McCain and his "VP"
News just in that McCain chose his VP running mate. A woman who was a PTA mom and slowly went up the ranks to Governor, right before being mayor of a town of fishermen of 3000 people. Is this the experience we want? This was a fabulous move for the McCain campaign, right after the DNC picking a VP that would draw a lot of publicity. But you Hillary supporters, don't turn your backs on the party that gave you life. Don't let this seethrough act that McCain is pulling fool you. This woman stands for nothing that the democratic party is about. She is totally opposite on Hillary's issues, even if she did do some major name dropping in her speech. She is pro life, she is for women not having equal pay, she is not for universal health care. Before you vote for McCain ask who is going to benefit from these policies or are we going to have the same four years as the last four years? Don't vote for him because you think in four years you can boot him out and put Hillary in his place. Don't be selfish. Think of the people who can no longer go to the doctor because the prices now are way to high and they aren't covered in insurance, think of the intelligence wasted as the smartest young people in the community fail to go to college as it has become too expensive, think of the people who live off the minimum wage with inflation blossoming all around them, think of the women who are paid less then men with lower jobs, think of the minorities racial tension and anti-unity, think of all the soldiers dying in a meaningless war which started in a lie, and think of all the women who is raped or with incest have to have that child. These are the problems we as a country face if McCain is elected. Think to yourself who you think the better choice is. I can't vote, I am 17, but you can. You have an opportunity to give to the young people a chance to live, to be able to have a powerful, educational, non-soldier, life. I will be living with your choice through my college years. It's your decision.

I'm a strong adversary of Sarah Palin, but you should consider what little time Barack Obama has spent in the Senate before you hound Palin for her inexperience. Just because she doesn't have extensive practice in governmental affairs is no reason to deem her incapable, just as Obama's capability is apparent in spite of the fact that he's relatively new to national politics.
The reasons to hate Palin are because of her stance on abortion, her ideas about foreign affairs, and (most importantly) her strong advocacy toward drilling oil. This woman doesn't believe that humans are the cause of global warming and wants to continue drilling for as long as possible. Apparently, she also sued the Bush administration for listing polar bears as an extinct species.
You're right that Palin is a pathetic choice for the Republican VP, but please don't blame it on experience. Blame it on her opinions.
