    From the time McCain tapped her to Election Day, voters will have had a mere 66 days to assess her qualificaitons for the No. 2 job in the free world. Is that long enough? Good column at:

    From the time McCain picked her to Election Day, we only get 66 full days to assess her. Is that enough time?

    Palin is a small-town girl and acts like small-town people when they get a little bit of power. I wonder how she would act if V.P. of the U.S. She would just be another Chaney, most likely. I think Alaskans feel so isolated up there that they play by their own set of rules. It's kind of like the wild west.

    She is really scary. All the more so because there are way too many folks like "Pain", who don't realize that she represents a threat to our freedom.

    I've been reading some of these scurilous comments and I can only
    say, "Is this REAL the United States of America?".
    The hate and vitriol displayed here are not worthy even of a nazi regime.
    Michelle Obama is proud of her country for the first time in her adult life.
    Just the opposite, I am ashamed of my country for the first time in my life.
    I served in a military career under some very difficult circumstances and I
    can't believe that service was in the defense of THIS!C

    LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
    NOTICE! THIS SO-CALLED 'ELECTION' IS NOTHING SHORT OF A REFERENDUM ON THE CONTINUANCE OF THIS COUNTRY UNDER ITS CURRENT CONSTITUTION. THE REPUBLIKANISCHERS HAVE TAKEN CONTROL OF THE EXTREME RIGHT, AND IF WE DON'T STAND UP TO THEM, WE WILL NO LONGER EXIST AS THE UNITED STATES AS WE KNOW IT. PALIN IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF FASCIST CRONYISM, SHE'S NOTHING BUT A FRAUD, AND HALF THIS COUNTRY CAN'T EVEN SEE IT!!! SHE IS CONTINUING THE 'KULTURKRIEG' STARTED BY THAT A$$ BUCHANAN 20 YEARS AGO. I'VE HAD ENOUGH! IT'S NO LONGER ABOUT ISSUES. IT'S ABOUT IDEOLOGY. I WILL NOT STAND A THEOCRACY ON THIS CONTINENT! EVER!!!! AS LONG AS THERE IS LIFE LEFT IN MY BODY, THE CONSTITUTION, NO ONE'S RELIGION, WILL ALWAYS BE THE SUPREME LAW OF THIS COUNTRY!!! AND I WILL DEFEND THAT DOCUMENT WITH MY LIFE!!! IF YOU REPUBLIKANISCHERS WIN IN NOVEMBER, EXPECT NOTHING BUT WHAT YOU HAVE ASKED FOR - AND SEE FOR YOURSELVES JUST WHAT A WAR LOOKS LIKE!!!!

    I think Miss Piggy climbed the ladder so fast because she has what the people who run America value: an ultra-conservative religious fanatic/lying SOB who comes pre-brainwashed with the Republican party line. Plus the fact that she is a conniving scumbag beholden to the sock garter wearing piss ants who are out to fill the Supreme Court with corporate flunkies like Scalia and the two neo-con wingnuts Bush appointed, and copy Bush's tactic of making sure all the elected attorneys across the land tow the party line. In other words, turn America into a totalitarian oligarchy where they no longer need America's vast moron community, similar to those posting comments on this website, to elect the top one percent's flunky in chief. A win for McBush and Miss Piggy would be another giant step in that direction.

    Saraha Palin is not scary!

    It is 50% of the American people that are scary! Almost one half of this country are telling pollster that they think Saraha Palin is ready to be president!

    What is scary is that this country voted for George Bush in 2000!! and now they think Palin would be a good presidential choice!

    What is scary is that every time John Maccain opens his mouth these days he lies and 50% of the American people don't seem to care!!

    Do they not know that if he wins by lying he will continue to lie while in office??

    Has our country stooped so low that we willing knowing put a lier in office?

    Do we have no morals left in this society?

    Does this lying and name calling not revolt the religious right wing of the party?

    How does it work for John Maccain...Does he believe God forgives his lies in order to help win a campaign?

      Hi "obama girl" it is very sad but it is true that many Americans like us can easily be fooled by good looks and false promises. 8 years of war, recession (they would not admit it), laughing stock of the world, cannot capture Bin Laden, gas prices Up $5.00. Then they will still vote for Republicans to continue our sufferings. ENOUGH!!!

  • Posted By: FRam @ 09/14/2008 3:21:06 AM

    There is truth in the saying "YOU CANNOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER". I thought Ms. Palin is clean. First Troopergate, then firing of chief of police then hiring of classmates who loves cow. Hmmmmm..... Yes she is beautiful outside...how about inside?

  • Posted By: Norlan @ 09/14/2008 3:11:11 AM

    what is her lipstick anyway?

  • Posted By: joinurse @ 09/14/2008 3:06:24 AM

    I frankly do not see what all the fuss is about, Palin is another true politican. She is the Clintons, Kennedys, and probably Bushes all rolled into one. That is what makes people not favor one over the other, all the crap that is in their closets. I am not sure if anyone is worthy of the office, remember when Clinton ran it was not about character. hummm she is just like others only female.

    Apparently "the rule of law" has no meaning for evangalicals - it's simply something to circumvent any time something upsets them personally or conflicts with thier "family values". This woman has an agenda, and she's going to make life difficult for anyone who disagrees and will impose - through edict if necessary - her personal beliefs. Personally I'm sick to death of the evangalical movement, their "born again" hype and their "family values" crap. They talk down to the rest of us like we have no values; I beg to differ. It is possilbe to raise a good family, get a great education and build contributing members of the society without riding a dinosaur. But, they (evangalicals) do subscribe to catchy phrases, which sound wholesome and hard to argue with until you question thier motives, then you'll have your hat handed to you and be asked to leave, by the back door - if you please. This is Sarah's world folks, believe the way she does or get off the bus....!

    An open letter to America from one of the many Ex-Patriots.

    As one of the many growing numbers of Ex-Patriots we look back to our country of origin and weigh in on the heated battle now taking place during this campaign season. In amazement we shake our heads at what was last week???s biggest issue ???LIPSTICK ON A PIG???. Man, you have got to be kidding me!

    Do you people realize what is going on? Within the last several days Bolivia and Venezuela expelling US ambassadors, in turn US expelling Venezuela???s, Russia military training missions in Venezuela. Several of us were together watching Sarah Palin???s interview it left us shaking our heads. Her statement on admitting Georgia and Ukran to Nato was kind of misleading and merely a talking point because although Georgia is eager to join, it is the Ukran government flying solo on its desire to join Nato, being in April, 62% of Ukranians voted against joining Nato. I will not say anything personal against the lady but just to say her comment about being able to see Russia kind of gives her foreign experience, the media over in Europe had a field day with it. She seems capable for a scale of governing a place such as Alaska, but compared to Joe Biden she is light years away of taking on the duties of VP.
    The world is watching hoping you guys get it right this time.

      If McCain/Palin get elected intelligent, decent people are going to leave the US in droves during the next four years. What's the point of staying in a country that run by small-minded, vindictive people with no respect for scientific data embraced by the rest of the world and so little intelligence that they think they can run the country financed with TBonds they sell to China? What is going to happened to the US when other nations won't buy our treasury notes any longer? These people don't belong in B movies, let alone the white house.

    And we shall hand over our future and that of our familys to this trigger happy woman who doesnt know a thing about national security and foreign affairs, not even the Bush doctrine ? This woman is dangerous and appalling !!!! Why would anyone put this woman in a major political party ticket ?! America is already embarrassed with Bush, now here comes this woman who just crawled out of a cave !!!!!!!!!!!

    to phoenix, Az
    Yes Native American rapes are bad in all states that have a large Native American population. Most are done by the whites and never brought to trail. It is a problem that is mainly caused by lack of respect for the Native Americans by the local law and the law in the BIA refusing to press them. this a well documented subject and you can google - Native American or Reservation rapes and learn more.

    • Posted By: Mary Beth in AK @ 09/14/2008 1:40:47 AM

      There was a recent article in the Anchorage Daily News about rape cases in Wasilla, Alaska during Palin's tenure as mayor. While she was in office, and until the Alaska Legislature forbade the practice, the city of Wasilla asked rape victims to pay medical costs for processing the rape kits.

      I have read quite a bit about it. The question is, what has Sarah Palin as Governor done about it?

      • Posted By: ABBYNRML @ 09/13/2008 11:21:43 PM

        She has blamed the victim

  • Posted By: a brighter America 08 @ 09/14/2008 1:36:27 AM

    So, IF McCain/Palin win the election, wll Palin's cronies/friends/cohorts in crime become the majority in the McCain/Pilan administration?? McCain recently made this statement about Sarh Pilan: "SHE IS MY PARTNER AND MY SOULMATE!" I beleive this is the ONLY TRUTH McCain has spoken. Just ike McCain, Cheney, and Bush were/are partners and soulmates, so are McCain, Bush, Cheney, and Pilan!! McCain is too stupid and unaware of what is going on.....the repubs are now attending his/Palin's rallies in bigger numbers.....they are there to see the "circus freak, Palin" and NOT McCain; he is too stupid and demented to grasp that she has overshadowed him and he has become a fumbling, bumbling fool who cannot find anyting to do with his hands but fidget with his weddingband, digging under his fingernails, clasping his hands, adjusting his jacket or tie and all of the same over and over again! McCain is too stupid and demented to recognize this woman INTIMIDATES HIM!! They are both liars, but her lies come out louder and shrill!! Her voice is that of a lying whiner. HIs is that of fumbling, bumbling fool. PS: Isn't a partner and soulmate your lover??

    I don't see how Sarah Palin referring to herself as a pitbull with lipstick, essentially calling herself a b*tch, is supposed to be empowering to women and mothers. I come from a long line of strong women and we do not equate ourselves with animals. Palin referring to herself as a pitbull with lipstick says nothing about herself as a woman. It says something about her character-- or lack thereof.

  • Posted By: katiec @ 09/13/2008 9:42:41 PM

    Saw tonight that the media is even BEGINNING to point out some of Mccains lies..
    Will wonders never cease.
    For two people to throw all integrity away and lie, distort, exaggerate, pander
    just to try and win an election are certainly not who we need to run our
    country. They cannot be trusted.
    It is about survival of our United States of America.

    • Posted By: Fisherman144 @ 09/14/2008 12:43:39 AM

      Unfortunately it seems that many people Republicans, conservatives and some women are choosing to ignore the obvious....the lies, distortion and deceit. They will support and vote for McSame /Palin with blinders on. Can't they see what is happening? Don't they realize that lies told often enough start to sound like the truth? It is just beyond me to understand how thinking people can support this corruption unless they have something to gain from that support. Under oath this perjury would be punished.

      • Posted By: wildlifeusa @ 09/14/2008 1:30:51 AM

        Why will they vote for MC cain?? because they can't stand the thought of having a man of color in the white house... those retarded racists!

  • Posted By: eli67722 @ 09/14/2008 1:25:17 AM

    well from everything i have read i beleive that this is the wrong choice for mccain and for the american people she does not have the experience i would not hire her to run my business so why should we vote for her
