I assume my disapproval of McCain. You are not worried that his health/old age would bring in Palin to be President? That’s not even mentioning that Palin can’t figure out what the role of the VP is. She doesn’t run the Senate. 🙂

Picking Obama because you think McCain will die is stupid. Please show me evidence that he will not last the next 4 years. Because his doctors cant.

I didn’t say it’s my reason. 🙂

His age is a reason to me because the highest position in our country shouldn’t be an old man. Period.

But, his age is approaching the life expectancy of a White American male. Furthermore, he has had several emotional/physical injuries. But, the fact that he choose Palin was enough for me. She was choosen to help him not us.

To be fair, I am not thrilled with biden either.

Yeah we did the life expectancy thing. How accurate is that for the most important man in the world? A wealthy person? A guy who will be looked after by the best medical minds mankind has to offer? If his health was a serious concern (backed up by evidence), we’d know about it and he wouldnt be the R candidate.

Of course he didnt pick Palin for “us.” (HE didnt pick Palin anyway, no president picks the vp, the party picks the VP). Every VP in recent history has been an opposite of the president, not for their qualifications and how they can benefit Americans. The VP doesnt DO anything so the qualifications are low. They are picked to win an election and thats it.

No one can predict that. The facts are based on his age. Given what I said, it’s probably fair to say he is worse off than a 72 year old male that didn’t go through what he did.

His medical records are bigger than Wikipedia. :lol

He didn’t pick her? People within his party were blown away by the choice? The fact that people within the party indicate she is hurting his campaign is more the reason to be suspect of her.

I still don’t understand why Palin was picked… she’s a moron.

For how little the VP matters to a presidential regime, the emphasis on them during the election is absurd.

Party _members_ are blown away by the choice. The campaign and party advisors pick the VP to help win the campaign. Thats all I meant by “party.”

Because no one votes based on merit. Old conservative white men (the dominant voter group) will vote for McCain, feminist crazy women and liberals in general will vote for McCain because of Palin.

Black people will vote for Obama. Liberal whites will vote for Obama because of Biden.

All the VP does is gain you another chunk of the voting public. It’s just a numbers game.

Crazy old Bush 1 and really young Dan Quayle, etc

For the record, I dont think Palin was a good choice at all. Biden would make a better Dem candidate than Obama would.

All 4 of them still suck for choices.

I’m considering cutting out my fenders, buying low offset, very wide wheels for a vette or something, and running riveted over-fenders.

Rust prevention ftw.

Thoughts?
