My First reaction to Sarah Palin - She's Good!
Submitted by bedr1 on Fri, 08/29/2008 - 12:21
While I am still not voting for McCain, I have to admit I like Sarah Palin. She comes across as down to earth and honest. I have looked at her record and she has done very well. She has come from basically the school board to be Governor.
While I disagree with her on the Iraq War, I have to say she puts her money where her mouth is and can back it up with a son that is going to Iraq.
Overall I have to give Credit to the McCain camps - great strategy to Stop Obama with women and change, and to stop the bleeding Bob Barr would cause in the West.

She wasnt chosen because shed be the best for the job
She was chosen to get mccain the disenfranchaised Clinton votes. She was the best woman they could find. The best PERSON of course woulda been Ron Paul

That wasn't the only factor
There was also the Ron Paul factor. He also had to pick someone to try to keep those who voted for Paul from swinging the election against him.

Beats Romey, that's for sure.
McCain may or may not have had good reasons for choosing her, but he certainly could have done worse.

This is the break we've been waiting for. This is a long term tactical error for the NeoCons.

At 4:30 AM Sarah and her hubby were interrupted by a phone call
They were carribou hunting when they got the call that she was chosen to be VP!!!

Watch this acceptance speech
her extreme neo-con stance starts at 1:35.

She's not stupid.
This is not the time to fight McCain. Get the job first.

Red flag!
I'm just beginning to learn about Palin myself, and initially, there are things to like, but when I see that uber-neocon Bill Kristol endorses her, that is a major red flag: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNr_LZpMHqA&feature=related
Here's the Problem with Palin...
Go to the following links and scroll to the bottom of each page where you will find a chart summary of their positions from the VoteMatch quiz.
Ron Paul - http://www.ontheissues.org/Ron_Paul.htm
Now compare with:
John McCain - http://www.ontheissues.org/John_McCain.htm
Sarah Palin - http://www.ontheissues.org/Sarah_Palin.htm
Ron Paul - Honorary Founding Father

After reading
and talking with a friend from Costa Rica...this was actually a Dream Pick for McCain. She is as close to Ron Paul thinking as you are going to get.
This just changed the entire election. My friend in Costa Rica says she is a "Maverick", and sticks to her word...........
So as stated below...if McShame gets in office....maybe the powers above (or Below in McCains case) will take him to his new home, and RP will be brought in too....I can pray can't I??
The best we can hope for under the realistic circumstances
is for McInsane to keel over the day after the inauguration, and Sarah Palin announcing that she is going to bring her mentor-of-choice, Ron Paul, into the White House to guide her policy making.
Hey, I can dream, can't I?
She is good now,
but the Evil Empire will turn her to the dark side.

i agree with you
but i can still sense the good in her. of course she'll reply with "it's too late for me my son." and i'll say something about how i will never turn to the dark side and she'll have to destroy me. we all know what she'll say in return. at least we blow up the Death Star at the end.

Yes, she is good, a person of her word now.
But she will have to conform or be an outcast, time will tell, but I sense a terrible disturbance in the force.

"Blow up the Death Star"!
LOL! I hope we do get that chance! I was hoping it would be at the GOP Convention, but the apparent move to enforce unanimity there makes the possibility seem even more remote.
Well, if she wasn't a neo-con before
she is now. She supports the ass clown McStain.
gottago: Correction " the TERMINAL ass clown McStain"

She may be good, but ..
She may be good, but not good enough to turn the offer down. By accepting the VP slot, she has endorsed McCain; therefore, I could never support her. Not all polititions are evil. Many are just naive and they can be just as dangerous to our freedoms. Too bad we don't have more people like Ron Paul in governing positions; go C4L go!
“I’m fully diversified. I’ve got some under the mattress, some under the floor boards, some in the backyard.”
Really well Ron Paul endorsed George W Bush in 2000
Really well Ron Paul endorsed George W Bush in 2000, I guess we ought not to trust Ron Paul now.
Give me a break - Thats the dumbest reason I have ever heard. In my opinion Palin past sets her apart from the rest of the trash, and if she has to go undercover in a McCain admin to run for Prez, I am all for it.
She was a Pat Buchanan State Coordinator in 1996, while the rest of sheeple were voting for Bob "Dull" Dole or Bill Clinton

Dr. Paul should accept the VP slot
if he was offered. Wouldnt it be better to have Dr. Paul there than someone else, especially if he continued to disagree with him on some issues? Palin said in her speech that she doesnt agree with McCain on everything. That's great.
You're not thinking politically.

And if pigs had wings, they would fly.
You still have yet to make your first pertinent, pro-liberty post on the Daily Paul.
I don't have to.
But I think I did. I said that she is an incremental move in the right direction for mainstream Republicans.
How many more times do you want to get in a little argument with me only to be shown wrong or that you don't know what you're talking about?

Break! She might be, but she
Break! She might be, but she seems to REALLY like McCain. I know she is excited and all that, but there were NO reservations about her seeming accolade after accolade for him. It turned me off from listening to the rest of her speech. I went to CFR and they were all Obama, and our vote AS WE KNOW, is already counted, so what is the point here? It only matters to me whom I vote for. No one else. We gotta know that.
No; sadly, voting for her
No; sadly, voting for her (and McCain) would just be another ringing endorsement fo the status-quo, and a message sent to the establishment saying "We love you! Please give us more of the same!"
