    Bada-bing!!!! Sour grapes. Face it, the dems were out manuvered. I suppose the lady will at least be diplomatic and not refer to a Russian Head of State as a "commie pig"

    Sour grapes, you're right... but it's the McSame campaign saying "I'm taking my ball and going home," because they don't like their VP being vetted in public.


    Saw a recent poll -- over 65% of Americans have no clue about Palin's past performance, her credentials as a 'reformer', or the scandals she is involved in... but almost 70% know about her daughter's pregnancy.



    Are those the kind of priorities Repubs value? The tabloid, half truth, spin-it-to-death stories? It sure seems like those are the ones they are pushing, because they have no where to stand on the real issues.



    I mean, what excites you about McCain? If you make under $250k per year, you'll get a better tax break; some kind of universal health care; more focus on the environment and alternative, renewable energies; focus on actually improving education (rather than a policy with a snappy name that doesn't do anything, like Bush); someone who actually understands the constitution and defends it; and someone who acknowledges that the economy is actually doing pretty poorly for a vast majority of Americans -- with Obama.



    Palin and McCain don't talk about those issues very much, because they can't compete. Their campaign manager even says so... it tells you a lot about the campaign, when both acceptance speeches didn't touch on very many key issues (McCain's) or none at all (Palin).
