Does Governor Palin's good looks mean she can run the country? Does the fact that foreign leaders think she is "gorgeous" reason to vote for her?

Gorgeous........Maybe that is all that it takes to wooo the male population. A president elected because she is considered gorgeous. From now on candidates may be put into offfice by their looks. Well, then Obama will be president....he is really good looking.

Trust me, he would have said the same thing had it been Paris Hilton. The smile, perhaps, would have been bigger. Oh, and his status back home would have been much higher.

This was fun. Now, is she smart enough, able enough to actually answer a real question? Or just 'ready to lead'?

I guess there is no accounting for taste but if they consider everything else such as Obama's sweetie comment sexist then so is telling pain in that she is gorgeous.

That is why McCain picked her...becuase she is "gorgeous"...have you not noticed that McCain has a thing for beautiful women???? His two wives were former models and now his VP is a former beauty queen....this guy does not need to run this country...he loves money and beautiful women, and lots of power...give him the White House and he will gamble us all away....

Pretty freaking sad. Whether she's qualified to be VP or not, it says very little for the Pakistani delegation. The first comment was fine, the other ones went towards creepy very quickly.

The British Newspaper has reported that Palin had an affair with her husband's buddy. Since the incident, the relationship with the friend has been cut. The British newspaper seems to have evidence. Can anyone pick up on this story? Is there another cover up?

Just goes to show that none of the foreign leaders and dignitaries will ever take her seriously! The majority of them do not even respect or value women any way, so I cannot envision them sitting down talking with her about anything important. All she is to them is a pretty face.

What a joke...this was just a publicity stunt and a photo op!

By: James

James — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 20:48:37 +0000

His comments are telling.

Where are the claims of sexism?

I have never heard comments like this in reference to Condi Rice.

She is not taken seriously by other leaders. There is no starting point that appears to be based on mutual respect.

There is not a person alive who thinks that it is acceptable to stop paying your mortgage, the electric bill, or stop feeding your kids and getting them to school on time just because your mother is on life support in the hospital.

McCain, Obama, and all of Congress are going to be basing decisions on being counselled and getting the "cliff note" explanation of what's going on.

There is no need for the debate to be suspended.

This is the same as the time out after time out at the end of the game to stretch out the game and delay the inevitable in hopes of some type of comeback.

Debate on!

First children and now looks; these are really important issues being discussed! "Zardari then called her "gorgeous" and said: "Now I know why the whole of America is crazy about you." It's obvious he is not paying attention to our news coverage, or maybe he's watching FOX news.

That's not what I would call a comment of respect. She isn't, and won't be taken seriously, she's McCain's pretty poodle. (That's the perception, whether it's true or not, I don't what's in the mind of individuals).
