What are your thoughts on the investigation of abuse of power that she is involved in?

Her nomination blew me away, but now Ireally wonder if it's not the shrewdest political move I ever saw.
My hyper-traditional, 70-year-old, stay-at-home-mom mother is over the moon about it. If she's willing to take it that way, I think the balance just shifted towards McCain.
Why is it that bad decisions seem to make to most interesting testimonies?

Dolfan, it looks like you and I are in a minority here. I hear what you guys are saying, and what I have read. But I am not WOWED by the pick like a lot of you are.

One of the big issues in this race is the economy, and I think that is where Romey would have been huge for McCain.

With Gustav coming, oil prices will go up, it will be interesting to see what McCain does.

I am not voting for Obama, but I'm not convinced to vote for McCain yet either. I maybe sitting on my vote.

The reason why I like this pick is because of her stands on oil and some of her stands on the economy. Unlike most politicians, from what I see, she actually does what she says. She seems to be a conservative with financial matters.

Romney was great on finances and okay on social issues. What Huckabee had to say on social issues was great, but his actions financially didn't always match up on what he said (although he was good at witty videos to address them).

She seems to back things up on her actions. I didn't like her just by what she said, I liked her because her actions make her the most conservative person in the presidential race.

Based upon McCain's propensity for non-traditional, unexpected decisions, what if he has a major administration role in mind for Romney? A Cabinet-level position?

I don't all ways agree with you on things, but the little boy from north Alabama sometimes comes up with a good thought.

I think that you may have a point that may carry over with some of the other that didn't make it, though good men.

At least I hope you are right. :goodpost:

My Mom called me on Sat. She asked had I heard Sarah Palin speak yet. She did not hear it on Friday she was traveling from SC back home to NC.

But she had heard the speach from Friday on Sat and gave me call.

She said She was great. And then I told her that she was pentecostal (AOG) and she said. I knew it. I felt God when she was speaking ..


LOL


My mom is 73 and excited about her as VP..


And PastorRob. I hope also it plays out like Pastor G and Mitt Romney land in a Cabinet position.

I do not believe that a President has that much to do with economy pesonally. He makes suggestions. He politics. He signs or vetoes some bills but ultimatley . Economic changes and shifts are just that. It takes 5 ot 7 years for Congressional changes to effect the usa economy.
And how long have we had a Democrat run congress..??

PG from what I have heard and read McCain, if elected, will be selecting a cabinet of a lot of minorities. With that thought in mind Romney would not fit.

Billy - While I agree somewhat with your statement of the congress, the President still has to have a plan. McCain probably has more of the Bush plan with regards to the economy, which in my opinion is not a good one.

The media should LOVE and WORSHIP her then, just like their "Messiah" Obama. The more deceitful and tarnished with dirt, the more beautiful the halo.

Get a grip. This is only the tiniest tip of the iceberg to be unveiled againist Sarah Palin. The Dems are mad, jealous and bewildered.

I have faith that she will weather the storm.

I done it just for you Cpt Jack!!!

No, really, I am just concerned. She is a great pick. However, now you got Baby gate, husband got DWI record (WHICH IN MY OPINION NONE MATTER), however they are going to come after her now.

Democrats will mudsling. It is apparent, McCain said he had only met her once until this past week, and the democrats are jumping on that.

She will have to show just how "tuff" she really is
