SARAH PALIN?!  This is John McCain’s pick for Vice Presznit?!  Are flipping-kidding me?!

That choice is just crazy.  I can’t even believe it.  The woman has no practical experience!  The republicans have been hammering away at Obama for years now on his lack of experience and in ONE fell swoop they pulled that moderately effective argument away!  How can they say Obama has no experience when Sara Palin hasn’t one iota of useful experience?

Ok, ok… I will grant you that she has some experience in LOCAL politics.  She was on the city council of Wasilla, Alaska (pop.8,000+) for four years and mayor for four more.  She has only been governor, like 18 months!!  That’s NO national experience and No international experience.  Holy shit, I might know more about international affairs than Sarah Palin!

What’s more all this business about experience might not even be such a big deal if there weren’t already substantial questions about McCain’s health.  I just keep remembering that his medical records for only eight years consumed 1,000 pages!  There is more of a chance of the country needing to rely on John McCain’s Veep than on other presidents’ vice-presidents.

I think he just offered the dems a slam dunk.  I applaud him for selecting a woman and helping to bring the republicans in to the 21st century but this particular person JUST ain’t what he needed.

What was the problem with the governor of minnesota?  I thought that guy might have been a good choice.
