  3. NO

    McCain wants to win

    Romney is Romney

    Mormons are mormons

    who cares about some relgion or cult?

    just pick the VEEP  who is going to get the most voter approval

    it is not rocket science

  4. No, he 'didn't' pick Romney because he's a mormon

  5. No, because Romney had gone after McCain pretty hard in the primaries,  he didn't want to make the same mistake Obama did.  McCain will be using Bidens, and Hillary's words against him

  6. I think he did it to spite Karl Rove who wanted Mittens.   Rumor has it that McCain's first pick would have been Lieberman.   The Bush people were backing Romney and McCain selected Palin to assert his independance.

    Otherwise its pandering to the right wing fundies.

  7. a moron how is he a moron hes on the nsa cousil for years ulike plain who mis spends Federal funds

  8. McSAME=BUSH-3 and Romney do not get along, it is a pretty well know fact. Unfortunately, the Republican's have done studies that  showed Romney's religion would have been a net over-all drag on the ticket. They would have had no chance of picking up any kind of right wing Christian vote, who would have been instructedy their leaders like the Rev. Dobson, to stay home on election day.  

  9. No, he picked her so he could get Hillary supporters to vote for him because he put a woman on the ticket even though her views are the total opposite of Hillary's.  

  10. No, John McCain didn't pick Romney, because he has a p***s.

    John McCain blatantly said he wouldn't choose his VP until Obama chose his.  Know why?  He wanted to wait and see if he chose Hillary.  If he had, he probably would have chosen Romney, or Lieberman, or one of a few other white males.  Clearly, McCain is attempting to pander to Clinton supporters by throwing a woman on the ticket.  And, the fact that she is adamantly pro-life, anti-s*x ed, pro-Creationism in schools is just an added bonus to attract the Evangelicals.

  11. Senator Mc Cain bypassed Romney in favor of Governer Palin, I feel that it will be the trick that will win him the presidancy.

    It was a ballsy move he made, And with Obama picking Joe Biden instead of Mrs. Clinton, I feel that he has thrown away millions of votes that will now go to Mc Cain and Palin.

    Smart move on Mc Cains part.

    Very dumb move on Obamas part in not selecting Hillary, Sir you have lost this race. But I do respect the statement he made on not wanting the familys to be used as cannon fodder in the press.

    for once this just might be a change whom ever is elected.

  12. McCain is at a phase of old age, called "Nasty Old Man".  Where he has a need to see younger nicely built women.  Palin was his choice from the beginning, a woman period..

  13. I would've picked Olympia Snowe, rather than Romney.

    Let's face it, LDS owns Utah, and that place is creepy. Do we really want the United States of Utah

  14. I think he did it because it would have been harder for two old white guys to win.

  15. I seriously doubt it. Romney could have gotten him Michigan and Massachusetts, plus he has the experience and innovation and vision. But, he needed to throw Obama a curve ball.

    No, I heard that Romney was scheduled to go to Dayton right up till the last minute.
