Palin Derangement Syndrome!

Yeah right, because I mention that she’s going to be under investigation for abuse of power.

“I’m fairly confident at this point that what we’re going to see is the appointment of an independent investigator”
Sen. Hollis French, Alaskan Senate Judiciary Chairman

WTF would McCain select a VP that’s under investigation.

Since when does the media address governors by their first names/nicknames? Would they call Obama “Barack” (or worse, “Barry”?)? I kinda doubt it.

We need Bobby as VP cause it will make democrats really scared of losing their majority in Congress in November.

Get Mitt on the ticket. Then I can vote for McCain. Otherwise, I’m writing in Mitt and voting for Norm Coleman.

Palin’s done. She got herself knee deep into a abuse of power situation with an administration firing that no doubt is going to lead to an independent investigation.

I think a lot of the Romney-h8n was because many of these guys thought it would increase Huckabee’s chances. Most of the anti-Romney talk will probably go away in the absence of Huck’s chances after the NRA speech.

Exit question

Yes!

McCain/Palin ‘08
Palin/Jindal ‘12

I don’t dislike Mitt, but come on. That train has sailed.

He doesn’t even win us Massachusetts.”

Why would anyone expect that he would? This guy says this as if MA should be the first thing that they would expect from Mitt. Dude – Mass is not going Republican, even if the VP pick for McCain was governor there.

Like Jindal, wouldn’t Palin’s biggest negative be experience (years and foreign policy), somewhat neutralizing that critique against Obama? I mean, if the potentially oldest President picks a veep that needs to be ready on day one and said candidate is campaigning on experience and criticizing his opponent’s lack of experience, why pick a veep with the same length of high office as your inexperienced opponent? Kind of undercuts the importance of it, don’t you think?

It’s good to see he finally got a decent hair cut. It’s good to be the Gov.

Romney would be fine by me, as would Palin or Steele. But Huckabee, Crist, or Graham would be totally unacceptable.

JC Watts isn’t a very good speaker, although Michael Steele would make a good pick. No question that Sarah Palin looks good, but how many people know her? Would she help with any swing states?

He may be a white guy, but what about John Kasich of Ohio?

Do not elect a Republican just because they are black. Please leave such limiting considerations to the Democrats.

Jindal is not to young he is the real deal.People like him are the hope for the future of this country.If we can survive 4 or 8 years of a Obama or McCain term.You go Bobby Jindal

JC Watts or Michael Steele

Maybe Republicans just don’t read black people very well. But both of these men have sympathies for Barack Obama which would upset even the most rockgut Republican.

Does being Republican mean being totally tone-deaf?

Exactly. That’s why I do not particularly like Crist as a choice. He looks like an old, rich, tanned white guy. Depending on whom BHO chooses, that might alienate a significant number of potential voters.

Mitt doesn’t tank the ticket, but he does not bring the kinds of things to it that a female like Palin or a black man like JC Watts or Michael Steele would bring to it. VP has always been about identity and McCain should avoid having another white guy on the ticket this year.

perky

Has this term ever been applied to men? Why not just say we need a woman on the ticket? It would be less patronizing and more convincing.

We need Mitt to run for Teddy’s seat in Mass.

That would be a good idea if workable. However, there is no way that anyone but Teddy could win (except his wife). Mass still believes in the “right of kings”.
