Do you think it is a mistake to choose Palin as a running mate?

Question

I've heard most of the arguments from the past few days, but the one thing I don't think most people have considered is how Joe Biden will tear her up in the VP debate on Oct. 2nd.

What's your thought on this?

Answer 1

I'm worried.  Fortunately, there's only one vp debate (i think) and probably only political geeks watch it.

Answer 2

I'm a Democrat saying she got my vote atleast we wil have someone in the white house that is in touch with reality.

Answer 3

Yes, he could tear her up in the VP debate but he could also be perceived as picking on the little woman, gaining her sympathy. He's going to have to walk a thin line between being showing his vast knowledge and not appearing to making fun of her lack of knowledge of national and international problems in the world.

Answer 4

I think McCain had quite a senior moment on deciding Palin as his running mate. Romney would have been a much better match up for the articulate and experienced Joe Biden. It appears as if the Republicans are grasping at straws now. But if you ask Fox News, they'll tell you how she's had loads of foreign policy experience in Alaska, bordering RUSSIA. Go youtube that, right now. Be wary of your news - one source is not enough.

Answer 5

not at all Palin is an excellent choice

Mccain/Palin 2008

Answer 6

Biden is a *****! He wont do any damage at all to her, she is a stronger woman than biden is. LOL.

Answer 7

hmm...as a Dem voting for her, I can say if Biden dosen't watch himself closely, she'll do to him what she's done to some of the other 'old school' politicians in her state! Any woman who can hunt in Alaska for fun, shouldn't have any trouble with a old-f**t-liberal with bad knees!

Answer 8

I don't think Biden will do as well as you think he will.  This is a woman who stood up to some of the most powerful people within her own state party and won.  She challenged some very powerful politicians and I would have to think she is used to the pressure.  While I don't think she will eat Biden up, I think it will be a fairly even contest.

Personally, I think she is a good choice.  She makes up for McCain's weaknesses.

Answer 9

I would be willing to bet that she holds her own.  

Answer 10

Palin is a great and is not worried by "Plugs"
