What do you think about both Obama's and McCain's running mates?

Question

Do you think they were good choices?

Answer 1

Do the math

McCain is 72

Life expectancy is 75 for a white male. .

You really want a beauty pageant contestant with Bachelors degree in Journalism to be leader of the free world? She's only been governor for 20 months and before that she was mayor of nowheresville.

Not me. I actually care about this country.

McCain has shown just how reckless and irresponsible he is with this insane VP choice. How many Hillary supporters does he think are out there who wont vote for Obama?

Obama on the other hand chose Biden, who is actually great Presidential material.

Answer 2

Can we switch running mates?  McCain/Bidden would be an acceptable ticket.

Answer 3

I was a Hilary supporter. I would have loved to have sen here in office. Nonetheless Biden was a wise choice. Palin represents another shot from the hip of Mccain. a bad one at that.  

Answer 4

I honestly don't care, Because I don't like any of them :)

Answer 5

This is gonna be one hilarious debate.

Answer 6

Lame.

Answer 7

Obama made the best choice. He knows if something, God forbid, where to happen to him this country would go berserk, there would have to be someone already in place who would have the know-how and yes, the experience to hold it all together and react in a thoughtful and knowledgeable manner. Biden can do that. He also knows that Biden fills the holes in his resume. He made an intelligent choice

As for McCain, well he can always blame dementia.

Answer 8

obvious choices.  I did not expect more from Obama, and I did not expect as much from Mccain

Answer 9

I honestly like them both separately.  Biden is a leader in the Senate, and anyone who's listened to Sarah Palin will know that she is one competent leader.  As a VP pick, however, I would say Palin is much better.  Eventually, people will realize that she IS experienced enough.  Though I don't personally agree, most people believe Biden isn't exactly "change".

Answer 10

I think the running mates are more qualified to run the country than the forerunners, but I still pick McCain.

Answer 11

I think both were good choices.

The big talk is experience.  I don't think you can have experience at being the president, unless you have been the president before.  I think it would be unlike any job.  So none of them "technically" have any experience.  Whoever gets elected will surround themselves with advisors & cabinet members that will fill in the gaps of where they are lacking.  I don't think any president makes all decisions based solely on their own understanding and experience.

Answer 12

Biden - More of the same.  Talk, talk, talk

Sarah - Finally common sense and action, action, action

Answer 13

obama is a forsure win

and..

i got this tight shirt with obama on it and he looks hella sickk!!

Answer 14

Not much. No.

Answer 15

Both good choices. Obama's the only one I don't like

Answer 16

I think they were both reasonable choices.  Both moved their parties to the middle.  Neither is a particular standout.

Answer 17

I liked Biden when he was running for president and thought he was a good choice for VP.  I'm still trying to figure out McCain's thinking for picking Palin.  I don't see how she is a good choice.  It has nothing to do with her gender.  I just think that someone like Rell of Connecticut would make more sense and, frankly, be more worrisome for the Dem's.
