She should be running for the top spot. Now she can read other people minds.

Divide and conquer tactics….nice try GOP.

Obama will win in November. Good to see the Repubs peaking with almost two months to go.

I disagree. Obama is always right. He never makes bad/wrong descisions. He is perfect! If by accident he says something people don't like, in his speaches, he will explain what he really meant to say
very quickly to ease their worries. But you do have to pay attention to what he says! You don't want to anger him. You don't want him to come back out after a Great Speach, and have to tell you, "you weren't listening".
All Hail Obama!

I love palin, she is the right woman for the job.

Anyone consider that perhaps SHE DIDN'T WANT IT?

Obama made the right decision and we will win in November.

Dear Palin
This election isn't about winning somehow. Mccain picked you inorder to gain more votes. You and him are not really concerned about the American economy or the future of the American people.
But Obama is not talking about just winning, but winning to make sure he can do something to this country to improve it. Thats why he picked Biden a senior member who can challenge his thoughts and make a rational decision on every issue this country is facing.

I can't believe that he picked you as VP. Good luck working with McCain, he won't even consider you when making any decision. You are just a dummy for him to win more votes.
Sorry thats the sad truth

Obama/Biden – 08 and 12

A caution to all you potential women voters flocking to Sarah Palin. Keep in mind that she is no Hillary Clinton and Palin's views and policies are MUCH different. Make no mistake, a vote for the McCain-Palin ticket will set women's rights back 100 years.

Well, his choice of Biden will make him loose the election. But he will probably stay alive now. Being the only thing in the way of a Clinton being president, ya have to know you got a big bulls eye on your back. Good work Obama I for one think you did the right thing for you.

What does she know? We have seen how far emerging economies have grown the past eigth years and where we got stuck. I think we will regret our choice if we make it only based on her being a mother

More pandering by Palin and McCain to try and win over the female vote.

Here's hoping women look to the ideas supported by Palin rather than being so superficial as to merely vote based on gender.

I want a female Vice President. I want a female President. I don't want THIS female to be President or Vice President.

I wouldn't say he regrets not picking Hillary I believe he will have a spot for her in his cabinet. I heard on CNN the other day, MCcain and O 'bama making an offer to each other that they put each other on each other cabinet but I hadn't heard nomore about it.

Given Hillary's tepid support of Obama and her remarks about Bobby Kennedy why are you surprised? She and Bill unfortunately would have been dragged through the Monicagate fiasco once again. Too much dirty laundry and too many enemies. I am sure she refused on her own long ago. She will serve better and have more power in another position. If she wants it! We need her more in the senate.

Sarah Palin is as phony as a $3 bill. It's so obvious that when you contrast her comments and record prior to being selected as McCain's VP with her responses and comments since, that she's being completely reinvented to serve the interests of a Republican victory in November.
Sooner or later, the rhetoric and the facts, the 'before' and 'after' photos will become apparent to the American public — once the novelty has worn off.
If not, God help us all!

But when the Alaska governor first hit the trail after being named John McCain’s running mate, she made remarks at campaign events praising the New York senator, though she stopped making the comments after drawing consistently negative reactions from GOP crowds.
____________________

Palin is not only a liar, arrogant, self-absorbed, and power hungry, but she is a total HYPOCRITE!

Palin said that she "sent the National Guard in to help other states"
Lie, she never did.

She said that many VP's never met other heads of state.
True but not in 35 years.

McCain said she sold her jet for a profit on eBay. It was sold privately for a loss.

Palin said her son is fighting those who attacked us when he goes to Iraq. When did Iraq attack us? Just shows how lame she is.

And she CHOKED on Bush Doctrine. Fox can say all they want that Charlie interpreted it differently himself over the years. Charlie never thought it was Bush's "view of the world" and Charlie is not running for office.

The list goes on and on how lame Palin is.

No one is "scared" of her…we are all just amazed at this ridiculous choice for VP!

As Palin sucks up to Hillary Clinton voters, the media is busy exposing the lies she has told to the American people. Palin did not go to Iraq, or Ireland as she and McCain reported as part of her world experience. She did not say "thanks but no thanks" on the Bridge to Nowhere. She strongly supported it until after Congress nixed it, then she kept the money. She claims to be a Republican willing to take on a fellow Republican who had abused his office and misused state resources. But what was not known at the time was that a year earlier, Palin had used official resources for her own partisan purposes. Palin boasted no earmark spending but hired a lobbyist to secure millions. Palin and McCain will say anything to get elected, and will continue insult the intelligence of the American people.

I find her comments amusing. I think Palin regrets it since she's going to have to face Biden in a debate in 3 weeks talking about issues she isn't in touch with American principles on, that is foreign policy. A policy she, McCain, and Bush are all pretty clueless on. Her comments a day before indicated she wants us to go to war with Russia. I don't think so. If she becomes VP and eventually has to step into the Presidency, we'll all be in some deep crap.

I don't think he's sorry he didn't pick Hillary. I think his choice of Biden falls much more in line with his values and love of our country. Biden just isn't an attack monger like Palin. Biden is actually knowledgeable! It digusts me more and more every day that McCain/Palin continue the attack style of campaigning rather than discussing the issues. During the Gibson interview, Palin showed she right up there with McCain…spewed the same rhetoric that McCain does and even showed her temper is right at the surface when she didn't understand the Bush Doctrine question. Boy does body language show a lot about a person or what? Same thing goes for McCain on The View. His temper flared when Joy said Palin had taken earmarks and then he said "not as Governor" which is an outright lie. Stop the lies and just give us the truth. We are adults and can handle it!

Of course now that McCain's trying to rally the women who were following Clinton Palin will say Hillary has determination and grit. Women will vote for anyone as long as they have ovaries, right?

I don't know which is worse: That the McCain/Palin camp came up with this strategy or that it actually works.

Palin is McCains dupe{a}. Look at the bright side…no more pesky wolves to to bother the caribou in your backyard, fix the old town bridge(but keep the money.),rid the local and school library of all those nasty books, no more condoms at the local pharmacy and you can upgrade your shotgun free of charge! WAKE UP AMERICA!!

Yup, yup. Just like she's been to Iraq and Ireland, "Bridge to Nowhere", "Troopergate" et al. One of these days Palin may even tell the truth about something.

I'll tell you one regrettable Veep pick and it's the "pig in the poke" Palin that McCain's foised upon us. I won't even go into the other lies and sleazeball tactics of the GOP.

Now she's a mind reader?

Let's hear about issues, policy, plans, etc.
Palin should be spending this time going to night school to catch up with the knowledge she may need as VP.

GO OBAMA

Sarah Palin went from PTA member to candidate for Vice President of the United States in 12 years. What a woman. What a model for my daughters. What a model for American women.

Sarah Palin 12 & 16′

If you Google 3 words….
Sarah Third Wave,
click on the top link and watch the video, you'll understand that doesn't matter that Obama didn't choose Hillary.

I bet he does wish.
He just lost a couple million votes.

HILLARY 2012!!!!

Had he picked Hillary, this race would have been over. Palin is right.

Isn't she the SAME woMan that said ALL Clinton do is WHINE…If Obama wished he would have pick Clinton, It shows she is GLAD he didn’t, just think she still would be in Alaska OVER ABUSING her power, and continuing to threaten those who see her LIES and CHEAT….Yes, it will be nice to have a professional deserving WOMAN in the White House, NOT any WOMAN that wants pity for making false accusation about someone just to WIN votes. If any WOMAN can tackle someone character, then if she so professional, she should have the BALLS to receive it back.

Looking at C. Gibson, she already thinks she is the MAGIC to steal Clinton voters, just by her show of several lies and NEGATIVE actions that in NO form represent me as a women of the US. Those ads her and McCain are approving are all LIES, Obama I got to give it to you…if this was happening to Clinton, the voters of all woman WOULD be OUTRAGED……..WE want more media coverage, we WANT to see the REAL Palin, even her friends in Alaska on C. Gibson said they were NOT committed to VOTE for her….. THAT SHOW THEY KNEW HER AND HAVE NOT DECIDED TO VOTE FOR HER…..

Who is being sexist now, saying 'it affects women in general', 'women in politics', 'doesn't do "us" any good'. We will never be equal if Palin got in because she talks about women as seperate entities.

Obama is the real change as he is from a party that is totally unresponsible for all the probelms that have happened because of the Republican administration the last seven years. Four more years for the Republicans? I just can't believe after what has happened like losing jobs, unemploytment, inflation, not getting Bin Laden anti-Americanism around the world, corruption, tax breaks for the rich that America would even contemplate voting for the same party which is responsible for all this.

Joe BIden will become an briliant VP.

OBAMA / BIDEN 2009-2013.

I am so happy Palin thinks so highly of Hilery. Now if she would stop lieing every time she opend her mouth she might be more acceptable. I laughed at the way she tried to SPIN the PORK Barrow issues in her state that she supported into ligal requests. They are stilol earmaks for special projects in her state and that makes them PORKBARROW. Also why did she have a lobiest workign for her if she did not want to get more moeny? if she did not want the ear marks why did she not return the money? The more this woman says the more I distrust her. It is clear by her sgtatrement about the BUSH DOCTIN that she intends to keep the same OLD FAILED BUSH POLICY. So where is the REFORM? WHERE IS THE DIFFERENCE?

She is just a mouth piece of the NEO CONs and McCain sold his sould to them to try to STEAL this election like it was stollen the last two times.

WE CAN"T AFFORT FOURF MORE YEARS OF FAILURE

If Obama would have picked Hillary, then Palin would still be in Alaska shooting wolves from a plane. She should be thanking Barack.

Of course Obama regrets not picking Hillary…just like, on Nov. 5, John McCain will regret picking you

Great… She had something new written for her. Now we can hear her "regret," as an answer to one of two thousand questions. Palin doesn't think, she regurgitates. Badly.

Where in the world is Michelle Obama? Isn't she going to step up against Sarah Palin?

Are they hiding her? Does she have bad ratings with the Wal-Mart moms? I know they think Michelle is elitist and racist and unpatriotic, but the Dems. should put her out there anyway to defend her tired husband.

Get out there Michelle!!!!!

Anything to get into the white house….
This woman is no credit to hard working, determined and intelligent women. She is an unmitigated disaster!.

Revision of previous comment due to keyboard issues…

Hey Sarah Palin – come up with something original and newsworthy, please! Barack Obama made his choice for VP for better or worse. Why don't you spend some time discussing the issues instead of spewing personal attacks (which your campaign has accused Obama of doing).

Hey pot – meet kettle…

Palin– "Barack called me a pig, it's sexism"…booo hooo.
Palin's audience, "Coldest State -Hottest Governor"
….weee whoooo…. It's all fine and dandy when Sexism is cheering you on when they will vote for you, but she cries and WHINES when she wants to lie to the public about how she feels about it. Just rise above it Sarah, like you say, "Work Hardder"… You are no one that desearves a vote from any WOMAN in this country!!!

He would have. But he don't like White Folk, especially Women…
Too Posh, is Barack Obama…

Sen Obama took his time in his VP choice, unlike Sen McCain who pick his choice based on buying a loaf of bread, so Gov Palin you really don't know what you are talking about, just learn the script of what you are suppose to say on the issues, and leave nonsence crap alone. You got picked cause Sen McCain thinks this election is a chess board. You my dear are a pawn.

Is this means that Hillary Clinton is stepping up? The new ticket obama/clinton08? Or Clinton/obama08? Or Clinton/biden08? ??? it do not matter how democrat want to call there ticket if they cant get along whit each other how are they going to get alone whit the republicans to unite the country? Only one person can MCCAIN

Palin sounds fake. She is just trying to steal Hillary supporters. She cannot replace Hillary. Hillary is a great leader and perfect to lead the nation. Palin cannot reach where Hillary is today. Palin is with a loser and consider herself better than him. The loser needs her to get attention. They are bad news for America. They are out to destroy this country and mislead simple, hardworking and honest blue collar voters. God save America from them.

Hey Sarah Palin – come up with something original and newsworthy, please! Barack Obama made his choice for VOfor better or worse. Why don't you spend some time discussing the issues instead of spewing personal attacks (which your campaign has accused Obama of doing).

Hey pot – meet kettle…

I hope Palin realizes SHE"S NO HILLARY…. and if Hillary had been chosen odds are the GOP wouldn't need Sarah "polly want a cracker Palin"

I think he regrets not selecting Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton now too. I don't care who you are supporting in this election, you still have to admit that was a stupid decision – 18 MILLION votes!

don't get to high and mighty ms. palin….. watch yourself with your comments, they may just come back to bit you……

Obama/Biden 08/12

It's pot shots like these that really make her look like a fool. We'll see which side regrets their choice come time for the Vice Presidential debate – Biden will mop the floor with her.

keep talking decoy. all she is doing is helping mccain avoid looking bad by discussing petty issues and not what is important.

Obama '08

hillary is twice the women palin is

Palin is criticising Clinton for complaining about sexism, and yet all the GOP can do is false claims about how Obama is sexist.

The sound of Palin's voice as well as what she is saying when she uses her voice reminds me of someone scratching on a blackboard…

No, He just wishes the McCain /Palin ticket would stop lying, and trying to engage in a culture war. Get a clue GOV.

Palin is an idiot!!!!!!!! Who cares what she says all that comes out of her mouth are lies.

OBAMA 08

It's more like DNC wished they picked HILLARY and sent Obama home.

Serious buyer's remorse on this empty suit.

It's only a matter of time before Joe Biden pulls out for "personal" or "family" reasons so that the desperate Obama campaign can beg (mommy) Hillary to come save them!

Sarah can't touch Hillary! There is no comparison! If she thinks she is in the same league as Hillary she is totally delusional!

The GOP thinks they have found their saving grace for this election. I can't wait for the debates. She won't be able to hide behind the same 5 talking points she has been trained to repeat over and over again. Biden will wipe the floor with her. My father is a small town mayor of a town of 25,000 people in Illinois. He laughs about the Palin claims of "executive experience." There are a lot of responsibilities as Mayor, but it is hardly prepares you to lead the free world. She will be exposed in the weeks to come. She already has numerous BIPARTISAN scandals. How much change can she bring? Don't be fooled by the "Disney" appearance. She is Bush, Rove, Falwell and Cheney combined, with one small difference- a vagina.

She's absolutely right! Obama is kicking himself now for not picking Clinton. He is way too into himself and thought he didn't need her after 20,000 people on Germany came to see him (in which by the way, there was a concert simultaneously there too that most cable networks did not report). Now all the sudden, Bill Clinton is the person he look up to, and Hillary Clinton is his friend. PATHETIC

a potential VP or President does not know if McCain wins God forbids it, the incumbent President's foreign policy doctrine? US needs to maintain its position in the world stage.

he didnot think he needed her what with all the media on his side
she should never support him after the way the dnc media and liberals bloggers treated her democrate for sarah

No, seriously, are you (CNN online) going to let the Palin interview slide…just like that; without a single comment?

That was a disaster greater than Ike, and you are letting it just…

You wouldn't hire this woman to teach the alphabet to your child after this, and you don't even mention it. What a shame.
At least, say it was a triumph, that'll represent you better.
No wonder things are the way they are in this world. Don't look around pointing fingers, look in the mirror.

She is just trying to stir the pot and agitate the Democrats. Obama is quite happy with Biden. Perhaps, she and McCain both regret her being on his ticket.

McCain FAILED his country when he appointed Sarah Palin. I pray for this country when she sends us to war against Russia, Iran, and the Taliban at the same time. We cannot fight Russia with spy planes. In this future war, American civilians will die. Not just soldiers.

I thank McCain for his service. However, that does not mean I want YOUR son or daughter to die in an unnecessary war that could have been avoided with diplomacy. Afghanistan was necessary. Iraq was not. The most important decision in McCain’s career was to vote for the war on Iraq or not. He failed miserably by voting for it. McCain and Palin are already talking about going to war with Russia. If they are elected, they are certain to take the same approach they supported with Bush which is to shoot first and verify if you shot the right person later. It will be certain death for the United States. We are spread thin in Iraq, the Taliban are still loose, and Russia is gearing up for us along with Iran… If McCain and Palin are elected, I am leaving the United States for India. I will be safer there.

yeah i'm sure he is regretting not picking Hilary. It cost him the election.

No, Sarah. McCain probably regrets picking you. Since the pick was made public, the McCain camp has had to defend your actions time and again, going so far as to outright lie and back up the lies you told and are telling. Unfortunately, he still doesn't understand that the internet makes "lie busting" as simple as a google search. If I were him, I'd dump you like a hot potatoe! You are definitely not doing women any good. If you're the best woman the republican party has to put forth for VP, I understand why it has never happened before. Frankly, if you're the best, I can see why it will never happen again. Nice job setting up John for the women of The View!!

OBTW, Iran can have all the nucular weapons they want. We'll make sure they don't get their hands on a single nuclear weapon! How's Russia "looking" today? You know, you can see Russia from Alaska. That's great foreign policy experience. McBush, you sure can pick 'em!

I think little ms.Sarah Palin needs to stick to examining her own choices and leave Mr.Obama alone. She better be dang glad that Hillary is not running with Obama. Mr. Biden is still caught up in the "gentleman should not treat a lady that way" philosophy so he holds back for fear of offending and Hillary would not be bound by the 50's rule of a gentleman's code of conduct.
you take care of you, Sarah and we will take care of changing Washington

Geeze!

This is the mind games they are trying to play. Everyone can figure out Palin was picked because Clinton was not. If HRC was, then McCain would have picked someone else and they would be barking that Clinton was a bad choice!

DUH!

Come on, cant we talk about issues!?

If I were Palin, I would mind my business about Obama's choice of VP. Her joint ticket with McCain has not won the race yet. Palin should not be too excited. Because come November, America will talk.

Both DNC Macho leaders and BHO are regreting for not picking HRC as VP. My vote only for president HRC.

BYe bye to DNC…for this year.

Palin is an idiot! She has about as much experience to run the Country as I do. I was stationed in Alaska with USAF so that means I have as much foreign policy exposure as she does.
Let's see how she does in debates with Biden. And why is she not having more encounters with the news as she did with Charlie Gibson. This time she may , just may, know what the "Bush Doctrine" is. Anyone who was against the Iraq war knows.
Palin is just another prettty face….no substance….PERIOD!!!!!!!

That's one thing I agree with Palin about, Obama screwed up by not picking Hillary Clinton to be his VP. He may end up losing now.

Even Biden said Hillary would have made a better VP than him. It seems everyone who is smart enaough knows this.

Perhaps Biden should step aside, this way, Obama would be open to bring Hillary in on the ticket.

Obama/Clinton 08!!!

got that right. wouldn't surprise me if he bags Biden for her.

Gosh Sarah, is there anyone else you would like to speak for while you are in that mind reader mode?

Honestly, how arrogant is that? Let me tell you what someone else thinks, regrets, wishes he/she had done?

I think Sarah needs to use her mind reader skills and find some truthfullness buried deep within herself BEFORE she shares her thoughts on what anyone else thinks!

CLINTON IS A GOOD PERSON AND SO IS BIDEN. IF YOU WANT FREEDOM AND LOVE YOUR COUNTRY YOU WILL VOTE FOR CHANGE TO HELP THIS COUNTRY. A PERSON THAT VOTES 90% OF THE TIME WITH BUSH WILL NOT CHANGE BASED ON HIS PREVIOUS RECORD.

LOVE FOR FREEDOM AND COUNTRY VOTE OBAMA 08

I agree, Obama should have picked Hillary has his running mate. He would have won. Not now.

Obama demeaned and debased Hillary. And that's why Hillary is putting out no real effort to help him. Dem. audiences and Obama have begged her to attack Sarah Palin but she refused. She's giving a half hearted effort, just enough to be sure the Dems. will support her run in 12′.

Sarah Palin 12 & 16′

tell this woman to shut up n mind her own business

Two faced comes to mind on this. Just a short time ago you said Hillary was a whiner and now you want to suck up to her supporters. All because McCain is using you as a gimmick for the election. Stick to what you know Palin. Moose hunting, killing wolves by airplane, banning books and firing your enemies at work.
In another month when all the dirt is coming out and your in serious trouble back in Alaska for abuse of power. I think it will be Mccain who will be wishing he had chose differently.

As Plagiarist-Joe biden said recently: "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America." "Quite frankly (Hillary) might have been a better pick than me."

Yep, the best man for Vice President is a woman.

But tens of millions of Americans already know that! The proof is in the ever increasing lead of The Real Americans Team of McCain-Palin in all polls.

Why doesn't everyone just forget Hillary, she is not in the race, the race is over for the nomination. That is all she was in.

She is historically…..out of it……so, people, let, it, go, let her go,…….I hope people and news stations can just get over their fixation of Hillary Clinton….it is over….stop already!

She is a self-centered, delusional twit.

What a hypocrite. She says Hillary was complaining about sexism during the primaries, and then her team and her supporters have complained of sexism since she was chosen VP.

You can't have it both ways.

The Republican Party has become the party of hypocrisy.

she continues to try and bait Obama, hopefully he can figure this out as easily as I can.

It would be such a shame is white women took this political race so personal that they would fall for the trickery that McCain/Palin, Carl Rove and all his lobbyist are using in order to get the same outcome that 2000 and 2004 gave them. This is the very same reason the gas prices are soaring, unemployment is at its highest, global warming is in effect and people that are sick without health care. Our kids will not know their full potential because American do not have the funds to send them to college. Other countries are looking at us in disgust. They will disrespect us even more if they watch this happen right in front of their eyes. This is sad that the presidential race has become a racial race with tricks and distractions. WHEN WILL THIS COUNTRY VOTE FOR WHAT IS IN THEIR BEST INTERESTS.

This is why we love Sarah Palin—–brains, toughness, beauty—the ideal American woman—star basketball player, fisherman, hunter, college graduate, mayor, governor, VP candidate—all while raising 5 kids and all by the age of 44. Obama should be scared, very scared.
And of course he is—he looks haggard and Sarah Palin is totally into his head.

Sarah Palin 12 & 16′

nothing funnier than anti choice, help the rich, no health care palin commenting on hillary. palin is pathetically small in comparison to what hillary stands for. she might as well just come out and say she's here just to try and snooker the womens vote. very interested to see if hillary is willing to come out and condemn this patsie.

Palin makes me SICK.This person has perverted her own words so much,she should ask "God" to guide her to a mental asylum.

Palin is nothing but a dim-witted wind bag who was brought in to distract from McCain's overall lack of appeal. She couldn't carry Hillary Clinton's briefcase and Biden is going to eat her alive, if her Charlie Gibson interviews are any indication.

I'm sure that if he doesn't now, Gramps McCain will soon regret naming Caribou Barbie to HIS ticket…..

and we listen to Palin why?

I'm GLAD he didn't pick Hillary. Because when Obama wins the Presidency (as I believe he will) nobody will ever be able to say that he didn't get there on the coattails of the Clintons.

After her terrible interview with Charlie Gibson she's trying to appeal to women by using Hillary Clinton. As a woman I'm totally offended. Does the GOP think that women are that stupid.

There is something about this woman that truly scares me as far as her leadership ability.

I really would like the MSM to please start doing some real journalism. We the people don't care that she is a self proclaimed "Hockey Mom" or a "Pitbull with Lipstick." These things have nothing to do with the issues that are important. Please stop interviewing her friends and family. Of course they are going to sing her praise.DUH!

And McCain should regret his….. A woman who will misconstrue facts: she is the Queen of Earmarks, kept the bridge to nowhere funds, hired Washington insiders/lobbyist–Reform….that is simply more of the same. Obama–dispatch Biden to the cameras and demand that Palin, woman or not, tell the truth about her record. Obama–stay on point: Broken education systems, broken government, wall street favored over main, courtesy of Bush and McCain.

Obama not choosing Clinton is just another example of him thinking HE is the one… the king of kings… the celebrity everyone wants to see.

If he had picked Clinton this election would be over right now.

I like Obama but come on… do what's best for the Party not just yourself.

well i agree with palin's clinton analysis about hining, and it's also clear that she couldn't care a less about clinton or her supporters, her empathetic comment about clinton during this interview was simply to sway clinton supporters into her camp.

This is coming from a person that doesn't think, but only for herself. She cares not for the party, for Alaska, or especially the American people. She's selfish, pure and simple. Additionally, she's willing to be a tool for the REPUG's quest to keep America divided and remain in power for power sake…not to uplift American…America. Obama-Biden or Obama-Clinton ticket would run circles around McNut and Lipstick's ticket. These two are a piece of works as of late. We all know it. Does she now know the Bush Doctrine? Does she understand world issues? No. McNut has enrolled her in a crash course…won't work. Does she understand domestic issue? No. McNut doesn't know how to approach this problem. So for anyone in company with Palin, don't go hunting. Expecially since Cheney sat down with her. Terrible!

Palin needs to quit bragging about Hillary. And campaign about what she and McCain are planning to do for America.

wow…another hippocritical politician. I'm shocked. She is clearly pandering for the Clinton voters….hopefully they are not dumb enough to buy it.

Sarah Palin needs to face an obvious bit of reality– if Obama had chosen Hillary, she would not be on McCain's ticket now. The only reason she was chosen at all is because she is a woman who can appeal to both the PUMA crowd and the GOP base and get them to the polls. That's it.

Obama/Biden 08

Palin called Hillary a "whiner", now she wants to defend her?

Give me a break!

this comment is nothing but an attempt at manipulation.

Palin is a piece of crap. One day she says Hillary Clinton is whinning the next day she praises her. I mean what is she going to be like in the white house, flip flopping around? First she supports the brigde then she turns around and doesn't support it anymore. she talks about earmarks and she accepted millions of it and even requested for some more. What a fake person.
it's time for Americans to open their eyes and see that she is as fake as Pamela Anderson's breast. On the real, Americans will find out more about her real soon. Oh its coming .

Hillary clinton wannabe, cmon now, she knows she is nothing compared to Hillary.

Sarah Palin thinks that being able to see Russia from Alaska gives her enough foregin policy experience to be qualified to be the vice president. Well I can see the moon, does that make me qualified to work for NASA?

SO THE SECOND RUNNER UP IS TELEPATHIC AS

WELL. MCVILE PICKED A SKANK & MENTAL MORON

JUST LIKE HIMSELF. THINKING NOT EXACTLY A HABIT

FOR THE 5 COLLEGES FOR A 4 YEAR DEGREE GENIUS.

Senator Obama it's a smart man, and picked whoever he considered is best for the VP job, no just a person who will bring votes. The sexest one here is McCain who picked VP candidate just because she is a woman that wears lipstick , thinking that it would bring in Hillary suportes. I think Obama it's taking this election process and the voters more seriously than MCCain and clearly having a woman as a running mate didn't make much of a difference in the most recent polls, the novelty will wear out soon!!!

I don't think Hillary would or will go after Gov. Palin she is way to respectful. 2 awesome ladies!

Gimme a break. Paulin is so unqualified it's scary. Anybody that thinks she's capable and watched that interview should have their head examined.

Paulin also said we may have go to war with Russia when asked.

She is basically a half-wit.

Too late now. It could have been,

Obama/Clinton 08′

but it's,

Obama/Biden 08′

But wait, can Obama "change" his mind?

I hope Senator Obama does not take the bait and respond to her.

And this is newsworthy, why?

Palin-trying to get the female vote off Clintons hard work. NO WAY! Palin is no Clinton and she won't be giving her a cabinet posistion or supreme court nomination either. She is against Hillary's cause.

im sure he does! Hillary 2012!

Why doesn't Palin discuss her own qualifications or better yet, the issues that face our country, than who the other candidate, who has actually faced the voters of his party, chooses to serve as his running mate. I am one of the undecided women voters who McCain thought he get merely by picking a female.

I'm sure obama does regret NOT picking Hillary – WHO could be more qualified to lead AND bring 18 MIL voters along with her.
This mistake will cost the DNC the election. We Told You So!

McCain/Palin

The Gibson interview of gov Palin was the worst I have ever seen. I
lost . a of respect for Charlie Gibson. He sounded likea trial atttorney
going after a Hostle witness. I guess fair anfd impartial is not part of the media these days.
He may of helped Sarah Palin.She handled the questions very well considering the situationI.
I have voted for democrats as many times as republicans in the past
fifty some years of voting but this Media is really making me angry.

FYI: In my opinion Obama made a smart choice based on his weakness( foreign policy). That again shows me that his judgment is better than McCain's. McCain picked Palin as a strategic move.

I watched the interview that she did with Gibson and it was horrible. She seemed to be trying to BS her way through the interview. It was very transparent. After watching the interview I could understand why the McCain camp has been keeping her away from the media. She really couldn't answer the questions. It looked like she was very uncomfortable. Her body language says it all!!!

To all of the GOP women talking about boycotting Oprah because she won't have Palin on her show until after the election. It would probably be better if she doesn't. Look at the interview she did with Charlie. You should know that since Oprah supports Obama then she would tear her apart with the questioning. I actually would like Oprah to have her on. It can only help Obama. Also yes Oprah had Obama on the show, BUT IT WAS NOT AS A CANDIDATE. HE WAS PROMOTING HIS BOOK. Maybe Palin should write a book!

This bigot is going to kill it for all woman in politics!!

She's presuming to know what another person thinks? This is scary.

SORRY, BUT NO. . .CLINTON PROVED THAT SHE COULD NOT BE TRUSTED AS VP.

ONE THING THAT OBAMA IS NOT. . .STUPID!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08-'12

When this woman going to get her act together. Never talk about a plan to face the challenge outcome the country is facing now. Second, it has been revealed there are so many frauds commited while governing Alaska. People wake up. Let all say together as an apprentice Sarah Palin YOU'RE FIRED!

GOV. Palin Another Ebay Moment!

They Just Won't Tell The Truth, Wake Up America.

WASHINGTON – Sarah Palin's visit to Iraq in 2007 consisted of a brief stop at a border crossing between Iraq and Kuwait, the vice presidential candidate's campaign said yesterday, in the second official revision of her only trip outside North America.

Following her selection last month as John McCain's running mate, aides said Palin had traveled to Ireland, Germany, Kuwait, and Iraq to meet with members of the Alaska National Guard. During that trip she was said to have visited a "military outpost" inside Iraq. The campaign has since repeated that Palin's foreign travel included an excursion into the Iraq battle zone.

But in response to queries about the details of her trip, campaign aides and National Guard officials in Alaska said by telephone yesterday that she did not venture beyond the Kuwait-Iraq border when she visited Khabari Alawazem Crossing, also known as "K-Crossing," on July 25, 2007.

Asked to clarify where she traveled in Iraq, Palin's spokeswoman, Maria Comella, confirmed that "She visited a military outpost on the other side of the Kuwait-Iraq border."

Lies and More Lies

I will like to ask Americans to look deep into thier heart and ask themselves, why they want McCain to be President with his history of abandoning his sick wife who waited while he was in Vietnam. some of you called yourself christians but will not vote for Obama because, her loving mother who is one of you married a man from another race. I plead to you not to give Bush and his friend(McCain) another 4 years because of racism(Fear). God is watching. God bless America

If it makes you feel better by thinking that, you go ahead and think that. *eyeroll*

Vote smart this November. Vote good judgment. If you say that our economy is good now, you are an elitist and you do not know our struggle to put food on our bellies and gas in our cars. John McCain that elitist think the economy is good and has no plan to help us. He wants more wars, more tax cut for big corporate that ship our jobs oversees. Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania I know that your economies are hurting and you must vote smart and vote someone who understands your economics’ struggles. It is not time to support someone just for race or gender, it is time to take our country back and get our respect back around the world. Vote Democratic this November if you are a true American who put America first. We need change in Washington and the Democratic Party has that change for us this November.

If he would had picked Sen Clinton, McCain would have not pick Gov Palin and the news media would be so focused on the "dream ticket" this race would have been over but by picking Biden it's a dead heat. Obama opened up a door for the republicans that wasn't there and now he might lose. Joe Biden is just not exciting or interesting, he's been in washington longer than McCain and Obama put together and has done nothing that would shout out wow. As for being a pitbull attack dog that Obama needed, he's more like an old toothless 2 legged dog, where is the excitement in Joe Biden.

"Palin herself has said that Hillary Clinton had been “whining” about sexism during the primary season. "When I hear a statement like that coming from a woman candidate with any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism, or maybe a sharper microscope put on her, I think, 'Man, that doesn't do us any good, women in politics, or women in general, trying to progress in this country,' " she said at a media forum earlier this year."

But yet the Repuglicans are crying sexism aren't they.

I think Palin is right, that Obama does, in some way, regret not choosing Clinton as his VP. If he had, there's no way McCain would have chosen Palin who, at the time, was a clear net to catch disaffected Clinton voters, despite their polar opposite political agenda. While I think Obama made the correct choice in Biden, a tenured statesman, for a vice presidential choice when it comes to running the country, Clinton certainly would have been the better choice in getting him elected. Still…

Anyway, even if Clinton had been tapped as a VP, and McCain had *still* chosen Palin (unlikely a scenario as that would have been), we'd have a set of VPs that could safely attack each other, instead of Biden having to be so cautious on his attacks against Palin for fear of coming off as a bully or a sexist.

Please end the Palin Festival. We've had enough of her for the last two weeks and she has not offered a decisive or clear answer to a single question. She is a gimmick on the ticket and a prop to distract the public. The media owes the country a service by focussing the attention back on to the issues and to scrutinize the constant drip of mistruths issued by the GOP. Enough! Indeed.

Hey that's right without Hillary, Obama is a loser. Oh even with Hillary
Obama is a loser. The roll would have to change. Hillary , Obama
ticket. What a bad decision that was made when we picked this fake
person to run for president. Can't even accept the fact that he is a white
man also. Doesn't care about his own half brother in another land.
You tell me, would you want this man for your leader.
This is why we are Democrats for McCain. And what a great choice he
made for a running mate.. McCain, Paiin 08.

When Obama made his VP choice, he was showing us that an average man is worth more than experienced woman.

Ladies we have a long way to go. What a shame.

You, Mrs. Palin, should thank Obama for not picking Hillary. Had he picked her, you would NEVER have been considered, let alone picked. You were a strategy, nothing more. And you are a poor, POOR substitute.

How condescending! We are all adults in the Democratic Party, and Obama chose the right veep in Biden, just as Hillary would have chosen the right person had she won. I continue to be shocked at the things that come out of this woman's mouth.

Palon is a sick woman! She is far far behind Hillary.

Barack/Biden/Clinton '08 the best team in American history

Yeah right. The only reason Governor Palin is the selection is because McCain couldn't fill a barn with supporters unless he asked the attractive, religious freak Governor to be on his ticket. That's why they ALWAYS campaign together and that's why he wants to get Obama in these town hall style debates so he can speak in front of a Obama's large support group. McCain can't attract a crowd, so he tries to use these fresh new faces to get his pitch to as many people as he can. He's the old political guy in a new political era.

For the bridge to nowhere before she was against it, against Hillary before she was for her – whatever seems most politically expedient on the day…

She says Obama is regretting his choice yet offers no reasons or examples – just like her foreign policy "experience".

Hey, I've been to Canada three times — Why didn't anyone pick me to be VP??

Yeah, it's so great to be a Monday morning quarterback isn't it? If Obama has picked Clinton the McCain team would be hammering her and making up just as many lies about her as they are doing about Obama. And guess what, people like me would still never know who Sarah Palin is if Obama has picked Clinton because McCain only picked her as a female trophy just like he loves to display Cindy as his trophy wife every he goes. You want to talk about sexist, McCain is a dirty old sexist senile man.

Even Sarah Palin under stand how important Hillary is

Obama made big mistake

Life long democrat and Hillary strong supporter will vote for Mc Cain
Hillary 2012 /Mc Cain/Palin2008

Obama has no reason to regret his decision. Joe Biden is an incredibly respected, experienced leader, which is much less than McCain can say for Palin. Yes, the Obama/ Clinton ticket may have been hoped for by some Clinton supporters, yet the baggage that Clinton carries (aka fierce debating and harsh criticism of Obama during their historical campaing together) would have only caused voters and the press to question Obama's morals. By choosing Hillary Clinton, Obama would have seemed to care only for the votes, not for the voter. The Biden decision is just another proof that Obama puts country before power, as Biden would make an incredibly competent president any day.

Listen, Palin ought to know that the only reason McCain picked her was because she was a woman and it would irk Hillary supporters. That's the only reason. How can anyone having seen the ABC interview and the search for the real facts done by reporters not believe she's a flip flopper!

Sarah, they are picking on her because she is a girl. Face it. They're really having a field day with you – aren's they? Men will pick women apart because women are naturally superior than any man. You gals should stick together in being out there in a man's game. Face it Sarah, sexism is alive and thriving in the USA. I bet if the two of you were on the same ticket you'd both win by a landslide.

I gotta hand it to Ms Palin – she isn't letting any of those pesky facts get in her way!

This may be the only intelligent thing Palin said to Charles Gibson. Well, at least what she lacks in terms of intellectual prowess she makes up for in repeating scripted sound bites.

She's just another distraction.

She has been selected to endorse John McCain's policies which are Bush's policy. WHO CARES

Oh really???
Did you ever wonder also if McCain would like to pick you as his running mate? I bet he likes Joe Lieberman more than you.

Palin is thanking her lucky stars Obama didn't pick Hillary. Palin wouldn't have even been considered for the job. Lets get real people. Democrats tried to put a woman in the White House some 20 years ago. Republicans are finally coming around because if it means keeping "uppity" Obama out of the White House, they'll do it. This was a historic pander. The gimmick of gimmicks. Nothing more. Shame on John McCain and his Karl Rove disciples.

If anyone regrets a VP choice it's John McCain. although he wouldn't admit it he probably wishes he would have at least interviewd her a couple of times.

Palin's the one that's fueling the fire of these attacks against her. So the Republicans better not be screaming sexist. If she wants to fight in the presidential ring with the big boys, then let her take the hits.

Whatever! But one thing is for sure, the Obama campaign and others sure owe theClintons an apology for even alluding to them as racists. It was an remains a terrible lie as well as an insult to the relationship they built with Black America. And irony of ironies to tell the truth (and run), is Mccain not threatening to overtake Obama in the race. When we return from Utopia and reality sets in- we'll all see that Clinton should have at least been on the ticket. I think the Democrats have blown a sure thing: President Hillary Clinton.

Perhaps the more interesting question would be to ask Barack if he'd wished he'd picked Palin for HIS running mate. In this event, the interviewer might be served by having "barf bag" ready…

Good grief. Since when do Republicans and Democrats give each other advise on nominations? If Palin states that something is a good for Democrats, it is bound to be detrimental. Personally as a Democrat I was hoping McCain would pick Ron Paul.

I do hope that all candidates will get to the issues. Enough of American Idol style politics.

For the life of me I cannot understand why anyone in America would vote for McCain and Palin, they are liars. The republicans hide behind the anti-abortion argument while endorsing the biggest liars America has ever seen. What is wrong with America, they would rather cut off their noses to spite their freaking faces. WAKE THE HECK UP! We cannot tolerate more of these deceitful practices in America. The Bible says that LIARS WILL HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL…The McCain campaign is an abomination to God…..

Why would Palin regret Obama picking Clinton if she truly thinks Clinton is the best choice for Dems to win in November ? Why would Palin stop praising Clinton only after the GOP showed negative reactions to this praise ? This is an example of Palin's inexperience and willingness to flip-flop. It is going to be a sad day for Sarah Palin when she steps up on the debate stage with Joe Biden.

If Obama would have picked Clinton, Palin would not be running with McCain. Palin should thank Obama for giving her 15 minutes of fame.
McCain has had the luxury of making decisions after Obama makes his decisions first. Plus isn't this old news lets talk about the issues! Opps you don't know anything about that right Palin?

WELL ITS THE VPS JOB TO ATTACK . BUT BIDEN SEEMS TO OUT TO LUNCE . MAN ITS LIKE KERRY EDWARDS AGAIN THE VP DICTAKES TO THE BOS WHAT HE WILL AND WONT DO . JOE BIDEN IF YOUR NOT GOING TO ATTACK THEN GET LOST AND STEP DOWN AND LET HILLARY TAKE YOUR PLACE . WE ALL HAD HIGH HOPES WHEN JOE WAS PICKED AS OBAMAS ATTACK DOG , BUT BIDENS TURNING OUT TO BE ONE OF THOSE DRY GUNPOWDER DEMOCRATS LOL LOL . THE ELECTIONS IN FULL SWING AND JOE BIDEN WANTS TO KEEP THE GUN POWDER DRY , WHOS SIDE ARE YOU ON JOE THE REBUBLICANS ? . GET OUT THERE AND DO YOUR JOB . JOE ACT LIKE A BLOODY MAN NOT A WIMP. obama 08

yes he does!!!!!!!

It is obvious why Obama didn't pick Hillary. He couldn't stand up to her celebrity, popularity, and notoriety

GEE!

Same problem he has with Sarah Palin!

How interesting:
"Palin herself has said that Hillary Clinton had been “whining” about sexism during the primary season. "When I hear a statement like that coming from a woman candidate with any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism, or maybe a sharper microscope put on her, I think, 'Man, that doesn't do us any good, women in politics, or women in general, trying to progress in this country,' " she said at a media forum earlier this year."

Keep this quote handy. It'll be useful to remind Gov. Palin after her running mate and she start whining about the legitimate, policy-oriented, tough questions asked during her interviews. Oh, wait — I meant "interview." She's had only one – and judging from her dismal performance, not likely to be engaging in another.

palin is dangerously inexperienced period.

SARAH PALIN DOESNT KNOW WHAT SHES TALKING ABOUT. JOE BIDEN IS GOING TO OWN HER IN THE DEBATE

She calls HILLARY a "WHiNER" and then turn around and make a PLEA to Hillary's supporters!!!

As a matter of fact – I THINK McSAME IS HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS ABOUT PICKING PA'IN!!! LOL McSAME'S PA'IN!!!!

My nephew – who is of COLOR – lives in ALASKA and I got an EAR FULL of what PA'IN is all about…. she's not ready to be VP of USA!!!

Sarah Palin go grill some moose burgers and shut up.

Noone wants to hear your amateur critique of the Democratic nominees.

You might want to reconsider the choice of your running mate — Grumpy.

She's a liar and a horrible candidate. Bring on the VP debate!

WHERE ARE GEORGWEENIA'S TAX RETURNS????????

Isn't it funny how these republicans can say one thing today an then tomorrow they critisize someone else for the same thing? Sarah didnt like when hillary complained about sexism but today she is "whining" about the same thing. Sarah you guys are going to loose whether hillary is there or not.

Obama has made the right choice. McShame hasn't. That's why OBAMA/BIDEN WILL WIN this election. As to Palin… She should really start preparing for the trial and take care of her own family.

My my my, aren't we just a wee bit presumptuous Mrs. Palin? I guess you're too naive to realize that if Barack had picked, and Hilary accepted his offer of the VP nomination YOU would not have been selected by McCain.

Am I Right?

According to Palin, If your raped by a geneticly Mentally Insane Attacker with Aids….You must have his child.??

Correct me if I'm wrong…

Please.. Wake up America.. !

Of course you regret Palen even if Obama does not… as Joey the Shark is going to take a big ole bite out of little uninformed Barracuda your in trouble and so isnt your party. Joe Biden is a well informed man who is finally getting his due. He fully deserves this attention and his name on the big ticket. Depth of experience and wisdom trumps fake anger/sexism/values lie to us more Palin and McCain oh im sorry who is at the top of your ticket again?… who do the crowds come to see hahaha not you Johnny….sad but lets see what else.

Over confident Republicans, over nervous Democrats but all for NOT lol We got this in the bag so keep your chin up all the way to the White House as we help make history and restore our place in the world.

Polls show its even but polls only take account of people who participated in the last 2 election cycles and does not take into account all the new registered people or cell phone owners.
Polls of Congress that show the lowest rating: Remember all the republicans mad about loosing vote say bad job congress. All the democrats that wanted war to end but it did not say bad job congress. This does not mean they are against the Democratic Congress. Shows they are mad at the remaining republicans holding up progress that we are trying to make.

If you take McCain out of Congress you rob us of one of the only Republicans we can work with, if he is President then you still have the same old, tired, do nothing, cry louder then any other party republicans in office.

I bet Barack wishes he was man enough to choose a woman to stand by his side, instead of behind him. I bet now he wishes he would have chosen a different VP. BIDEN IS BORING! A women and now an ex-democrat

Look Palin, just because McCain picked you because he wanted a female on his ticket just to pander to the voters doesn't mean Obama regrets not stooping to McCains level

Somber and pouty Charlie asked the question…Sarah Palin answered. You could see Sarah Palin couldn't get a read on Charles Gibson as he was trying to come across like he was questioning a little girl. For that reason the interview made me cringe for Charlie Gibson as he looked like the face of 'liberal'.

Obama may or may not regret his choice. But at least Biden is not surround by controversy like Mrs Palin is. I was the biggest Hillary supporter out there, & not particularly too crazy about Obama. But I'd vote for him over McCain anyday. Just because McCain picks a woman to woo the HRC supporters, doesn't mean we are stupid enough to follow the first woman on the ticket. Please give us more credit than that.

I have had ENOUGH of this imposter.

Palin's incompetence is not due to her gender. It's due to her ignorance and inexperience, coupled with her willingness to be deceitful, dishonest, and misrepresent the facts to the American people. We don't need more corruption in Washington.

Paylin is making a huge mistake presuming to think and speak for Senator Obama. Her true immaturity is shining through.

I just read an Email from someone in Alaska that Palin HATES BLACK PEOPLE AND IS A RACIST DOWN TO HER LIPSTICK.

All could could manage for her acceptance speech was a storybook narrative and snarky putdowns. Not one policy position or nuts and bolts procedures to lead anything. Are we supposed to trust her, at a heartbeat away from the presidency to possess the diplomacy and statesmanship to guide America on the world stage? I don't think so.

Oh, come on now Barbie, be honest (for once) . You couldn't possibly have thought that up on your own. Karl told you to say that, didn't he?

Well…i'm sure that more than a few republicans are having a few second thoughts now that the Gibson interview is completed…be afraid…be very afraid…all the lipstick in the country can't cover up what's wrong with that picture…can anyone really imagine that woman sitting at the head of the senate..much less in the oval office..???

As for Barack..i'm sure he's very comfortable with his VP pick…a temperate..intelligent man with a solid character..

The GOP would be howling to the moon if HRC was the VP candidate…can you even guess how much negative mud and slurs they would be spewing with their rove smoke and mirrors machine..??

Throw the BUMS out..!!!

Who is PA'IN to criticize what Obama should have done!!! She better worry about what she's going to do when she lose this race…

NO McSAME – NO HOW – NO PA'IN – NO WAY!!!

OBADEN 2008-2016…. YES WE CAN!!!

And the Country wishes McCain hadn't picked know-nothing Palin as VP.

Ms. Palin, I am sure Barack Obama is very comfortable with his decision to pick Biden as his VP. Any number of Democratic notables would have been a good choice, to include Hillary Clinton. So many of them have the intelligence, education, and background to provide Obama with the support and counsel any President would value.

You, on the other hand, offer nothing but a shrill, negative mouthpiece for the McCain platform, which offers the country nothing different from the failed Bush/Republican programs of the last eight years. The United States needs to pick its image up out of the gutter. Obama will bring to the White House an intelligent, experienced cabinet which will lift this country in stature and respect. It is the younger generation, including my three children, who will carry this election for the Democrats. One of those children is currently in Iraq and he more than the rest of us sees firsthand the waste of our country's resources brought on by incompetence in the White House.

I agree.

But he didn't and now he needs her more than ever in the wake of "Hurricane Sarah".

Karma sure is a bit##!

Palin should learn to respect Hillary. She said very bitter words about her during the primaries and to continue to sow seeds of discontent is completely out of order. Palins days are closing on! I can bet on her swift fall from glory! Look at the scandles being unearthed to project her freefall.
Her tongue is quick to pronounce sharp persistent lies than truth………and remember facts will bring her icy ego down.

By the way Chelsea Clinton is not pregnant…….especially at 17yrs!

Obama should have selected Carolyn Kennedy. Hillary as a VP pick would only have sent many more Obama supporters to McCain.

utterly pathetic.

How much longer can you detract from your campaign's shortcomings, McCain and Palin?

People are seeing right through your insecurities, you two!

Wow the McCain/Palin ticket is just rude, arrogant, and disrespectful.

I don't want these two trying to negotiate out of a nuclear war.

Funny, if he would have chosen Clinton, McWar sure as hell wouldn't have chosen her!

So now the Bush doctrine expert who knows Russia because see can see it knows what Obama thinks and feels.
AMAZING!!!!!!!

"Palin: Obama probably wishes he'd picked Clinton as VP" And the world wishes that McCain had picked someone else!

What does this have to do with the future of our country? This is typical political pandering and doublespeak. How can this ticket claim to be reformers when their actions tell us things are business as usual?! The undertone of the McCain ticket's argument is that Hillary supporters never cared about the issues or the country, just that she was a woman.

Palin, be for real. If Sen. Obama had picked Sen. Clinton, McCain certainly wouldn't have picked you. McCain is just pandering to disgruntled HRC supporters. You got the pick by default. Enjoy the ride.

MCCAIN IT,S ALL DOWN HILL FROM HERE ON.

VP Nominee Palin made that comment with the biggest smirk on her face as if to say "I'm glad he didn't because if he had I wouldn't have gotten my chance at being VP." Question is: Who does she think she is fooling? She certainly is no Hillary Clinton and she is not going to get this Clinton supporter. No way, No How, No Palin.

Well hell, even Biden himself is saying that!! Let's see the liberal nutjobs attack her for stating this too.

What does she know?

I' sure he does regret not picking her . His and Michelle's arrogance alone can't win them anything !

He was warned repeatedly , that he needed her .

You can bet your sweet whatevers that Obama is sorry now that he didn't choose Hillary as his VP candidate. The DNC is also probably sorry it chose Obama instead of Hillary back on May 31st, which is when they pushed, shoved and dragged him over the finish line to declare him their nominee.

Oh well….now, since McCain outfoxed them, they're getting the results of their choices. As someone whose initials are JW said…..the chickens are coming home to roost!

NO HOW…..NO WAY…..NOBAMA!

Clinton should have been at the top of the ticket, not vp. She has twice the experience as Obama. The DNC had to install their candidate and try to push him down the throats of the american people. The DNC never defended Clinton when sexism was used against her. At least the RNC defends their candidate. The DNC does not tell us who to vote for and the dems deserve to lose.

obamas not even in office and hes already made a mistake

Yes. Lets talk about the past and what Obama regrets and what he should have done. Economy in trouble? Who cares? Iraq war? Who cares? Obama's VP choice – yes, that sounds like a juicy gossip topic.

Go Palin! You are the next best thing on E! TV. I support you.

Oh wait, what? She is running for VP???

WE ALSO WISH HE PICKED HER

go home palin Biden is the right choice. I am not saying anything about hillary shes the best but everyone has their own choices and Biden is one of the best from Dems party. obama/biden 08!!!!!!!!!

Wow, Hillary has been dumped by the Democrats. The Clintons have cerlainly paid their dues. but I think that the new kind of Democrat that the Clintons are trying to advocate is not too palatable to the Democratic Party. They need another Jesse Jackson.

What? Another story about Sarah Palin being a self-righteous hypocrite? It amazes me that Barack Obama hasn't thoroughly dismantled this ticket–Karl Rove and company painted John Kerry as a flip-flopper with the broadest brush possible, so it should be relatively easy to take care of two people who seem to have changed more positions than they have kept over the last half decade or so. If enough of Hillary Clinton's rabid base decides to fall for this nonsense and vote on shared reproductive organs rather than shared worldview or political philosophy, this country has no right to complain about the incompetency of Washington, because its electorate will once again prove to be even less qualified to conduct its task of electing the capable.

How many Nation of Islam members will work in an Obama White House?"

That's ridiculous. Clinton would have rallied the Republican base even more than Palin has. If McCain rallies his base that's one thing but for Dems to do it on purpose is stupid. All these so called PUMAs were never going to vote for a Dem anyway.

That's right Hillery and Obama, ignore this little lying woman. If Obama had picked Hillery she sure wouldn't have been the v.p. nominee. Doesn't she realize that she is being used. John didn't really want to pick her he was strong armed by the Republicans. Obama will rebound from this – yesterday John McCain was ahead by two points, now by only one.

The more Palin opens her mouth, we learn that she doesn't know anything. Let's Go Democrats – This is our time!

So now Sarah Palin can read minds. When will she start walking on water.

Palin SHOULD BE IMPEACHED for HER DISHONESTY AND ABUSE OF POWER AND ALSO FOR USING FEDERAL FUNDS TO FINANCE HER PERSONAL NEEDS.

And how does she propose to know what Senator Obama wishes or thinks? Some people slay me… As if this is a viable article. Folks, it's time to put Governor Palin on the back burner and get back to addressing the important issues concerning this country. Hey CNN, how about you ask Senator McCain how he expects to achieve any effective results in moving this country forward by addressing today's issues with yesterday's solutions. Why don't you guys show a little professionalism and start performing some real journalism?

Considering their completely opposite platforms, it's pretty funny that Palin would be touting how Obama must "wish he had chosen Hillary." It would be more accurate if she'd simply say, "Look! I'm a woman! The dems don't have a woman." Please… Besides, anyone wish some political common sense recognizes that if Obama HAD chosen Hillary, it would have opened a whole different can of worms (aka Bill Clinton). I don't dislike Hillary politically, but the truth is Obama would have lost more votes by choosing Hillary than by not. That aside though, Palin's comparison is ridiculous. Been said before and I'll say it again, "You ain't no Hillary, Miss Palin!!"

Palin is going to self destruct in less than a week, every time she opens her mouth. Wait until the debate, you have to feel a little sorry for this woman, she "ain't no" Hillary Clinton.

I think Palin is right. Obama lack of judgement is now making him fight harder to win an election that he had won a few month ago. I would not be surprised if Mrs Obama was the one who resisted any decision to choose Hillary. Black women can be spiteful, mean and unforgiving.

Palin is hiding behind McCain –its like the last few minutes in a basketball game when one side makes a point ahead and grabs the ball and tries to keep it out of play until the buzzer…. If she is so tough she can take the heat….let’s not be sexist and treat her like a pretty little thing that can’t take it…if elected she will have to take it. Will Russia and Iran treat her with kid gloves?

The RNC presenters seemed to bash the media, other countries, other cultures, our own culture. They seemed to be war mongers.

The RNC bashed ‘community organizing’ which is the only way we can help ourselves in the aftermath of a Republican created hurricane scale fiscal devastation – in the aftermath of which they characterize people with needs, often not of their own making, as “whiners.”

Give us all a break! Take them out of our misery!

with the mccain ads attacking obama on immigation does this election come down to illegals getting green cards for their vote mccain/palin you have got to be kidding me. you republicans are going to steal this election i just got a feeling.

Nobody cares….Stick to the issues…education, economy, healthcare, etc.

I think it is time for Obama to stand up and fight back against the lies of John "I was a POW" McCain and the republican party. This election is way to important to sit back and allow these clowns to drag him through the mud.

People OBAMA needs our votes but he also needs our help with donations. Please give what you can. We can not stand on the sidelines this time………….. Get into the fight.

Palin should FOCUS ON HER OWN ABUSE OF POWER IN THE TROOPERGATE SCANDAL instead of thinking about Hillary Clinton. If I remember clearly SHE ACCUSED HILLARY OF WHINING during the Primary , however, NOW SHE WANTS TO FOOL HILLARY'S SUPPORTERS to vote for her ticket. . THAT PIT BULL WEARING LIPSTICK would NEVER, NEVER,NEVER GET MY VOTE. She CAN NEVER STEP INTO Hillary's SHOES, even on a rainy day.SHE IS A LIAR, AND MAKES UP STORIES TO EDIFY HERSELF. Palin is A VERY DANGEROUS POLITICIAN who would place our beloved country INTO THE GATES OF HELL.

Just who the hell does Palin think she is? A real polical pro?

THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY IS I HOPE EVERYONE WATCHED THE INTERVIEW WITH CHARLES GIBSON. I ALSO WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT PALIN ALONG WITH MCCAIN WANTS TO GET RID OF ROE VS. WADE. SHE IS A LIAR AND SHE CANNOT BE TRUSTED SO AMERICA PLEASE WAKE UP BECAUSE THIS LIPSTICK ON A PIG HAS NO CLUE.
OBAMA/ BIDEN 08

It would be wise of you Palin to keep your opinions and arrogance to yourself for the time being until all the skeletons hidden in your closet are proven to be irrelevant to have a negative impact on your boss campaign. Obama picks someone who he knows is capable of giving him advices in needed time, capable of taking over the lead if something should happen to him, and capable of opposing to his decision. So he did not choose Biden just for the sake of winning, but most importantly to rescue America from the ordeal your party has put her under.
Be aware,that you are far from being the best pick for McCain. Don't even think of yourself as being superior to those he could have chosen over you. If it were not for the Cliton's outraged women voters he craves to conquer for a win, he wouldn't even think of you. So you see, he's only using you. And when you fail to accomplish this task for him, you will go back to firing your sister's next husband out of indignation. What advice can you give to McCain?. Right now America is trembling of fear at the thought that you might be president with McCain's heart that might stop beating any time soon. Girl there are issues out there with you and your boss. Don't count your eggs before they hatch.

But though there is one thing your qualification might serve well as McCain VP; it will be to answer the 3:00AM phone call and hand it over to McCain to decide. When you attack Obama, you also attack 20 millions voters who plan to elect him, and at the same time you are ruining your chances to have any of them switch to McCain. Instead of attacking Obama, try to conceive strategies how to attract those voters they hire you to conquer. This is if you can.

Yes!! i said the same thing !!WOW Obama!! you're Stupid and made a big mistake with the 18 millions votes the presidency was secure for you now I can see that you are not prepared to be comander in chief for this beutiful country and when you loose this election you will regretting more by not choosing her.

It is so pathetic and sad to see a man like John McCain willing to sell his own integrity, morals and values to win the election.

Once, McCain was a man to be respected, honored, and someone who was a role model.

Now he is a sad, bitter, angry old man who lies as easily as he breathes. His ads are not only misrepresentations, or distorted, but bold face LIES. He seems to have no conscience, no heart or soul any longer. He is now all about money, power and position to the detrim,ent of his humanness and character.

If he wins in November, I hope it is worth the price.

After her performance in the interview with Charles Gibson, here are some words that should frighten the Republicans: Vice Presidential Debate, October 2nd, at Washington University in St. Louis.

Obama/Biden 08

Sarah's opinion of Hillary is no longer relevant. Hillary isn't in the running any more.

What is relevant is that Sarah doesn't seem comfortable in what she can and can't say yet. My impression of the interview is that she didn't give details in her answers because she simply doesn't know yet. She seemed so guarded in her answers (national security, economy, etc…). I can't wait until she and John speak further, so she knows how to answer the tough questions she'll be asked.

Rule # 1 for candidate and running mate – get your stories straight right away!

On Nov.5, John Mccain will realize that he has lost the election….and lost his dignity. HE will mightily regret HIS selection of running mate, and historians will make fun of this for decades.

This chick rocks!

Are you serious?
What balls "or should i say lipstick'" this woman has.
Did she just say that?
Does she really think women are that 'dumb'?
Please people, not these folks again
not another 4yrs of the GOP.

In actuality, it's in Hillary's (albeit not the country's) best interest if McCain/Palin win the election. It would make her the front runner for a democratic ticket in 2012 against what should prove to be weak incumbents.

It's ridiculously selfish, but aren't all politicians?

I wish Palin would stop trying to relate herself to Hillary! Its pretty clear to me that shes just pandering to win over Hillary's supporters. These two women couldnt possibly disagree more on the issuses. In fact there complete opposites! SO STOP PLAYING THE GENDER CARD SARAH AMERICA ISNT BUYING YOUR PANDERING BS!!!!!

I agree…

But i honestly dont believe that Hillary WANTED the job. Why would she play 2nd fiddle to him??

"Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." Book of Proverbs. Superb words to always remember.

Governor Sarah Palin needs to stop talking about what is best for Obama and who he should have picked as a VP. In addition, I would be delighted if she would stop bringing sexism in the political debate. I believe that every voter is more interested in what she would specifically add to the table if elected as VP with John McCain; and that would apply for a man as well as for a woman.

Palin scares the hell out of me, watch her body language she looks like a child in the candy store for the first time, Palin building a bridge to nowhere millions of dollars, Palin sending troops to Russia billions of dollars, Palin getting in the White House near that red button…

PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, he should have picked Hillary, the peoples' choice.

Now, because Obama and his supporters realize this…..because McCain made a brilliant choice in picking Palin….because she is good and a crowd pleaser……they are giving her hell.

I think we all know by this time who's who and what's what.
GIVE THE WOMAN A BREAK !!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's face it…….mothers against drunk drivers make our streets safer.
People are outraged when they see videos of kids being tased, usually by cops. We frequently talk about bad cops and good cops.
Sarah Palin was trying to make her people safer. What's wrong with that?

Hillary has nothing to worry about and the presidency it will be waiting for her after Obama. McCain dropped his self out of the race after nominating Palin as his VP. His strategy of picking up Palin to pull in Hillary Clinton's votes was not the way to go. A real Hillary supporter real man or woman would know that a good woman cannot be replaced and Palin is not the woman to replace Hillary with. A real Hillary supporter won't want to to see any other woman in presidency other than Hillary. Hillary was a first lady and will be the First Lady Vice President/President!

How would Gov. Palin know what Obama is thinking? What is the matter with that woman?

The McCain campaign has no shame they have made this election into a farce. McCain admits he is going negative because Obama will not hold town hall meetings with him.Who gives McCain the right to decide what the Obama Campaign should do?The news media has allowed this nonsence to go on with out being critical even when the facts indicate the lying of the McCain camp. If the Obama camp did this CNN and the MSM would call it for what it was.

Gov. Palin thought she was a whiner not too long ago. Interesting how thing flip when you need her supporters to back you…

That's absolutely ridiculous. This woman is WAY over her head. I can't wait for the dust to settle when people actually realize her beliefs and views. not her celebrity status, something McCain once mocked about Obama and now embraces.

If McCain elected, he has a good shot of dying in office, and then it's President Palin, in the words of Matt Damon, "using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink. It's absurd."

Not this time.

This just goes to show you, the right wing will constantly tell you lies in hopes that you won't listen to the radio or watch the news to hear these people correcting them. Like they said last night, " a lie can get half way around the world before the truth even gets its shoes on."

Who does she think she is? Maybe she ought to concentrate on learning what her running mate's policies are and less time invoking the name of Hillary Clinton.

Thanks palin for the divide and conquer tactics.

God bless Ms Palin, a role model for my daughters

A strong woman who values life, has a devout family and stands for something other than the norm of the liberal elite

She has been a breath of fresh air and has convinced me and my wife and family to vote GOP this year

We are tired of the soft treatment Obama continues to get, possibly because so many are worried about being called a racist

His issues with his preacher was kept so under wraps until Fox news finally said something, and then the other media outlets covered it but with kid gloves. Any man that could sit in the pews for 20 years and say he knew nothing about what was being said by his so called spirtual advisor, makes me question what will he or has he learned in his 20 months in the senate except how to run for president as the anti Bush

Ms Palin is correct, Obamas only chance of winning was to pick Hillary, but his pride got the best of him

So he will go down as another Democratic loser, this time though I wont have voted for!

Obama couldn't even pacify some Hillary supporters by at least vetting her. His arrogance and hypocrisy shine through like every other politician. Having said that, I believe there are only two people experienced and tested enough to be in this race, and they are John McCain and Joe Biden. Sadly, only one of them is on the top of a ticket.

It sounds like the witch from Alaska will say anything to get HILLARY'S

VOTES….It won't work Ms McSame…..we ain't listening

She is such an idiot!! Everyone knows that if Obama had chosen Hillary, Palin would have not even been considered. Still trying to reel in the Hillary supporters. What they are not counting on is that Hillary's supporters are smarter than they are!

Palin is right, Biden is right, the majority of Dems & Reps are right that "HE SHOULD OF PICK HILARY."
How do you expect to unite this country, if you can't even unite the Democrats. McCain made a bold choice & I am grateful for that.
I'm leaning towards McCain but I will not vote for Barack.
I would rather see a Palin vs Clinton in 2012

Palin,what you talking about now here and you 're under investigation in Alaska.Please have yourself good criminal defender to defend you from coruption.

Biden will make a great VP and let's not underestimate him. Sarah Palin let's wait till the debates and then let's see what you have to say. Joe Biden is a great leader, very intelligent and has great foreign policy experience who will be in a position to give great advice to Obama in the White House and is ready to be president on Day 1. Sarah Palin, the VP pick is not about winning the election , as John Mccain did. It is about putting your COUNTRY FIRST !!

Keep calm everyone. Palin will be better understood in a couple of weeks when the American electorate has had a chance to think about this individual. Judge slowly and relish the final thought.

This "Barbie Doll with a Rifle" is only in this position because of the "tools" God gave her. Not for her stance or record on anything and that is just SAD. I wonder if Hillary was at the top of the ticket and Obama was her running mate would people vote for her just because of the injustice this country has imposed on African-Americans?

Putting Clinton on the ticket would have been risky. Obama was afraid to take a risk.

'Man, that doesn't do us any good, women in politics, or women in general, trying to progress in this country,'

that would be a fair description of Palin herself

And the American People probably wish Palin had a clue about domestic and foreign affairs…I don't know such as the Bush doctrine ( you know the most important foreign policy since 9/11. The interview was lackluster and scary at times.

Clearly, Senator Obama considered seriously his potential running mate, as most candidates of either party have since Vice Presidents were first chosen by parties. Initially, the Constitution called for the Vice President to be an elected official which was the person gaining the second number of votes cast, but this was impractical as you can imagine having V.P. and President often at cross purposes. Yet, since Senator McCain and the Republican Party has failed to properly vet their nominee, I believe we need to consider options that will guarantee this will never happen again. I think we should consider an amendment to the Constitution stating minimum criteria for Vice Presidential nominees, since we can't afford the recklessness that McCain has advocated in a potential President of these United States.

Good try Palin. You will not win over the amount of women voters that you would like to with your psychological tactics. Women who live in the lower 48 can see right through you and Senator McCain. You two are disgraceful and small-minded and offer nothing new to take the US into the future. Your behavior represents one click up from trailer park trash.

The Democratic October surprise: Joe Biden makes a graceful exit/withdrawal for the "good of the party and the country." Hillary Clinton graciously acepts a draft of the party to become VP candidate. Democrats energize. Presidential candidate Palin pales in comparison and she loses election.

I think that Obama should ask Hillary to be on his cabinet staff, maybe secetary of state or maybe another very important roll. Hope so.

i told you so , if he lose the election is because he mistake to be a leader , and making the right choice..

Holy cow, does this woman not realize that what she said earlier on record about Hillary being a whiner and not doing other women any good is recorded and can be played back over and over? Do these people not realize that YouTube exists? Gah! This is almost laughable.

Republican candidates…conduct unbecoming of truth.

Poor Sarah….

She wishes she were half the women that Hillary Clinton is…

It is amazing and unexplainable how arrogant Palin is, on so many topics.

You are still not telling us what you mean by reform all you and McPhony are doing is have a crush on Obama you trailer trash loser

That's okay, Mc90% will wish he had picked Liebermann by Nov. 5th lol.

H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E .
She would say ANYTHING to appease Hillary fans! But she doesn't mean one word of it!

So … Sarah Palin is now adding "mind-reading" to her resume? You know what Sarah … this election is NOT going to be ALL ABOUT YOU?

I actually kind of agree…If he doesn't regret, he's REALLY in the clouds!

Obama is happy with his choice of Biden and stands by his choice. He heavily considered and vetted his VP unlike McCain who showed and continues to show a lack of judgment. So this comment Palin made was just something to get people to second guess his choice, and sort of toot her own horn (don't know why), but please I seriously doubt he is having regrets. Palin is not Hillary Clinton so she should stop trying to pretend she come close to bringing the same qualifications.

Obama/Biden 2008

Pathetic.

oh… so now she knows what obama thinks? based on that interview, she doesn't know what she thinks….

Maverick
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia – a Maverick is a person who shows independence of thought or action; a non-conformist or rebel.
Maverick also refers to: … Pres. G. W. Bush!!!!

G. W. Bush is “The Decider!” He has certainly departed from the conservative Republican past…he has gone fiscally wild – not a fiscal conservative….in the past few days alone – as the national debt total soars, people wondering when The USA will be foreclosed on by other countries holding our “mortgages”, Lehman Brothers faltering because Korean backing was turned down, and Hurricane IKE is bearing down on the Gulf Coast – he announces Billions of aid to Georgia (is he confused about his Geography? Did he mean our state or the nation?) and millions to Haiti – not that we begrudge these devastated people aide – but can we afford more hemorrhaging? How much more will he promise in the next days until he is safely out of office? Can we take out a restraining order on him and protect ourselves???

McCain = More of the Same = 100 more years in Iraq! Is he delusional? How can we sustain the monthly financial surge? – on CNN Tax Experts show that Obama's Tax Reform Programs return more to the majority of people’s pocketbooks – there is no information showing that McCain’s will create more jobs….. We don’t need any more Mavricks – we need serious, studious solicitous leadership. Let’s get the meat on the bones and get it out there!!!!

Leadership, readiness, experience. Both Obama and Biden, and Obama's wife are attorneys, Bill and Hillary Clinton are attorneys…..how in this day and age can we trust people to lead, uphold The Constitution, govern, select Judges without this basic background and experience? When last did Bush, McCain, Palin read the Constitution? Bush has just made it up as he has gone along ‘deciding.’ We cannot afford this….

“In running the sleaziest campaign since South Carolina in 2000 and standing by completely debunked lies on national television, it’s clear that John McCain would rather lose his integrity than lose an election,” a spokesman for the Obama campaign, said in a statement. My comment is: "Its about time!"

Ok God, if you say so. You know best what someone is thinking what someone is not, my Lord.

Millions of Americans continue to lose their homes, thousands lose jobs, millions continue to exist in a life without health insurance for their children, as hundreds of thousands struggle with their existence living in sub-human conditions of poverty amidst terrors of everyday violence in their communities, while thousands of American families mourn the loss of thousands of murdered loved ones in Afghanistan and Iraq – families still trying to find answers to questions over why their children had to give their lives for what apparently appears to be lies told America about WMD that never existed, as hundreds of thousands of American children continue to drop out of high school each year with no hope for a better life here in America.

Obama/Biden 08

Change You Can Believe In

I think it will be John McCain that will regret Sarah Palin as Palin’s questionable deeds come to the public light. It takes some time for a good story to unravel but Palin’s will as the media and the Obama Team examine and expose Palin’s true record on public issues. Check out the statement from the City Librarian that she fired and then was forced to reinstate. Book banning is right up there with the ‘Big Lie’ techniques used by other morally deficient politicians.

.
My goodness, what a arrogant women Palin is.
She is the savior of an old and out of touch McCain.

Obama does not need Hillery to win this election
He just stick to the issues and make clear that America
is better off with a peacemaker instead off the war retorics
McCain and Palin tells us.

Obama does not need Hillery to win this election
He is right on all the issues and has te right judgement
all the time.
If America elect another then Barack Obama they deserve to be
a country that has lost his frends for a long time, stays in
2 wars and having a stagnated economy. I feel sorry for
the Americans who finaly had hope for a better life.

whatever Palin, now you are a mind reader. Don't you get it you only get to be here because she's not.

What a crap? If Hillary was chosen she will not have being chosen by John McCain who is a calculated politician at all cost. Does any one notice how angry Palin was during the interview with Charlie Gibson on ABC. She was so uneasy, it was not fun to watch. When people say she is feisty she is not. What about that silly sound she makes before any statement and blinking her one eye. It looks like when one wants to flirt with someone. That does not come from matured people talking to people in conference or to other diplomat. These type of behavior comes from teenagers or students . I hope she will not do that in debates .

lol Palin is trying to win the Hillary supporters.. Hillary would have mopped the floor with her if she was chosen as VP..but I'm sure Obama has no regrets. He picked the one right for the job. I can't wait to see the debate between her and Biden.. I hope they give her a crash course on the issues before then so she won't bomb as bad.

from factcheck.org:
Energetically Wrong
September 12, 2008
Palin says Alaska supplies 20 percent of U.S. energy. Not true. Not even close.
Summary
Palin claims Alaska "produces nearly 20 percent of the U.S. domestic supply of energy." That's not true.

Alaska did produce 14 percent of all the oil from U.S. wells last year, but that's a far cry from all the "energy" produced in the U.S.

Alaska's share of domestic energy production was 3.5 percent, according to the official figures kept by the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

And if by "supply" Palin meant all the energy consumed in the U.S., and not just produced here, then Alaska's production accounted for only 2.4 percent.
Note: This is a summary only. The full article with analysis, images and citations may be viewed on our Web site:

The truth is that the republicans would not have chosen Sarah Palin if Hillary had been the VP pick. Sarah Palin doesn't even rate in comparison to the woman, public servant and candidate Hillary is. The republicans simply figured out that in order to get the press to focus on their campaign, they needed to pick someone the press would pay as much attention to as it has Barack Obama. And, they have been proven justified in their pick. I cannot believe this country would elect she and McCain- but we did put George W. Bush in office twice, so I have been proven wrong before. I have supported Obama for almost a year and would have gladly supported Hillary as the nominee or VP nominee because she is a woman worthy of my vote. Joe Biden is an amazing public servant and has done more great work in his lifetime than Palin has representing 5,000 people in Wasilla and 650,000 people in Alaska where she asked for over $450 Million in earmarks for her state during her career! Give me a break!

Obama has nothing to regret…and i know he is not regretting….! if you wanna be a good and confortable driver of a bus,,,,, you don't need a drving teacher in the front seat with you,,or the bus will be driven into a ditch….. having hillary as VP would be having 2 captains driving one ship at the same time…and the ship will hit the rock when they are engrossed in a heavy argument….

to be the commander…. you dont need someone who thinks he or she can command better beside you..or he or she will undermind you in order to take over,,, this he or she can achieve through any high or low road….
so,,mrs Palin… you are wrong again on this…. Obama is confortable with Biden… mrs Palin is only trying to stir more anger on the minds of clinton supporters…THIS IS AN ORIGINAL INSTIGATION…category 5 horicane Sarah Palin..

If Obama had picked HIllary for VP, he would be away ahead. We like Biden, but feel he should step down and let Hillary be veep, so we can get the Democrats in the White House.

Obama/Hillary 08

This where hilary should honestly stand up and make history, that is work with the first black president in US
Nganenu

What nonsense! This election isn't about gender or color or anything of the sort. Its about issues – a statement both Obama and Clinton have repeatedly stated.

It is about changing the way this country works and is perceived throughout the world – among other things.

I have yet to see or read an interview of Sarah Palin where she does nothing but speak in cliche's and say nothing. John McCain is really no better and changes his position often.

Whether Barack Obama chose Hillary Clinton or not is really yesterday's news. And certainly, Palin does not compare in the least to Hillary Clinton. To even suggest that she (Palin) comes close to the political skills and track record of Hillary Clinton is absurd.

All I can say is if the unthinkable happened and Palin had to be sworn in as President – we would be welcoming George Bush with open arms. That is not a good thought to go to bed at night with.

Too bad Palin can't handle anything with grace or grit- everything is a so called attack. She should quit whining.

This would be laughable if there weren't so many gullible people believing this very scary woman. She is nothing like HRC and mark my words, HRC on the campaign trail will let people know it. HRC is for freedom of choice, reforms in healthcare, boosting the economy, and is not in the pocket of big oil companies. McCain's running mate is blissfully ignorant and can lie with the best of them and that's why she's so scary. I won't even type her name, as she' s not worthy but just really listen to her interview w/Gibson and you'll discover that the republicans have found someone who actually makes Bush look smart.

p.s. Since CNN.com hardly ever posts negative posts about her, I probably won't see this one up, but I had to write it because I continue to be shocked by the ignorance of the American people that they might fall for the republican lies yet one more time.

Obama is not like McBush just thinking about election on his mind country comes first . Hillary Clinton will have the top an highest job in the country as always a women for all

Nonsence, Palin shold wake as she will not succeed with her devisive tactics against the Obama campaign. Since she was picked,she has not said anything better than wanting to ride on the maturity of Hillary to gain prominence.
OBAMA / BIDEN '08′

I love Cnn and I like you tube

a good one to watch, to add on to what Palin is saying is

Karl Rove on Palin and Kaine on you tube

Citizens of the United States of America:

How dare Ms. Palin say that about one of the most experienced and most tested senators who has ever loved and served his country! Joe Biden is my pick as the best possible candidate for VP. I think she is just now realizing how quickly she is being shown to be a manipulative politician and an insincere person. Every day, the facts are coming to light and her lack of knowledge shows.

Anyone who does not know what the BUSH DOCTINE is cannot, AND SHOULD NOT, be a serious consideration for this most important position in our country.

Please Americans, do not think of yourselves. It is okay to think of your country first, AND THEN, THINK OF YOUR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN. If you vote these WAR MONGERS in again, what will happen to our descendents in the future. Are they going to be living an a United States which has slipped to a second-rate country? Will all the world hate us even more, when we are the aggressors in more conflicts that we could have handled diplomatically?

I'm just saying that we need to get back to the TRUTH–do everything we can to go after Bin Laden and take care of the terroists. BUT, WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER ADMINISTRATION EITHER AFTER THE OIL OR AFTER THE POWER to bring our great nations down to the point where we own BILLIONS MORE TO CHINA and we cannot even support our own people!!

There is such a thing as INTELLIGENT DECISION MAKING by the heads of state, and we need to RETURN to this concept!! Once and for all!!

ENOUGH — after 8 years of EVERYTHING GOING BACKWARDS –
VOTE OBAMA/BIDEN in November!!!

She's just saying that because she is trying to win over Hillary supporters. I would like to think that Hillary supporters will not be fooled by this woman. She doenst care about women's rights or anything of the sort, nor does she stand for anything that HIllary stands for.

Sarah Palin's comment about Senator Obama now wishing he would have picked Hillary Clinton for his VP showed her arrogance and ignorance. But I'm waiting to see if McCain will reign her in or at least tone her down now that more information is being released about Palin and her stint thus far as governor. Yes, she put an air plane on EBay. It didn't sell on EBay, but did end up selling at a huge loss. She paid herself to live in her own home. And now she's saying she'll release her tax records in her own time. Really???

Never mind that she doesn't know what the Bush Doctrine is or what it entails. She's only running for the Vice President of the United States of America. Why should we expect her to know anything about the current administrations foreign and defense policies? She looks good and she's energetic and spunky!

I'm still waiting for something substantive and relevant to come out of her perfectly-lipsticked mouth. Does anybody really want a self-proclaimed pit- bull- wearing- lipstick as our second in command? A pit bull supporting a war being fought because it's "God's will"…

Get Palin out of the spotlight and let's get on to the issues.

Mccain will win this election and it won't be because the libberal hollywood elitist and urban liberal mainstream media helped delivered his message. It will be because of character. America sees now that there is only one person who has ever sacraficed for them in war, in politics in conceeding his personal political interest for a greater casue. John Mccain! I'm proud to see this and I'm overwhelmed with pride.

i am not on either side. but i think sarah palin is as phony as it gets she is like a preditor and america are children oblivious to the danger that awaits them, she is a bush in sheep clothing beware of her

No, I'm sure Obama is good with his decision however; McCain maybe, probably, pretty sure he is having second thoughts of his choice for VP. Especially after Palin's interview with Charles Gibson. Oh my goodness!!! wasn't that terrible. Sorry McCain you choose the wrong person not Obama.

ship that ignoramus out of the country. she could be our secret weapon…a lying moron unleashed on the world. her grasp of foreign policy makes Bush look like a genius. must be the fictitious moose stew.

The comment means that a VP pick should be made ONLY based on partisan political reasons and NOT to pick the MOST QUALIFIED running mate, able to step-in immediately should something happen to the POTUS. This comment from Gov. Palin show exactely the WRONG reasons why McCain picked her. He would rather loose his integrity than loose the election!

Oh please.She is just making those remarks to garner support from Hillary supporters and women voters in general.
Typical of this Republican campaign, spewing whatever they think is necessary to win an election that they know they are going to lose…

I agree with Hillary on this. The less attention everyone pays Palin the better.

The focus should be on McCain who wants to win so bad, he is willing to risk handing over the reigns of Government to someone less than qualified.

While other nations insist on putting forward only the best as leaders on the world stage, Americans insist on those who reflect their lack of intellectual curiosity and incapacity for introspection. All they care about is that she looks and sounds like them.

The nation that inflicted the blight of Bush on the world, not once but twice is about to give us a third with McCain and his lap-dog V.P

God help us all.
