Why are republicans followers and not leaders?

Question

Mccain wants to follow Bush and his policies, instead of doing his own thing. He pick his VP to be Sarah Palin and everyone thinks shes a great pic comparing her to Hillary? Even though her background is not squeaky clean and lack some experience. although the criticize Obama for his lack of experience. anyway He might as well march Paris Hilton up their and announce her VP. REPUBLICANS DO YOUR OWN THING AND USE SOME COMMON SENSE

I want a president that is the head and not the tail

OBAMA '08

Answer 1

We are using common sense, Chuck, that's why we're not voting for Obama. Neither Hillary nor Obama are "squeaky clean" and Palin is cleaner than both of them. Obama's "own thing" is doing everything the way the failure Jimmy Carter did it. Great idea! She IS the best choice and you people are terrified about it or you wouldn't be dwelling on it.

Answer 2

followers follow the polls.  leaders don't

hmm..  can you think of anyone recently who did not follow the polls.  that's right,  GW Bush.

Answer 3

It's "people" who are followers and not leaders.  

Answer 4

Spoken like a true male chauvinist.  You Dems are the ones following the Pied Piper.

Answer 5

Is this a question or a senseless (albeit typical) liberal rant?

Answer 6

McCain has had to put up with some hairy stuff from his own political party in order to even be considered Republican; Bush tried to annihilate him and he had to bow.  Whoever wins, may America be blessed with a better future!

Answer 7

doesn't paris hilton have some executive experience in governing hollywood...and isn't that more impressive than governing alaska?

Answer 8

MCCAIN ONLY FOLLOWS CAUSE ALL REPUBLICANS HAVE TO SOUND LIKE THEIR TALKIN OUT THEIR ***. HE CHOOSES TO STICK LIKE BUSH.

OBAMA '08

Answer 9

Republicans ARE LEADERS!  

Democrats are dummies!

Stop your ranting...!

McCAIN

2008

Answer 10

The dems are the ones who consistently compare Palin to Clinton.  And if you have followed McCain's career for more than a year, you know that he is anything but another Bush.  I've been supporting him for more than a decade.

Answer 11

Name ONE new thing Obama said in his Thursday night speech.

I win.

McCain / Palin 2008  

Answer 12

WOW!

Things written like this show the highly obvious reasons that democrats should not be in any office. The great leaders of this country have been both Democrat and Republican. It just happens to be that Democrats have changed over the years. Instead if having backbones, they now are all jellyfish. Pc this and pc that, talk about not being leaders. The Democratic party is just a bunch of quivering little cowards who want to bow down to everyone throughout the world and say "We give!"..... Just remember, democrat supporter, the Government works for the people, not the people work for the Government!

By the way....please learn grammar and spelling before posting another question....you're making your party look bad.

Answer 13

Obama is a jackass. I'm voting for substance and action, I'm voting McCain in '08. A leader is McCain a former Naval Captain. He knows how to lead troops, unlike the coward radical Obama.

Answer 14

Sitting on your *** and waiting for the government to feed and house you is leading how?

You say we should do our own thing. I say dems should do SOMETHING.

Answer 15

They seem to be the most uncreative people, rigid and set in their ways

Answer 16

does mccain think that dem women are stupid? Hillary supporters voted for her because of her policies not because shes a women... Nice try grandpa McCain... Just get some viagra and leave with Pauline!

Answer 17

Did you SEE the DNC? John McCain is now and has always been his own man. Sarah Palin has more major accomplishments than Barrack Obama. She rooted out corruption within her own party, managed to get a $40,000,000,000.00 natural Gas Pipleline to bring clean, abundant energy to the lower 48, actually has run something (a city and a state). Barrack has run a failed organization, the Woods Foundation. He's missed votes or voted "Present" and hangs with an admitted terrorist, William Ayers. You speak of common sense, but it's like everything else in the Democratic Party these days, all talk, little action. Dems have control of both houses of Congress. What have they accomplished so far. Nada, thank God!

Answer 18

Hmm....Democrat run congress with the lowest approval rating in history..yeah..those are real leaders!

Answer 19

Obama will tax your buster browns off, but you think it will not happen to you. Lol

Answer 20

Republicans are NOT followers !!

Junior U.S. Senator Obama Supporters are sheople !!!

Alaska Govermor Sarah Palin has MORE TOTAL political experience than the Socialist / Communist / Liberal / Marxist / ANTI-American Democratic Presidential Nominee !!

.

I have NO problem voting for an African American or a woman or any other minorty as long as they are the BEST PERSON for the position !!!

JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama is NOT the BEST person to be OUR President of THE United States of America !!

.

To me, Junior U.S. Senator Obama just came out of nowhere !!

The more that I heard, the more that I knew that he would NOT be the BEST person to be THE President of THE United States of America !!

America SHOULD feel unsafe about the possibility of JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama in the White House !!

IF .. JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama can get his Global Poverty Act (SB S.2433) passed ... HE WILL be giving up America's sovereignty to the United Nations !! ... And .. in doing so ... THEY will be trying to re-write our 2nd Amendment !!

.

MOST ... JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama Supporters do NOT care about his ideals and policies ... they JUST WANT AN AFRICAN AMERICAN as President !!!

.

JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama is ANTI-American.

JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama wants to END WORLD POVERTY on ... OUR NICKEL AND SURRENDER THE United States ... to THE United Nations.

.

Please, search the ...

Global Poverty Act (S.2433), ... and it is being sponsored by none other than JUNIOR U. S. Senator Barack Obama.

.

JUNIOR U. S. Senator Obama did NOT complete his FIRST term in office !!

... with just 143 days of ACTUAL experience

... HE decided

... that he DESERVED to be THE President of THE United States of America !!!

.

JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama, the Unions, and the Democrats are sending messages to big business to downsize in America and send more jobs to foreign countries.

Brilliant ideas from JUNIOR U.S. Senator Obama, the Democrats and the Unions (SARCASM) !!!!

.

Answer 21

oh charles, you sell republicans so short! I mean, take (R) Idaho senator larry craig--now there's a leader. If you doubt me, ask him to lead and he'll head straight to any airport bathroom. Or how about (R) Louisiana senator david vittner--he can lead you to some really high priced hookers, or heck, even VP d**k cheney--he will lead you straight to some clipped winged quail--- (but you could get shot) or lets see...(R) alaska senator ted stevens will be happy to lead you to the "bridge to nowhere"and i'm sure mark foley (florida) will lead you to some hidden nook in the House--but only if you are a young page. I say the republicans have a bunch of leaders--it's "hard" to miss them.

Answer 22

Why do democrats, after the total s***w up things elect an totally unqualified candidate with no real experience to clean things up.

No not Obama, I'm referring to Arnold and Reagan being elected to teh world 8th largest economies.

Answer 23

They want to lead us to four more years of the Bush!

Answer 24

Good question...they like to chase their tails don't they?  And they like to chase Palin's tail by the looks of it too.

Frankly if they could LEAD...they wouldn't have had to pull in a woman for the job.

Answer 25

McCain does not follow Bush, and your "question" makes no sense. Replace Republicans with Democrats in your first sentence, and that would be far more reasonable.

Answer 26

John McCain is more qualified by experience and accomplishment to be President of the United States than Barack Obama, Joe Biden, or Sarah Palin.  

Joe Biden is more qualified to be president than Barack Obama or Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin is more qualified to be president -- that's right, president -- than Barack Obama.
