Try this for a rejoinder:
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/14/us...s/14palin.html . They paint her
very much as a reformer, but unfortunately also very much a part of the "old
boys network" as well -- it's just that her "old boys" are her old high
school classmates, and they haven't (yet) become particularly corrupt.

I don't think there's any of this sort of dirt on McCain.

There's plenty to admire about Palin, certainly, but unfortunately both
parties are very much guilty of exaggerating their own accomplishments and
taking the words and deeds of their opponents out of context. Early on the
republicans seemed to be doing more of this than the democrats, but it now
looks like Obama is rapidly catching up.

Of course, I suppose elections would be quite boring to the average American
if it wasn't so much of a Jerry Springer-esque spectacle.

Here's a recent whopper by Palin:

supplies 20 percent of U.S. energy...")

Good reason to flirt with her, but not a good reason to elect her VP. :-)

She has prepared a large scale budget before, something which neither
opponent can claim, much less their running mates.


There's a first time for everything?

What is one of the VP's action items on his task list upon entering
office?

Oh yeah.... that's right.... budget preparation.


With lots of help. Plenty of new VPs have prepared budgets without having
done so previously, after all -- I have no doubt that both Biden and Palin
could manage to pull it off.

EVERYTHING the "Retard For Change" "offers" is going to make the
situation the country is in WORSE.


Perhaps... that's the "fun" of a democracy. :-)
