But if you stand behind this lady, good for you. BTW, and I hate to be the one to tell you this, she's blowing this election for you and yours, and has become a laughingstock even among your own party (in much the way the wooden John Kerry was in '04).
i think palin has been advised to not give specifics . her advisors have handled her very poorly and i think she is just so afraid of that "gotcha" question at this point. do you honestly believe that the governor of alaska, and a former sports journalist, does not read any sort of news? i think the debate tonight will tell a lot if she strays away from the defensive stance shes been in and lets "loose" per say.
once again the jokes write themselves...
glad to know you know so much about my own party. you'd think you guys won already.
Her Couric interview sounded like me when I've interviewed for a job I wasn't qualified for.

how was her not saying what papers she reads "out of her depth"?
best palin analogy i've heard recently: her answers were like "a high-schooler trying to BS her way through a book report for a book she didn't read".
surely you cant actually mean this stuff you are saying.
No, I actually have interviewed for jobs that I wasn't qualified for.

you dont think the name chaz has a "bro/jock" feel to it? really?
Originally posted by manimtired:the problem is, at this point anything beyond "how are you today?" is potentially a gotcha question.

i must admit, you gotta admire GOP strategists. candidate can't deal with simple questions? re-brand the questions as "gotchas" - problem solved! it's all a media conspiracy to put words in her mouth! she's trying to answer in vague generalities, and they're cornering her into actually answering the question.
because i can't link enough to this article: What it's like to debate Sarah Palin.
Originally posted by manimtired:i know, that would be like saying that the former governor of texas doesn't read newspapers… oh, wait. FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!!!
do you honestly believe that the governor of alaska, and a former sports journalist, does not read any sort of news?

Originally posted by manimtired:not that this is of any relevance, but not really. a lot of my friends over the years have called me Chaz (my real name is Charlie, fyi) and i'm far from being a "bro\jock", and I'm sure they would not characterize me as such.
you dont think the name chaz has a "bro/jock" feel to it? really?
it's a screen name. get over it. now let's get back to talking about what a bafoon your candidate is for choosing such an unqualified running mate.
sorry chaz. would you say biden is more qualified to be president than obama?
by about 1,000 times, yes. in fact, i think he might be more capable than Obama.
Originally posted by manimtired:From a standpoint of experince probably yes. From an electability standpoint, no.
sorry chaz. would you say biden is more qualified to be president than obama?
so obama is just an empty suit capable of giving a good speech to get elected. i hear ya..
