Please they are the back room know ashing him to dump her now. They are upset with Joe Lieberman speaking. Please tell me how Judas' endorsement helps the REPUBLICAN candidate? whether her speech tonight is good or bad they want her gone. Because they think that this controversy will take down Republican candidates on the whole ticket.

Answer 4

They did  GOOD !

Answer 5

Nah, the democrats beat them to it by selecting obama and keeping Hillary off the ticket.

Answer 6

No. He picked her because she is not a typical Washington politician. She is a fresh face to the national political scene. She gets things done. Sure, being a woman was probably a big part of the decision. But...she has more governmental experience then someone else who shall remain nameless.

Answer 7

That sounds to me why Dean and Co dumped Hillary

Answer 8

I guess the US didn't land on the moon either, according to you..  

Answer 9

How would anybody "force" McCain to choose anybody?  He already has the nomination.  It was simply a matter of choosing a running mate that would help consolidate his base, which is very Conservative.  But no one believes for one minute if he chose someone else the Conservative base would let Obama win without a fight.

Palin is going to break the glass ceiling, not keep it intact.  The premise makes no sense.  The only way to keep it intact would be if he picked a male.

Answer 10

McCain does not have any "GOP masters", nor does Palin's pick "embarrass women", and when (IMO) McCain is elected the "glass ceiling" will be broken.

But for McCain's pick of a conservative VP, I would not vote for him.

With Palin in the VP slot, I will vote (actually for her).
