More examples of intelligence:
She has 2 years of experience. How can republicans rap on Obama for this? Obama has about 7 years total political experience.
This is an insult to Hillary Clinton and women, the only reason Sarah was picked was because she is very attractive, so she's just eye candy to replace McCain who is like a zombie.
It also doesn't help Sarah wants creationism to be taught in school.
She isn't a reformer, she's a FAR right conservative, who should be at home taking care of her down syndrome child.

The real emancipation will be when newspapers can report about a politician without mentioning what is between their legs.

This decision places the judgment of the two candidates in stark
contrast. Obama chose someone with substantial foreign policy experience and credibility who brings much to the table. McCain, on the other hand, opted to pander to former Clinton supporters by choosing a woman, with zero experience. Unfortunately, McCain did not realize that Ms. Palin was the antithesis of Clinton, in being pro-life and pro-gun. Which person had the best interest of the country in mind? Obama wins hands down.

America, the world is relying on you to not only consider the issues and vote for a suitable candidate as per any other general election, but also:
* not act on repressed racism in the voting booth.
* not act on passion for irrelevant factors (like the gender or race of the people on the ticket).
* not base your views on the opinion-pieces and talking-points of certain "News" outlets. Read the Guardian. Read the BBC. Read a lot of whatever you like.
America is going to have me and the rest of the world holding our breaths in November. I want to believe in you
