You are so ridiculous – why don’t you at least argue about something with substenance instead of innuendos.

I raised to wonderful children, at some point after my divorce, I was a single mom of two children and yes one of them was a hockey player, my daughter was in ballet. I worked full-time, went to school part-time, was at every game (moved my schedule around when I could) and has a wonderful family as a support team.

Believe it or not – women can multi-task. Please do not deminish the advance women have had in this past century.

We have advanced to the point where we will see a Female Executive in office.

I am beyond excited about this woman. By the way, her husband is around to help hold the child as well – amazing a man and woman working as a team to raise children.

For all of you women who have issues with this – you are the ones that are backwards. I see her as progressive and showing the rest of us that all things are possible.

I’m independent and you can bet your bottom dollar I am voting for a man with experience and integrity and a woman with experience and integrity.

I’ve donated for the first time in my life to a campaign.

I don’t support empty suits that steal elections from more qualifed candidates because his constitutes felt that it was safer to put a black man on a ticket instead of a woman.

Big mistake.

McCain/Palin ’08

And the one who, in either 2012 or 2016, will be the first woman president.

McCain-Palin ’08!

McCain/Palin

We were impressed. Sure, she read a speech which was written bt sombody else who worked cloesly with her on it. But then, so does Obama, and Biden, and Hillary, and McCain, and just about everybody else in politics.

Ever notice how lost Obama gets when he dosen’t have a prepared speech or talking points to guide him? Or when he doesn’t have a heads-up on the questions he gets asked? His abysmal performance at the “showdown” at the church is a case in point. And he had a heads-up on at least one question at that.

McCain, has already demonstrated his ability to think on his feet. Sarah Palin is an unknown factor in that regard. She’ll have to prove herself in that regard. And she’ll be facing much more hostile questions than the MSN ever had the nerve to hit Obama with.

We’ll see.

What I’d love to know is what the bread and butter Republicans – not the ones at the RCC, not the ones spinning the rhetoric – think of this selection. I’ve heard from some yellow dog R’s that they are very concerned that the VP nominee is this green and that they may not even vote this time around because it reflects poorly on Senator McCain’s judgment. And she is green – regardless of whether Obama is or isn’t experienced – Pallin is so new to this game that one must give pause. You have to.

And I have to say…, there are no winners in this war, there is no victory, ilke this nominee suggested. To suggest that the US has been or will be triumphant is really a disturbing characterization of this world event. I’m not sure how one “wins.” If one combatant loses fewer troops than another, is this victory? Is there a “death threshhold?” And besides, neither McCain nor Obama nor Pallin nor Biden is commanding these troops or writing the strategy. No one wins in these situations and it is unfortunate to hear it suggested otherwise.
