Jim VBJim C,
I've tried very hard to stay out of these discussions. Most on this board would have no idea which way I will vote, but you may force me to tip my hand.
You wrote - "That is until Palin was named VP candidate. She is tremendous."
Unless you're kidding and I'm too tired to get it, that is the dumbest thing I've ever read. She is utterly incapable of handling the job she aspires to, let alone the Presidency. Even most die hard Republicans admit she was a political gamble to fire up the race. It almost worked, until they let her speak. If you watched 5 minutes of either major network interview or any of the "debate", you have to come away knowing she is incapable of this.
Based on this decision alone, I have to question McCain's judgement.
All the other discussion between sides on the relative pluses and minuses of McCain and Obama have some merit. But all logic goes out the window if you think she'd be good as VP (or God forbid, President.)
