A few comments on Sarah Palin.

Hilary's supporters are not stupid; this is Bush in a skirt. Andrew, Paris, France Palin: great mom, exec experience, enlivening. An above-average, "average American", with on the job training. But she hasn't the brains for the presidency. The average American isn't up to the task. That's why we're sinking now: a disdain for intellect and reflection. Obama is better for us. George, Little Town, USA Not to mention with every polar bear she picks off with that stupid gun she is helping accelerate their extinction, which is already occurring because of melting icecaps. Is she into the environment, or trophies? Doesn't she know the USA has a policy against assasination? John John, New Yprk, NY, USA Hopefully this will backfire in a big way. Any Clinton Democrat or MOR undecided will not flock to fascist fundamentalist Palin just because she is female. How insulting they think any woman will do to pacify the "femnists", so may as well throw in a reactionary to make the ultra-Right happy too. Archi, Dorset, UK Palin is anti abortion, Pro Death Penalty Pro Guns ! but the most disturbing - she is for drilling in Alaska and upsetting ANWR - check out this Wildlife Reserve! Bush senior since 1989 has been trying to get drilling going - and his son too ! This is about Oil ! and serious Money ! david, Monte Carlo, monaco I smell a McCain trick in Sarah. She is a simple place holder thru the GOP Convention. Tom Eagleton comes to mind. McCain will trick the GOP and after the Convention swap in Leiberman! No doubt!!! Paul Currier, San Francisco, USA So this is the 2nd most experienced person to lead the most powerful nation in the world? Experience - Uni of Idaho, PTA, Mayor of Small Town. Gov of icebound state 3k miles from DC. BTW you forgot to say Climate change denier, anti-gay, NRA, pro-oil driller in Alaska, anti-Polar Bear. God save us Paul, Cincinnati, USA Hey, Lee in Sterling, USA She DID get paid less when she became governor compared to the male governor who preceded her. Know why? She cut her OWN pay and sold his jet on eBay. Then she cut everyone's taxes except the oil companies, whose windfall tax gave $1200 to EVERY man, woman and child in AK.
