Should McCain let Palin go?

No one will top the Clintons' long history of scandal and corruption, and it didn't get Cigar Willy thrown out.

Jeff, 29 people associated with the Reagan
White House (Wed Tech/Iran Contra) were indicted. Remember when Bush 41 had to pardon everyone, Casper Weinberger, etc. in 1989? Didn't think so. How many people were indicted in the Clinton White House? Are you ready? 0. Cisneros was fined for lying about payments to a mistress before he took office as Transportation Secretary and somebody at Interior got in trouble for accepting some tickets to a football game. Of course, Clinton was impeached by the House for lying under oath about having consensual sex with an adult while in the course of an investigation of White Water which went absolutely nowhere which is exactly why Ken Starr asked him about Lewinsky. The Dow tripled under Clinton and our deficit actually began to recede and we ran a surplus. Oh, those were the days.

Palin should be dropped. Her speech was really a zinger fest with a touch of adulation for McCain thrown in and it did little to tell us how she'd govern. Do you remember the 1000 Points of Light Program that honored people that did the work like Obama did as a community organizer? Palin owes him an apology. I wonder how many black friends Palin has?
And I can't believe she mentioned the "Bridge to Nowhere" because she was for it and yet when it wasn't built she still took the money. McCain initially opposed the Bush tax cuts but then voted to continue them because allowing them to expire, constituted in his mind, a tax increase. Oh, he forgot to mention that the increase would've been on his wife.

Hi,

Although I'm Dutch I am following developments concerning your elections with great interest. To most of the Dutch people American voters are very conservative and we can relate more to Obama's ideas than those of McCain. Especially McCain's choice for Palin seems a very bad choice to me (anti aborttion, hunting, no experience, too much Christian insanity). I wish you get the best president for the coming years, and I think that would be Obama.

Gov.Palin is a great pick as I was ready to vote Independent before this. I'm really not that fond of McCain but he hit a home run with Sarah.

Yes, John should let her go... go straight to the White House with him in January 2008 and begin the work of the American people.

I keep coming back to the idea that people will imitate the president and v.p. Both Obama and Biden are good husbands and fathers. Women will be better off if men imitate Obama and Biden.

If we have a rash of teen pregnancies and early marriages, and large families become fashionable again, there will be problems down the road. The U.S. can't tell other countries to control population growth if we have a Pres/VP with 5 kids. I was upset to hear that McCain walked out on his first wife when she became disabled and left her for a 23 year old heiress. If other men trade in their wives for younger/healthier/richer wives, where will women be?

Hell no! Why should he replace her? She is a lying, secretive, religious right-winged zealot who believes in creationism. She is the PERFECT Republican candidate to give us 4 more wonderful years of George Bush!

Who cares if he made the right choice she sure is good looking

The post should be retitled, "McCain Should've Let Palin Go." In addition to all the other bs her foreign travels have been tallied to include Kuwait, Germany, Ireland, and Iraq. The problem is that the trip to Ireland was a fuel stop, probably Shannon, where she didn't leave the plane and the trip to Iraq has been revealed to be a bit of hyperbole. So here's the count: Canada, Mexico, Kuwait, Germany and of course that island from which she keeps watch over the evil empire. Strike Iraq and Ireland from the list. Putin is shaking in his boots. As I've told my white friends, if you cannot give me a compelling reason for why you're not voting for Obama I know the real reason.
On the upside if McCain and the Whiter Shade of Palin win, invest in all of those stocks, RIG, HAL, XOM, that have done so well in the past couple of years. And if you can't afford food, eat the rich.

HOW CAN ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND VOTE FOR OBAMA? HE DOES NOT SALUTE THE AMERICA N FLAG, HE TAKES THE FLAG OFF HIS PLANE AND PUTS HIMSELF ON, HE SPEAKS WITH A FORKED TONGUE. HE HAS HAD NO EXPERIENCE IN FOREIGN POLICY AND IT SHOWS AS HE DOSENT EVEN SUPPORT THE AMERICAN FLAG. WHAT DOES THE FLAG STAND FOR? FREEDOM AND UNITY AND RESPECT FOR THIS COUNTRY WE LIVE IN. MCCAIN HAS DONE ALL THAT AN AMERICAN WOULD DO. HAS OBAMA? AND PALIN IS ONE OF THE SMARTEST WOMEN I HAVE HEARD IN A LONG TIME. FOR THE SAKE OF AMERICA AND FOR OUR FUTURE WAKE UP PEOPLE?

All the negitive press on Palin is going to backfire and people like me who weren't going to vote for John McCain are so pissed at what the media is doing to Palin that I'm voting for her just to spite the slanted bias liberal media and all the so called stars like Matt Damen. We are so sick of the liberal media and Hollywood speaking for us middle Americans. Who put them in charge of our country? Just stop! Obama will lose because we are tired of the Palin slander. Mark my words!

What is the big deal about Bristol Palin and her pregnancy? Obama's mother had him out-of-wedlock also. His father impregnated many women, so what's the big deal with Bristol. At least her baby's father is not a fly-by-night like Obama's was.

Lay off of Bristol. Really, Obama, it is not helping you. You are losing votes by doing this.

All the way McCain & Palin!!!

Iam aconservative Republican andi urge MCCain not to waste any mote time and drop Palin ASAP. She should go. I hoe Palin realise this and step down her slef.Come on JOHN be a man and boot her out.
