There is one potential running mate who has virtually no down side. Those conservatives who’ve heard of her were delighted to learn that McCain advance man Arthur Culvahouse was in Alaska recently, because they surmised he could only be there to discuss the vice presidential nomination with Gov. Sarah Palin.
Wow… would McCain choose a woman for his vice president? And how would this affect Obama’s choice?

Actually according to the stories, she started leaking amniotic fluid while she was in Texas for a Governor’s meeting. When it was suggested that she go to the hospital she refused because she was giving the keynote speech. She gave the speech, then drove to the airport, flew home to give birth at the small hospital in Wasilla.
Anyone who has had many children and that was her fifth, can attest to the fact that you don’t panic about giving birth. It’s just a natural procedure that women have been going through forever.

The photo of Sarah Palin in white lingerie is a photoshop creation of Kodiak Konfidential blog. It’s not real.
We might have plenty of reasons not to vote for Obama, but we’ve got more reasons never to vote for Palin. Her “executive” experience is being mayor of a town of 6,000. That’s not experience! That’s a joke!
And we should all be horrified that she would fly from Dallas to Anchorage after her water broke. She risked the health of her baby. I’m in my mid-40’s and I have 4 kids. There’s no way a responsible woman would take such a risk. No way!

Horrified?!? Not me! I think she’s a smart lady who had been having false labor pains for quite a few months. She was in touch with her doctor all the time and let’s face it, women have been having children for centuries, and still are, with no help from the medical community.
Her doctor felt it was fine for her to fly home and I think the fact that she had to be induced and didn’t deliver for another 12 hours indicates it was no emergency. No one should second-guess the choice she made with her doctor and husband.
September 1, 2008 at 1:11 pm
“Jane Smith”, I suppose all mothers who don’t give birth in a hospital are irresponsible, too? I can think of billions of examples…
So what if she boarded a plane before going into labor? At least she’s showing us she’s not a wuss, and if need be she could have given birth outside of a hospital.
I don’t know about you, but that seems natural to me.

Aside from all the pregnancy comments, I see McCain’s VP choice as an incredibly offensive to women. Does the campaign really expect us to vote for a female simply because we want to see one in office? I hope people take the time to recognize that Palin STRONGLY opposes most of the ideals that most women vote FOR at the polls! Even the Republicans are calling her an extremist. There is absolutely no way I would ever trust the future of America with someone so closed-minded…man or woman.

[There is absolutely no way I would ever trust the future of America with someone so closed-minded…man or woman.]
You said it! That’s exactly why I’m not supporting Obama! I love my country too much to turn it over to extremists like him.
September 4, 2008 at 8:36 am
Ok ok. So some women are upset that the first woman to have some substantial power in the USA won’t give them exactly what they want. I for one (not from the states) think its refreshing. Im sick of some women claiming they need a woman to start changing (way too many [in my opinion]) things. Don’t get me wrong, I understand, that for a long time women have been repressed. Many things in the recent past have turned around and given women all over the world their rights that they deserve; but it seems now that some women want to take the bull by the horns and jump overboard. Alot of women out there who jumped on the Hilary bandwagon come across as feminists. Its kind of scary.
So what next USA? Black President or woman VP?
Make your choice. Everyone is watching.
September 4, 2008 at 10:50 am
m@, this isn’t about women taking control. That’s what the media likes to say… it’s dismissive. As if all women think alike.
This is about not allowing a person into the WH who refuses to release his birth certificate, his law school papers, his IL state legislature history, his schedule while in IL. There is no evidence that this man has EVER done anything except associate with criminals and terrorists.
There is some evidence that his college education was financed by middle-Eastern radicals, that his books were ghost-written. He won’t even say where he lived while going to school. So this is about our country… about keeping it ours.
We wanted Hillary, not because she was a woman, we wanted her because she was the best candidate. Obama is not!
September 4, 2008 at 11:07 am
How in the world is Obama an extremist? What freaking planet are you on? He is so moderate that it upsets the more lefty leftists.
When you just focus on the issues and not on the men who are running you can clearly see which one is most likely to respect our rights for guns and birth control and which one is anxious to continue our inexorable march towards disaster.

Saying that Palin as VP would be an advancement for women is right there with saying Clarence Thomas is a suitable replacement for Thurgood Marshall in the eyes of black folks.
The nomination has little or nothing to do with Hilary voters. Anyone venturing to guess that it does is either a perplexed talking head (despite appearances by top Republican experts like Newt Gingrich that named Palin as a top two or three candidate) or a very self-absorbed group of Hilary voters.
The move is being done to energize the Republican base, clearly. She has charisma, deeper religious affiliation than McCain (a huge sore spot for him), no voting record to speak of, extremely limited association with the Bush campaign and she is a difficult person to challenge as a result of her political background (very little to attack) and identity (a woman in the role of enforcer is a shrewd move, especially debating Biden).
But as far as Clinton voters, she is nearly a polar opposite in terms of policy and she is also running for an office that is hardly even a sufficient consolation prize for the presidency. I would be revolted to find that Clinton supporters voted for McCain in any significant number as a result of the Palin nomination.

“And we should all be horrified that she would fly from Dallas to Anchorage after her water broke. She risked the health of her baby. I’m in my mid-40’s and I have 4 kids. There’s no way a responsible woman would take such a risk. No way!”
Yeah, she should have just had a partial-birth abortion right on the spot. That would have been much more responsible.

You never know. Regardless of what you think of Palin, each person has the right to vote for who they want. I’ve heard that some guys will vote for her because they don’t like Obama and they think Palin looks sexy. Whatever floats their boat, I guess.

Read what Obama’s friends say and believe — people that he calls his friends and mentors. Then say he isn’t a radical. Look at the history of groups that he was a founding board member on and then say he isn’t a radical. Ever here of the wise old sayings “Birds of a feather flock together” and “Lie down with dogs and you wake up with fleas?” You CAN ABSOLUTELY judge someone from the company that they keep!
Also, Not all women are pro-abortion, and anti-2nd amendment rights. Not even close to all — I would venture it is much closer to a 50/50 split. So Hillary does not represent the views of a good number of women.

I CAN’T WAIT TILL NOVEMBER 4TH WHEN BARACK OBAMA BECOMES PRESIDENT AND MAKES ALL YOU HILLARY PEOPLE FEEL LIKE CRAP. IT’S GOING TO BE SO GREAT TO WIN AND TO RUB IT IN YOUR FACES…..OH THE BLOGGING THAT I WILL DO…IT WILL BE SO GREAT.
September 8, 2008 at 10:48 am
PJ JUST FACE IT YOU ARE A SORE LOSER SO YOU WILL SPREAD LIES ABOUT OBAMA JUST BECAUSE YOUR SAVIOR HILLARY LOST. TO QUOTE BILL CLINTON GIVE ME A BREAK.

PJ YOU ARE NOT EVEN A DEMOCRAT. YOU ARE A REPUBLICAN!
LOL I LOVE IT WHEN REPUBLICANS TRY TO DIVIDE OUR PARTY IT JUST UNITES US EVEN MORE. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK PJ YOUR HATE WILL BE YOUR DOWNFALL.

A Republican? No, I’m an Independent who is supporting the November winner… McCain!
I don’t have to spread lies about precious. He is who he is! Have you seen the polls lately?
September 11, 2008 at 1:40 pm
How ignorant can you guys be?
Do you think Hillary would vote for McCain just because he has a female running mate? Guess what, Clinton lost the primary and now she is endorsing Obama. Do you really think that having a woman in office is worth dealing with McCain?
Not to mention Sarah Palin isn’t that great. She has absolutely no executive experience (she was the mayor of a 6,000 person and the governor of a state with the 4th smallest amount of inhabitants) not to mention corrupt (The Bridge to Nowhere, she was all for it but is telling people she wasn’t).
What I find the most disturbing is Palin’s mix of religion and state affairs. Palin does not believe in evolution, she believes in creationism, she believes that global warming does not exist, and its just God’s will that it is getting warmer, she also believes the war in Iraq is God’s will too. Of course, it should go without saying that Sarah Palin is anti-choice and anti- gay marriage.
If you are all really feminists and strive for the advancement of females in politics you will not vote for Sarah Palin. You will not vote for someone who believes that a women was created from the rib of a man. You will not vote for someone who denies the existence of one of our earths biggest problems today (global warming) leaving it for our daughters and sons to deal with. If you really care about our country, and the future woman leaders of the world you will not vote for someone who thinks wars are “God’s will” rather than the will of the idiotic power-thirsty president who declares it, you will not vote for someone who wishes to prevent your daughter on having a choice about what to do with her own body or tell her who she may and may not marry.
I could go on and on about Sarah Palin. I could talk about how she attended 6 different colleges (and the mystery of why she couldnt stay at one for more than a year, I could talk about her disturbing hunting policies and how she thinks that you should be able to hunt with planes using an automatic rifle(and hunting is bad enough on its own, but using planes just takes the sport out of it) or how ludicrous her off shore drilling policies are, but frankly, I’m a 16 year old girl and I have homework to do. I urge you all to make the right choice and avoid voting for Sarah Palin at all costs because I cannot do this myself. Think about who Hillary Clinton would vote for, an old man (McCain) and an anti-feminist Alaskan hunting Nazi (Palin), or a pro-choice, pro-woman candidate (Obama) running with powerful and experienced vice president (Biden).

To Sir Todd
Sir Todd…you’ve had 4 children and you still can’t understand what you body is telling you? I feel sorry for you.
As for abortion.
In the generations to come across this planet, people are going to look back at this age as a massacre of the innocent unborn. Our “era” will be looked upon as a people who murdered our own kind and thought it was “much more responsible”.
September 13, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Gemma, I don’t give a rat’s ass who Hillary wants me to vote for, nor do most of the women I know. They respect her and know she has a job to do to keep her future prospects open.
Please don’t come on my site with your super-long posts that the Obama campaign told you to write and use up our space. Who wants to read the same old crap every day that you Obamabots keep spewing out? Not us!
Do some research! Don’t just copy and paste what you’re told to write. Thanks.

that has got to be the most doctored photo ive ever seen lol the skin tone aint even right? who is that really? these computer geeks got way too much time on their hands, and are still only ONE vote.

Here is the only thing Hillary supporters should focus on: IF Obama is elected, Hillary will NEVER be President of the United States. Do the math, she’s what 61? IF Obama is elected he will be the incumbent and given a FREE pass next primary (2012). Hill will be about 70 years old before she ever has a chance to run again. What are the chances that a 70 year old woman will be elected in 2016? Think about it. It’s entirely up to Hillary supporters to pick the next 2 presidents. If we pick Obama, Hillary will always be thought of as a foot note…a former first lady… and never given her due. The only reason she is touring the country right now is so Obama will pay off the 14 million dollar debt she ran up because of the primary – A primary she won and was cheated out of by the FLA-MICH factor. That money WOULD have been hers (and 10 fold more). These are the facts of the matter. The final slap was Obama selecting Biden. I for one will not vote for Obama. It was the Clintons who helped launch his appearance on the National stage….and this is the thanks they get?

“Her doctor felt it was fine for her to fly home and I think the fact that she had to be induced and didn’t deliver for another 12 hours indicates it was no emergency. No one should second-guess the choice she made with her doctor and husband.”
From #8 in support of Gov. Palin
Is it safe to say Gov. Palin is a proponent of womens rights to choose during pregnancy – no matter the circumstance?

ATTENTION REPUBLICANS:
RE: SARAH PALIN
Obviously there has been a HUGE mistake…..
Palin’s Dribble, Weasel Wording, Mush-Mush, Asssss-Backwards speak Cleary demonstrates who carries the Down Syndrome trait in her family, because of this we (the democrats) will allow you to send her back to Wacky-silla without prejudice and select another candidate.
For this consideration the Republicans agree to sell Alaska to Russia (with Palin) and never mention the State of Alaska or her again.
The Democrats
