What do you think of Sarah Palin?

[deepimpact2]

Whether there is an old thread or not, I can't resist the oportunity to express my views on Palin again.

First and foremost women everywhere should have been insulted that McCain chose her in the first place. Why? Simple. She was obviously only selected to get the female vote. He apparently thought women were so stupid, that they would vote for a woman, ANY woman, regardless of her qualifications. So he picked someone he thought would just get the vote for him and then settle into obscurity once he was elected so he wouldn't have to actually include her.

Sarah Palin has proven herself to be one of the most ignorant, hypocritical, idiotic, uninformed, out of touch, simple-minded, inarticulate leaders this country has seen in a very long time.

It is frightening that a woman who thought that being able to SEE Russia meant that she had foreign policy experience was this close to having the second most powerful position in this country. It was evident from the beginning that she absolutely no clue about many important things she would have had to deal with as VP. Her sorry performance at the debate with Biden drove that point home. She had clearly rehearsed a discussion pertaining to certain subjcets and was unable to think on her feet enough to answer questions outside of the realm of what she had practiced. That point was also driven home when, in desperation, she asked, "can we please talk about Afghanistan?"

People in support of her tried to point out that she had more executive experience than Obama and Biden. When it gets down to it, no one has enough experience when it comes down to running for president or vice president unless they have actually been in one of those positions and has chosen to run again. In other words, she was equally as inexperienced as she was claiming Obama to be.

I have nothing positive to say about Palin and I can only pray that she isn't stupid enough to actually run for president ever...or VP either for that matter.

Great post! I cannot agree more. I also heard that Mccain was having some problems with the religious right and picked Palin to shore up his support with those voters.
