without making himself look like a sexist bully? What strategy do you think the DNC will use to take the light off of Palin and put it back on Obama?

  1. Easy Joe Biden should attack like he would anyone else. Are you suggesting that they should take it easy on her. Take it easy on a women who said Hillary Clinton was a whiner. Remember how Republicans refer to Clinton as a Whiner and *****, then there should be no double standard. Do you think the leaders of other countries are gonna take it easy on her?


  2. Obama was up 8 points and McCain did the only thing he could try to even it out... now things will almost be at a standstill until the dirty rumors come out.

    It's going to take a lot of genius for either side to come up with an effective argument against each other, without appearing superficial.

  3. I am really curious to see this.  But he will take the bait, he is a classless politician.  It will gain the sympathy vote for Palin.  I cannot wait.  Remember what he and his henchmen did to Hillary?

  4. I think McCain worked him self in to a corner here.

    Obama has 8 years experience in state government   she has 2.

    Obama has some experience in National politics she has none.

    She has a union huband.

    Here state is flush in Big OIL money.

    Are women supports of Hillary going to switch simply because she is a woman.  She is the polar opposite of Hillary.  

    Many of Hillary's  "Puma" members were g*y men.  I they really going to switch to Palin anti g*y stance?

    BTY your the only one to get my McCain shoe/ flip flop question!!!!     I might not agree with you on that, but you are the only one not to defend his choice in shoes!!!!

  5. Lets see..all kinds of issues., because palin does not have much experience like Obama does.

    One thing as a woman, i mean i am no longer able to have children, but Palin is totally against abortion, wants to make it illegal. Which i think is wrong. I believe in America a woman has the right to choose.

    If one of my children or grandchildren, were raped, or pregnant by incest, and wanted an abortion, i would back them.

    PALIN wants to take a way the right for a woman to choose.

    This is wrong.

    This is America. Whether abortion is right or wrong, that is not the issue, the issue is a woman should get to decide.

    Obama, just has to stand there, and be his wonderful self, and look at her, and that will be attacking her. he has that ability, he has the professionalism. She is trying to be a s*x symbol, and sadly being used by McCain to try and get votes, she is to arrogant to see that.

    OBAMA/BIDEN 08

  6. Obama knows he does not need to attack anyone.

    Vote for issues not attacks.

  7. He doesn't need to. Listen to his answer when he was asked about Palin. That's the right approach: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/08/30...

  8. Just face it:

    McCain/Palin for 2008-2016

  9. She was a mayor of a small town 22 months ago.

    She is under investigation for trying to get her ex-brother in law fired. She will be under investigation over the next three months.

    She is the least qualified vice-president ever according to arcticles I have read.

    CNN said she might get a few Reagan Democrats... but most women wanted Hillary to win for her qualifications... and her experience... and they are not likely to vote for the republican party.

    Her selection takes away one of the best Republican attacks on Obama. His experience. She (as I said above) has the least experience of any... even Quayle or Agnew....

    Obama has over ten years experience in public office. He went to Columbia university and went to Harvard Law school. He taught constitutional law at the Law School at Chicago University for 12 years. Hes worked as a community organizer before and after Harvard Law School.


  10. Obama supporters should tread lightly when attacking Palin, since they have already alienated women big time.

    But no, like bulls in a china shop, they bash and trash. Not thinking, are they?

  11. McCain and Palin will be a winning team. Obama's people are just showing in this Yahoo answers how they are trying to attack her but she is a great person and will get through it  all.  The big bad wolfe did huff and puff but he couldn't blow down the house of bricks and this is what the DNC will come against.

  12. Stick to the facts and feed the media.

    She's up for the #2 spot in the country, and everything is fair game now, just like it was for Hillary and Obama and McCain and Biden.

    You can rest assured that the RNC is suddenly going to pretend to be for the woman's movement, and say EVERY attack on Palins (highly questionable) resume is a sexist affront to all woman.    That's politics.


  13. Try to rattle her in with caribou horns, but she is to smart for him for that to work, so he would have to learn how to poach like his african ancestors, dont tell him not to use a spear, i would like to see his expression when she shot his @ss.

  14. He doesn't have to, the debates will reveal that she is completely unqualified for this office.

    Half of my Republcan friends are so disgusted that they may not vote at all. They energized their religious crazy base but the financial conservatives are disgusted with this choice. After all the hoopla about her being a woman and all the lies come out (and they are!! McCain never even vetted Palin, what a idiot) the bloom will come off that rose really quick.

    Hey Sarah! Welcome to the big leagues! You're toast.

  15. Don't think he needs to.  Palin was handed to him on a plate by the dumbest people ever to work for the Republican party.  He couldn't have dreamt her up if he tried.

  16. He doesn't have to attack her. At least not at the moment.

    He will attack McCain if he has to and leave her for Biden and Hillary to deal with.

    Those two might enjoy the fresh meat if there is any left when the Republicans get through with her.

    At the moment the republicans are tearing her down just fine.

  17. From what i've heard, Obama has been more than kind to Mccain's VP pick, calling to congragulate her. It doesn't matter anymore, Obama's won now....Mccain made a HUGE mistake. He only picked Palin because she's a woman..period. I think Obama is thrilled to see America progress, I mean, now a woman as a VP pick. He said so...I am so glad to see a woman have this chance, but, it was for the wrong reasons...and women everywhere should be offended. I think the Reps. saw the awesome show that the Dems put on with their convention....and made a stupid rash choice...I bet Obama and Biden had a good laugh after this one, then went out and had a drink.....Obama 08'

  18. Biden is the attack dog for Obama, and if he does attack her, you will see a revolt by women voters who may have been leaning towards Obama.

    There a lots of women still upset about how Obama treated Hillary.

  19. Treat her like any other person and if people criticize him he should say

    "Would you expect me to treat her any less than I would a man"

    "Why would I treat her any differnt than I treated Hillary?"

    "Are you telling me she's not ready?"

    and I'm not even voting for BAA  RACK (Bill Clinton's pronounciation"


  20. He needs to hammer on McCain and try to draw down moderate support.

    The entire right-wing is now in McCain's camp and lot of Hillary voters are leaning that way.  He is going to need a charm offensive to keep them from rallying around Palin.

  21. How can McCain attack Obama? He chose a woman that has less experience than even Dan Quayle did.

  22. He won't wimps don't attack they have their idiots do it for them, like the slur on Palins daughter.

  23. Just a tidbit.....before becoming mayor, Pallin was UNEMPLOYED FOR 3 YEARS. But I'm sure she was reading books on how to be vice president one day.....oh yeah, she said a few months ago "I'm not even sure what the vice president does".....well that's cool--wait--now you're running to be the vice president....hmmmm.

    Vote Independent philosophy not phraseology--McCain ain't a maverick, Obama ain't change. There are more than 2 parties you know.....

  24. She'll be up against Joe Biden.

    The Republicans feel that Joe is a loose canon and they will feel Palin with low blow shots, from her AK 47's.

    But Joe is being prepared while we speak. He expects her to shoot at him. And play the little woman standing by her man and the mother of 5 kids.

    He'll say "if you enter into a shark tank, expect to swim with the sharks"

  25. he can't really or he will lose the vote of the women that hillary has. his goal should be to attack McCain.  

  26. He can't. And he is showing his sexism extends well beyond simply not selecting Hillary as a running mate. He's an Oreo cookie and an elitist. I'm amazed he has garnered as much support as he has.

  27. Hire Mariska Hargitay (Law&Order SVU) to do Obama ads, to confuse the TV electorate.

  28. obama won't have to--the american voter will pass judgment on sarah. And as soon as one tiny negative appears about palin, the right will go ape and scream the attacks on her are unfair. With palin and cindy, i think mcbush's stock in viagra will be going up.

  29. Paint her as an ultra right wing evangelical nut case who doesn't believe in science.  Her own words will back it up.

    Although the evangelicals like to make a lot of noise, statistics show that the majority of Americans aren't evangelicals. in fact upwards of 20% don't identify as Christian.

    Add to this that the majority of Americans are pro-choice and that is a pretty strong bloc of people who will oppose her.


  30. Experience.Period.

    Actually, he doesnt have to do anything... The media and hypocritism by the republicans will do all the work..

  31. Stick to the issues, and expose her contradictions which are numerous.
