		<description>Rick, thanks for that.  I&#039;m a blue dog Dem from NYC by way of small-town Nebraska.  I am head-over-heels in love with this gal.  (See, I haven&#039;t used the word &quot;gal&quot; in 20 years.) I am pro-choice, too (with limits)...  

But I don&#039;t want to turn the USA into Denmark, ok?  And I can&#039;t afford to keep getting murdered on taxes.  

But what I so love about Palin is her unabashed love for her family, country, state....she stayed there and made it better.  

We&#039;d be borrowing her for a while.  And lucky to get her.  

Win or lose, Palin turned history.  Fantastic.</description>

		<description>His speech did not do anything for. Glad I awitched parties when the primaries started. My family, and I cant take more of the same!

He needs to re read the books on promoting change! He has some of the basics for bringing folks together for a common cause promoting whats right vs who&#039;s right concepts. These change elements are not promoted and executed by a strategy of FIGHT, Fight Fight, Fight. His mental ability can&#039;t get him out of confrontational thinking. War, War, War, War, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb! He cant get out of his war school training. When he gets pissed off when he is losing his cause, he slams the door on everything.

He is beyond that of changing his ways!

Finally, how can a man who is a millionare a 100 times over, and a wife wearing $300,000 outfit tell me that they understand our suffering.

If he gets elected, the only thing he will be focusing on is national security and those problems. People will always focus on what they know, because what they dont know is to tough to deal with.</description>

		<description>It seems the the right still only wants to talk about Palin -- not much coverage of McCain&#039;s little speech, and what there was of it has been somewhat unenthusiastic, to say the least.

What, just because he basically said that Bush was a lousy President and that he can do better, even though he voted along with Bush&#039;s position 95% of the time? Is there suppose to be something wrong with this?</description>

		<description>to WHITEHALL: 
&quot;Sure, he was a hero but for once I agree with Jimmy Carter.&quot;

JIMMY CARTER? Wasn&#039;t it the guy attacked by a swimming killer rabit? Compared to this his UFO-statements sound sane. Is he already out of the mental hospital? Haven&#039;t heard about him since his SiFi-memoirs &quot;ISRAEL: HOLOCAUST, NOT SELF-DEFENCE&quot;. You agree with him? Good for you...</description>

		<description>Rotwang:
I never thought Republicans could be uglier than they were in 2004, or 2000. Hell, I never thought real people could be uglier than Ralph Steadman’s illustrations of conservative numbniks in Fear &amp; Loathing in Las Vegas.

Maybe if you didn&#039;t go around using stereotypes from a 40 year old novel by a druggie, your wang wouldn&#039;t rot from underuse.</description>

But 40 years Thompson&#039;s book, the GOP is still the party of plastic robots worshiping an audioanimatronic candidate who thinks it&#039;s 1840. 

John McCain didn&#039;t &quot;top&quot; Sarah Palin tonight. He buried her...and his party.</description>

		<description>McCain&#039;s speech tonight was a major let-down.  Sure, there were good parts like on taxes, but he promised stuff he doesn&#039;t have a clue how to deliver on and has no credible plan.  Isn&#039;t education a local responsiblity?  Why would the president intrude?

His ripping the Republican party was fair game and promising to veto pork was good.  He is clear and away the man to lead us on foreign affairs, that much is clear.

But going on about his military service as so big a deal, so central, was off-putting.  Sure, he was a hero but for once I agree with Jimmy Carter.  And he&#039;s running for President as a gift for his fellow citizens - give me a break!

&quot;Me! Me! Me!&quot;  jeez.  The man has never drawn a non-government paycheck in his life.

&quot;Fight, fight, fight!&quot;  But for what? Amnesity, lost of freedom of speech, compromise judges, etc?  Thanks for reminding me why I had other, better Republicans to vote for during the primaries.  How about fighting the dumb-bunny Democrats!

Plus, I kept drifting away mentally.

I&#039;ll just hold my nose and vote for Palin and hope McCain doesn&#039;t do too much MORE damage.  My energies and contributions will be directed to California politics this year.</description>

		<description>I agree with Dave II that Palin helps McCain reconstruct the Republican Big Tent, and that selecting her for the ticket was a good move in that sense. The Repubs haven&#039;t been able to keep those tent poles steady since Reagan&#039;s day. If she can peel off some disaffected Hillary supporters in just a few key battleground states, it will swing the election to McCain.

One thing that I haven&#039;t heard discussed much: I think McCain selected Palin in part because he&#039;s smart enough to sense that energy policy will be a winning issue for the Repubs this fall, and she can address that issue forcefully and authoritatively... being, y&#039;know, from Alaska, and all. She will give him cover while he flips on ANWR, and she will carry a strong message in favor of increased domestic energy production to the electorate. McCain has a winning hand here. Both his base and the swing voters are in favor of drill, drill, drill. It&#039;s just a matter of letting everyone know that you embrace it. Obama can&#039;t embrace drill, drill, drill, without turning against his base.</description>
