What do you guys think about McCain choosing Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate?

well for one she's hot, and for two, well again, she's hot!
Seriously though, I like her.

"She hunts, eats moose (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moose) hamburger, ice fishes, rides snowmobiles, and owns a float plane (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Float_plane).[13] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin#cite_note-Barnes-12)[14] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin#cite_note-Arnold-13) Palin holds a lifetime membership with the National Rifle Association (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Rifle_Association). "

Quote from Wikipedia.

So McCain's wife owns a beer distribution company and his VP is an outdoors person. I'm just too redneck to vote for any one else. :jester:

Great choice for two reasons. Should bring in many female votes for him ans also she supports oil drilling in Alaska.

Great choice as far as a compliment to McCain, definitly fullfills his weaknesses as far as environmental policy goes. Very strategic move as far as pulling in the women vote. The only knock with that choice is that i he may have beniffited from choosing someone a little more to the left to pull in some of those undecided left leaning voters.

She's the only one of the four who can honestly say she's got executive experience. She's a mother and is not a politician. She's a threat to Washington and I honestly believe she'll help shake it up. I remember the noise she made as the ethics commissioner and smiled big when I heard McCain had picked her. Awesome. :D

I think it's a very smart choice. Besides being a woman and seriously trumping and smacking Hillary, she has great experience in a bunch of important areas.




Governor Sarah Palin made history on Dec. 4, 2006 when she took office. As the 11th governor of Alaska, she is the first woman to hold the office. During her first legislative session, Governor Palin’s administration passed two major pieces of legislation – an overhaul of the state’s ethics laws and a competitive process to construct a gas pipeline. Since taking office, her top priorities have been education, workforce development, public safety, resource development and infrastructure. Under her leadership, Alaska invested $1 billion in the state’s education fund and implemented
the Senior Benefits Program that provides support for low-income older Alaskans. She created Alaska’s Petroleum Systems Integrity Office to provide oversight and maintenance of oil and gas equipment, facilities and infrastructure, and the Climate Change Subcabinet to prepare a climate change strategy for Alaska. Governor Palin is chair of the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission, a multi-state government agency that promotes the conservation and efficient recovery of domestic oil and natural gas resources while protecting health, safety and the environment. She also serves as vice chair of the National Governors Association (NGA) Natural Resources Committee, which is charged with pursuing legislation to ensure state needs are considered as federal policy is formulated in the areas of agriculture, energy, environmental protection and natural resource management. Prior to her election as governor, Palin served for two terms on the Wasilla City Council and two terms as the mayor/manager of Wasilla. During her tenure, she reduced property tax levels while increasing services and made Wasilla a business friendly environment drawing in new industry. She has served as chair of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which regulates Alaska’s most valuable non-renewable resources: oil and gas. She was elected by her peers to serve as president of the Alaska Conference of Mayors. In this role, she worked with local, state and federal officials to promote solutions to the needs of Alaska’s communities.
Before beginning a career in public service, Governor Palin worked in the media and utility industries. Sarah Heath Palin arrived in Alaska with her family in 1964, when her parents came to teach school in Skagway. She received a bachelor of science degree in communications-journalism
from the University of Idaho in 1987. She is married to Todd Palin, a lifelong Alaskan, a production operator on the North Slope and a four-time champion of the Iron Dog, the world’s longest snowmachine race. Todd and Sarah commercial fish in Bristol Bay with their children – Track, Bristol, Willow and Piper. Track enlisted in the U.S. Army on Sept. 11, 2007. She was active in her family’s pursuits – including serving as a sports team mom and school
volunteer. She also runs marathons. Palin is a lifetime member of the NRA and enjoys hunting, fishing, Alaska history, and all that Alaska’s great outdoors has to offer.

A good commentary.




With multiple media outlets confirming now that Governor Sarah Palin will indeed join the Republican ticket as John McCain’s running mate, McCain has clearly chosen to play offense rather than defense. Instead of a safe choice, such as closest runner-up Mitt Romney or genial Everyman Tim Pawlenty, McCain took some risk with a relative newcomer to national politics. Palin will inject risk, excitement, controversy, and an unexpected historic note to the Republican convention.

First, though, let’s assess the risk. Palin has served less than two years as Governor of Alaska, which tends to eat into the experience message on which McCain has relied thus far. At 44, she’s younger than Barack Obama by three years. She has served as a mayor and as the Ethics Commissioner on the state board regulating oil and naturalk gas, for a total of eight years political experience before her election as governor. That’s also less than Obama has, with seven years in the Illinois legislature and three in the US Senate.

However, the nature of the experience couldn’t be more different. Palin spent her entire political career crusading against the political machine that rules Alaska — which exists in her own Republican party. She blew the whistle on the state GOP chair, who had abused his power on the same commission to conduct party business. Obama, in contrast, talked a great deal about reform in Chicago but never challenged the party machine, preferring to take an easy ride as a protegé of Richard Daley instead.

Palin has no formal foreign-policy experience, which puts her at a disadvantage to Joe Biden. However, in nineteen months as governor, she certainly has had more practical experience in diplomacy than Biden or Obama have ever seen. She runs the only American state bordered only by two foreign countries, one of which has increasingly grown hostile to the US again, Russia.

And let’s face it — Team Obama can hardly attack Palin for a lack of foreign-policy experience. Obama has none at all, and neither Obama or Biden have any executive experience. Palin has almost over seven years of executive experience.

Politically, this puts Obama in a very tough position. The Democrats had prepared to launch a full assault on McCain’s running mate, but having Palin as a target creates one large headache. If they go after her like they went after Hillary Clinton, Obama risks alienating women all over again. If they don’t go after her like they went after Hillary, he risks alienating Hillary supporters, who will see this as a sign of disrespect for Hillary.

For McCain, this gives him a boost like no other in several different ways. First, the media will eat this up. That effectively buries Obama’s acceptance speech and steals the oxygen he needs for a long-term convention bump. A Romney or Pawlenty pick would not have accomplished that.

Second, Palin will re-energize the base. She’s not just a pro-life advocate, she’s lived the issue herself. That will attract the elements of the GOP that had held McCain at a distance since the primaries and provide positive motivation for Republicans, rather than just rely on anti-Democrat sentiment to get them to the polls.

Third, and I think maybe most importantly, Palin addresses the energy issue better and more attuned to the American electorate than maybe any of the other three principals in this election. Even beyond her efforts to reform the Oil and Natural Gas Commission, she has demonstrated her independence from so-called “Big Oil” while promoting domestic production. She brings instant credibility to the ticket on energy policy, and reminds independents and centrists that the Obama-Biden ticket offers nothing but the same excuses we’ve heard for 30 years.

Finally, based on all of the above, McCain can remind voters who has the real record of reform. Obama talks a lot about it but has no actual record of reform, and for a running mate, he chose a 35-year Washington insider with all sorts of connections to lobbyists and pork. McCain has fought pork, taken real political risks to fight undue influence of lobbyists, and he picked an outsider who took on her own party — and won.

This is change you can believe in, and not change that amounts to all talk. McCain changed the trajectory of the race today by stealing Obama’s strength and turning it against him. Obama provided that opening by picking Biden as his running mate, and McCain was smart enough to take advantage of the opening.

Wow; an interesting move on McCain’s part. Talk about getting your attention! It could also put her in a good position to run in eight years. I have nothing against a woman as VP or president, for that matter. When it does happen, though I hope we get one along the lines of Margaret Thatcher.


BTW, I’d sure like to be a fly on the wall in the Clintons hotel room right about now.

I would feel alot better about her if she had more than just two years as a governor. Maybe if she was in her second term as governor, then I could count that as useful experience.
Lets face it, even I could BS my way through 18 months as governor of AK, the trick would be getting relected. And she has zero experience doing anything in the lower 48.
I hope she does well. She seems like a good and trustworthy person who is honestly trying and will be very good in a few more years, but I think its too soon for her to be next in line for the most powerful position on the planet.

Crap.......(am I agreeing with Sequoia? )..... career politicians have gotten us where we are today, pretty screwed up IMO.

Look at GW.....no, George Washington. He had the vision and knew why he'd fought to help put the Constitution in place.
To his disappointment, two parties were developing by the end of his first term. Wearied of politics, feeling old, he retired at the end of his second. In his Farewell Address, he urged his countrymen to forswear excessive party spirit and geographical distinctions. In foreign affairs, he warned against long-term alliances.

I don't know a lot about Palin, hoping to learn more.

There is no comparing the experience between Obama and Palin, Obama never worked for a living, 3 years in the senate, 2 of those years so far running for office. Palin on the other hand worked with her hands and back, small town politics, state politics and not only survived but did a lot of cleaning house, sh can talk the talk and walk the walk, Obama can only talk the talk.
International experience, something to think about, Alaska has TWO international borders, Canada AND Russia, the Alaskans do interface with Russians on a regular basis. Whats OBama got besides two rock and roll show tours that were the envy of Michael Jackson and his choreographers, hell, he probably used michael's people on the European show stops.:roflmao:

Her husband working up in the oil feilds a member of the local union. Her son a member of the Army deploying to Iraq in a month or so. Not coming from big money like most of the carreer politicians. But comeing from working parents. Plus she loves outdoor spots and stuff. I mean whats not to like about her.........Oh bytheway has it been said that she MILF aswell............

Being pro life her choice was clear to her, and as a father of a developmentally disabled youngster I'll say this for her...

Your Democratic contemporaries would, for the most part, not have had the child.

I'll vote for her right now based on her character and integrity.

Obama can shut the lights off right now...

OH...and she is ONE FINE lookin' ALASKAN ! I got $20 says those nights don't get that cold in her house ;)

The more I read about her the more my vote against Obama becomes a vote for McCain.

Well...nine months ago I told everyone that with the lack of qualified or even interesting candidates for my vote it was going to come down to who has the best looking spouse. If we are stuck with a mediocre President we might as well have some eye candy to watch. I went from Romney, to Thompson (what a trophy wife), and have sort of settle for McCain. I am not a favor of his policies that I view as attacks on working people, his pro-NAFTA stance including giving up US soveriegnty with the proposed trade super highway corridor. But now....

Well the Governor is a very pretty woman...and she is UNION! :guitar:

I've spent the last 3 hours reading all I can find about Palin, not rescent stuff but older articles before she was named rep VP candidate.

I'm impressed

She has my vote!

She is a beauty no doubt, but she is a smart, strong woman who stands by her beleifs. Its not about the "vote" for her, its about doing the right thing.

I think she can change politics inside the beltway and we may get America back.

I agree, from the look of it she is one of the few politicians who actually stands by what she says.

She can also stalk and shoot moose, city raised senators and congresscritters should be a breeze, too bad they are all hot air though.:laugh:
