If Palin does not have experience to be VP, why is the left slinging mud at her?

Question

They must be scared of her.

Answer 1

bring it on!!!  republicans are going to loose this one so badly they'll want to hide under a rock.  we're slingin' mud because she's not qualified to be president!  lets face it, McCain is too old to understand what is going on in the world.  he's bad at economics, out of touch with the needs of a globalized society, and still brings religion into politics.  

  we're slingin' mud because McCain said Obama was too inexperienced and then he goes off and selects a VP candidate who was mayor of a town of 6500, governor for 20 months, for what reason? because she's a woman and he thinks it'll get him Hillary votes!  It's insulting, so we're going to insult you to show you we have balls!!!!

Answer 2

Well, according to the polls, the left has no reason to be scared of her.

Come on, her abstenance only policies got her daughter pregnent and is responsible for more abortions than any political policy by any other candidate in the race. She is already under investigation for using her elected position for personal gain. She claims to have cared so little for her unborn child that she gave a speach and then boarded a plane AFTER her water broke. She used public tax money to further McCain's campaign when she removed all of her pro-Obama and anti-McCain comments from the official state of Alaska web site.

I don't think that Americans are slinging mud at her. I think that most Americans are laughing at McCain.

Answer 3

Hypocrisy.  Narry a mention of John Edwards and his lack of use of birth control.  It's sad the family of a candidate is dragged through the mud.  It's an indication of the shallowness of the opposition whether Republicans or Democrats throw the mud.  Stick with the issues - that's how they get worked out.  Not calling names and casting dispersions.

Answer 4

You can smell their fear

Answer 5

Exactly.

Good observation.

Answer 6

I said the same thing pal

Answer 7

That's what we here in reality refer to as a 'false premise'.

The left hasn't had to sling any mud at her.

She's taking herself down, and McCain along with her.

Thanks for repeating the 'left must be scared of her' meme though.  It lets me know to avoid wasting my time reading your posts.

Answer 8

The DNC is scared, now all us "pant suit" women who are Democrats for McCain 2008 have a ticket  that represents women.  

Answer 9

No one is scared of Sarah Palin.  We are very thankful that John McCain picked an obviously unqualified VP candidate with so much personal baggage.   You are mistaking the celebration of the idiocy of the decision and the fun people are having making fun of the McCain campaign for fear.  The joke is apparent to most, but I guess you just don't get it.

Answer 10

Funny, I have not seen any "mud."

I have seen Palin's RECORD and HISTORY being discussed.

Why is the Right afraid of facts?

Answer 11

True. She is a normal middle class American. Who believes in God, country and family. That is why they despise her this much.

Answer 12

Because the don't want an honest politician holding office.

Lets hear little about B. Hussein Obama's Mama getting knocked up when she was just 17 and while we are at it, lets hear B. Hussein Obama's middle name once in a while.

Liberals are too stupid to even begin to contemplate how stupid they are. That is why Khrushchev said they would use them to take take over the USA without firing a shot.

Answer 13

She is a tinfoiler.  Has that Northern Idaho nutiness about her.  Closet militia boosters must be in heaven.

Answer 14

I don't have a problem with McCain picking her but I don't think they will get the majority of Hillary's vote as they think they will.  Karl Rove said the when Tim Kaine's name was on VP short list for Obama, he didn't think he had enough experience as governor & he was a mayor of a small town(Richmond, which happens to be a state capital) & I think more people heard of Richmond & whereever Palin is from.  I just want to what makes Rove think that Palin is qualified as VP but Kaine wasn't & they both were governors & mayors.

Answer 15

They are runnin sacred baby!

Answer 16

They should be scared of her.  She's a light weight right wing nut who should never have been selected by McCain.  And I was going to vote for him, too but not now.

Answer 17

because she is  more qualified than obama.

Answer 18

Because that's what politicians (and the media) do...regardless of whether they're on the left or right.  

Answer 19

I agree.  They are all for a woman's right to choose as long as she chooses they way they would.

I hope they aren't smart enough to realize how easy it can backfire on them.

Answer 20

Probably because it shows what a poor choice McCain made
