Comments on: Asked For Policy Specifics, Palin Offers Generalities

[mrtutto]

Watching some of the town hall meeting with John McCain and Sarah Palin was like sitting through a really bad Las Vegas lounge act.

[rfborjal]

So, anything that has "foreign" in it qualifies Palin to deal with foreign policy? If she uses fuel from "foreign oil", or nuys a TV set from a "foreign country", she becomes an expoert on foreign affairs. Ridiculous!

[demsdebreaks]

Mr. Conroy, did you not think it relevant to mention that this "town-hall" meeting was an invitation only affair ticketed to 3,500 of the Republican faithful? This is another Bush / Rove tactic, to seed the audience so the only questions will along the lines of "Oh, how did you get to be so gosh *** wonderful?" And yet it''s billed and marketed throughout the media as a town-hall meeting under the implied premise that anyone in town can attend.

NOT SO.

This was basically an RNC mini meeting. Of course she would take the microphone when she could be certain what the questions would be. This was a skit worthy of Saturday Night Live.

As a women this is how I feel about the women who are voting for Sarah Palin because she is a women that''s trying to take the place of Hillary Clinton. She is no comparison to Hillary!!! It is embarrassing to think anyone would consider her in comparison with Hillary. They do not share any of the same values. And she can not touch Hillary when it comes to experience. You are comparing Hillary a women that could run the country to a women that can not even run her household. If she gets elected than that will kill the chance of Hillary making history of being the first women president. Hillary worked very hard to pave that pathway. We can not let this clueless Alaskan female come out of no where and take what only Hillary deserves in 2012!!! Hillary Clinton broke the glass ceiling NOT Sarah can''t be trusted Palin!!! Who is she anyway????????? Women we are to smart to fall for that gender scam that Mccain is trying to pull.

[dccfaith]

No one in the right mind could be considering voting for Bush/MCcain/Palin!! Sad but true Mccain age has caught up with him. Mccain can not remember what he says from one sentence to the next. He doesn''t even remember what party he is in. He thinks he is a Democratic for change, what happen to experience. Oh, I know what happened Sarah Palin appeared on the ticket. This is pathetic that Mccain is so desperate that he chose Sarah because she is a female. When he chose Sarah Palin this is a confirmation that he does not care about this country. Now we have two clueless candidates on the ticket. Everyone needs to take this election as serious as a heart attack. This is a life or death situation. Please vote on the issues only! Disregard race and gender.

What a freaking joke this woman is! I guess McCain and Palindrome are counting on a lot of stupid American voters to buy into this ***. Guess what? We voters are a lot smarter this election and this *** don''t fly.

How could anyone attack Obama after these answers? She has NOTHING to offer. She said she has the "readiness" and will be ready by the time they are sworn in but didn''''t have her passport till last year...only flew to Kuwait (didn''''t go into Iraq), landed in Ireland only for jet refueling, knows nothing about Russia and world affairs and yet she would be a heartbeat away from the most powerful position on earth. C''''mon. I am a Republican and the only real issue here is that Sarah Palin is so terribly unqualified as to be a farce and a danger to this country. Even the spin that the ticket tries to put on this...that she has some oil experience and that related to defense and foreign policy?! It is a joke. We need a real set of Republicans who favor smaller government, less spending, conservative values. Not some self-proclaimed mavericks who really are nothing of the sort. Neither answered the question about her inexperience and the frosting needs to come off the cake.

I think the entire country is starting to see what you are seeing and thinking about the implications. What makes this worse is that McCains advisers are Max Boot and Robert Kagan. When McCain dies in office, these two neocon nuts will have Sarah''s ear.

[elz523]

and they can kind of beat the candidate here who chose me as his partner to kinda tear down the ticket,%u201D Palin said.

"Yeah, umm Vladimir, couldya kinda stop tearin down those European countries over there?"

Shame on you John McCain for choosing to try and win an election over protecting the American people!

[elz523]

Earlier at the town hall meeting, a woman rose to speak and said was a Democrat who previously supported Hillary Clinton but now backed the Republican ticket.

%u201CGive us some details and examples of your strategies and plan for economic empowerment for women,%u201D she said.

McCain signaled for Palin to answer the question.


Palin''s answer "Yup, equality for women" we''re gonna do that.

Geez willackers Sarah, can ya give us some details?

While you are at it, keep talking, I know it puts the fear of God in our enemies.

[adabfree]

she''s a joke!
