They took Palin on a field trip today to meet nine heads of state plus Bono. When her field trip is over, she will be a bona fide expert on foreign policy. She will add this experience to the experience she gained by looking out of the window to one of the Russian islands. When all this is done, she will be equipped to lead the free world. Isn''''t that special?

You could say the exact same thing about the street activist.

This election isn''t about Sara Palin''s 17 year old daughter. This is about who we want to vote for President. We''ve all had some kind of problem to deal with in our lives similar to this. Why can''t we take the media away from her daughter? It isn''t any of our business... I wish her daughter the best of luck! And who cares if she marries the baby''s daddy? I''m sure she has plenty of support at home. Ands cutoes to her for having a child with special needs. I personally know how it is to raise a special child. It is tough, but you learn to be the best parent to every child with or without special needs.

I have long been a fan of Bill Clinton, but his effort to help this country out of our present dilemna is making me reevaluate my opinion of him. He, more than anyone, should be fighting to keep palin out of the white house. He knows the complexities of being president and he has seen along with the rest of the populace what can happen when someone who is ignorant, not dumb, but without knowledge, gets esconched there. palen may be likeable and just like "us", but most of us realize that taking on the challenge of the vice presidency or the presidency is more than just "not blinking". I am disappointed that he is not putting forth more effort for the country''s survival.

Bill can just disappear from the scene and it wouldn''t make a difference! He''s hoping that Obama loses so that he can recover and regain some semblance of respect for all the dumpster-diving that he did over the last year. Sure he knows all about Palin - she wears a skirt doesn''t she? He has lost the respect of almost all of us, and if he thinks he can hang on to Hillary "skirt-tails or pants-tail" in 2012, he might as well forget it NOW, for there is no way she will win the support of democrats again after what was done to fracture the party and the lukewarm token of support now. They are FINITO as far as we are concerned and the less said by him, the better the democratic party will be. You are what you "eat" Bill, and so just accept it instead of spewing more rubbish.

At least Clinton is aware of how to ''charm'' people.
Something the rest of the DNC lost a long time ago.
Former DNC''ers appreciate what you said Bill, even though we wouldn''t have voted for you again. Say hello to Hillary for us.
McCain/Palin08

Here is a great resource about Sarah Palin - the most comprehensive page of information on her record and policies available on the Internet ... including videos of her saying her proposed $30 billion pipeline is the %u201Cwill of God,%u201D her saying a month ago she doesn%u2019t know what the vice-president does, and her complaining four months ago that Hillary Clinton was whining about %u201Csexist%u201D media coverage -

http://dailysource.org/palin

It has in-depth research, audio clips, videos, and links to hundreds of articles, including many from newspapers and TV stations in Alaska. It has rare footage, including her telling the %u201808 convention of the Alaska Independence Party, whose aim is to give Alaska a vote on seceding from the U.S., to %u201Ckeep up the good work.%u201D

The level of research is tremendous. The site%u2019s editors and volunteers include an Emmy-award winning CNN reporter, the former operating editor of the Christian Science Monitor%u2019s web site, the former head of NPRs News Blog and the Executive Director of the Online News Association -

Please tell anyone about this who might want to know more.

One thing about the Clintons--it''s always about them. Just ask them.

Clinton is a despicable human being. He is so transparent. He cares about no one but himself. He doesn''t really care about Hillary. He was merely using her to regain the spotlight. He''s hoping that McCain wins, messes up and then Hillary can run in 2012. He doesn''t seem to realize that a lot can change in four years. Also, his over-the-top compliments about Palin are kind of creepy. It reminds you of what a jerk he really is.
