dominicansoul Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 [quote name='atheling' post='1641420' date='Aug 29 2008, 10:44 AM']Palin is a great choice. McCain sure had everyone hanging. Last night the rumor was that it was Romney. But Palin will be interesting for the demographics - female, NRA lifetime member and avid hunter, staunchly pro life, fiscal conservative, domestic drilling... Interesting that Obama chose the old hack Joe Biden, a Washington insider, and McCain chooses a fresh face for real [i]change[/i]...[/quote] Exactly. When NObama picked Biden, I was like, "That's CHANGE???" HA! What a joke!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he made a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus, "Senator" Obama, has only 143 true days under his belt as Senator. Not 3 years. Edited August 29, 2008 by Madame Vengier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madame Vengier Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Once again, this is NOT just about being pro-life. This woman is a superb candidate for lots of other reasons and we should be excited about every one of them, not just the pro-life angle. Think big picture, people.

MissyP89 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I may have to give McCain a second look now. Dislike him as much as I do, having Palin on the ticket holding at least some weight is a big plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
