    It is not partisan to say that a vice presidential candidate needs to understand this complex, dangerous world with nuance and depth. Palin doesn’t. And it is up to women to vote her back to Alaska, where she can see Russia, but thankfully not attack it.

    You all might find this youtube video quite interesting funny and scary this person is a heartbeat away fromthe presidency if McCain is elected.. Can’t wait for the vice presidential debates. Hopefully it will be the last of this woman. McCain could of picked so many other well qualified women for VP and we get this.
