McCain Introduces Sarah Palin as Vice President part 1

[ButchCassidy101]

She seemed so perfect back then until the media butchered her.

[RuntOfTheBatch]

Honestly thought that when Palins intro came, that they started playing the Imperial March xD

[DynamicRebel]

McCain is senile and Palin is just completely stupid

[suhu8]

'Mr Free Trade' McCain, Oct 18, 2001: "Looks like the anthrax was from Iraq"

[007ObiWan]

Hitler, Lenin, and Castro were community organizers. Jesus was not -- he rejected the pleas of the zealots to help organize a rebellion against Rome.

Say no to Obama Bin Biden.

[NoMagoo08]

The difference only between Sarah Palin and George Bush? Lipstick!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08!

[JennaLoca07]

McCain wont even last that long alive he looks hella Hella OLD

[alanshanelewis]

hahahah

[Swayingpines]

Comedian Al Franken wins the democratic nomination in Minnesota's Senate race!

[NoMagoo08]

In 1985, Barack Obama was a community organizer helping white, black and Latino blue-collar neighborhoods reeling from steel-mill closings. For the next three years, he organized more than twenty congregations to change their neighborhoods, assisting people in defining their mutual interests and working together to improve their lives.

In 1988, Sarah Palin was a broadcaster at KTUU, rattling off sports scores reporting the latest from the Iditarod to the Dillingham Beaver Roundup.

[AmericasWomen]

In 2008 the slums of South-side Chicago are still there.

Obama spent $100,000 and got 38 million viewers Sarah Palin didn't spend a dime and she got 38 million viewers...

Obama wish is to only change this country into a socialist country.

[koijaicat]

Sarah Palin is a leader, a maverick, a women with values. She had former Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan fired for not participating in her vendetta against her former brother-in-law; threatened librarian Mary Ellen Emmons with unemployment for not cooperating with her on the banning of books; had an affair with her husband's former business partner, Brad Hanson; deposited the deaths of thousands of innocent people on God. Sarah Palin's values at work.

[essayant2]

what exactly is remarkable about her?

The lies that she will help families with special needs kids well she cut Alaska's special education budget by 62%?

How about the insults to 'community organizers' like social workers or volunteers? That attitude made me feel real good.

Remarkable.

[WJTORCAN]

Well, even as a supporter of Barack Obama, I admit that I respect what Senator John McCain has done. But Candidate John McCain deserves no respect whatsoever. He is betraying his own conscience on issues like immigration and tax cuts.

[widgetbrain]

WJTORCAN: saying (and doing) anything to get elected. He wanted Lieberman and fought for it right up until the last minute, when it was explained that pro-choice Joe wasnt acceptable to the radical religious right. So John put the election first and picked Sarah "falwell in a skirt" Palin.

Kissing the ring McCain, some maverick... it is to laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh

[JeffLeeMac37]

lol you guys are idiots...read what your talking about...its over; obama is done

[reubixcube]

Body Language Experts Anybody????? Does it appear as though McCain keeps glancing down at Sarah Palin's backside? Why is Sarah Palin not wearing her WEDDING RING? Why does it appear as though McCain keeps playing with his ring finger? Is he subconsciously slipping his WEDDING RING on and off?

[todmarbri]

Wow you morons stop at NOTHING.

[DANIBROWN32]

Wow, I wonder what type of working relationship they would have. McCain doesn't seem to enthusiastic about her being there. Did he tell her family to get off the stage??LOL... At least Senators Obama and Biden look like they are glad to be in eachother's company.

[todmarbri]

Another MORON!

[lesteroff]

Really, really, really, really scary!

[ClassicLiberal]

for Osama Bin Bidin

[MClown69]

you republicans will make a excuse for anything bad that happens on your side and bash anything bad on obamas. god forbid his daughter was prego you would never hear the end of how a bad father he was and crap. what will be your excuses be when you lose in november? palin is mccain biggest mistake. republicans are even talking on the rnc floor about this. cmon. she is against birth control in schools and this shows! seems she might even be covering for daughters 1st son trig. what scandals next?

[todmarbri]

An even bigger MORON!

[ubernoobert]

quoted from sarah Palin what is it exactly that a vp does every day do you really want that for our country I sure as hell dont

[todmarbri]

I love how the left wing maniacs like MClown69 can actually find this woman to be unfit. She is the icon of a true American regardless of her political affiliation. Jesus even my democrat friends are enamored with her. The far lefties are really really shitting their pants because they know that this means the end of the Obamanation.

[ubernoobert]

wrong sarah palins nomination was an act of desperation and Sarah palin is not qualified if mccain dies in office we will have some alaskan bitch that does not know what the fuck she is doing and the states will be doomed and we will be speaking chineese in less than 5 year

[Velayasha]

todmarb "The far lefties are really really shitting their pants because they know that this means the end of the Obamanation." I don't think so. Democrats aren't stupid. McCain chose a woman he had only met one time before. Who does that? Anyways, it was a strategic pick to get disaffected Hillary voters. But Palin is no Hillary. In fact, she is the opposite. Hillary voters will see that and not be fooled.

[todmarbri]

Why don't you do some reading on Palin, other that what's posted on the Daily Kos. She is an absolutely remarkable woman who has significant accomplishment under her belt. Even more in fact than Barack Obama. She is bolstering the support of independants and the far right. McCain and Palin will win in November by a significant margin. Just wait and see...

[Velayasha]

todmarb I have done some reading on Palin. Although I feel she's a decent person, I'm not impressed with her ability to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency. There is no doubt that some independants will go for her. But if McCain wanted the Hillary vote, I think he'll be disappointed. U said: "McCain and Palin will win in November by a significant margin. Just wait and see... " Yes. We shall see. The race is tight.

[todmarbri]

Indeed it is a tight race. I have no confidence in Barack Obama whatsoever. His political and personal track record is certainly questionable. He is a well polished politician who treats every speech like a sermon. Using jokes and rhetoric to make a point rather than fact. His speeches are in fact "just words." Words without any appreciable historic action.

I do like chatting with you on the subject though. Anyone who has an intelligent response or thought is welcomed.

[Chelsea8983]

I agree very much. He also doesn't give straight forward answers he always dances around questions, as if not wanting to answer them, or not knowing what to say. Uh...uh,uh. :) McCAIN all the way!!!

[MClown69]

with her "so called" own 5 month mentally handicapped child and a 17 year old prego daughter I think sarah Palin's plates a little full to be a vp nominee. what a mistake johnny boy made on this one!!!

now i see why her daughter had a blanket covering her stomach when palin made the speech and introduced her family to the world. it wasn't cause she was holding lil trig. it was to hide the baby bump!!! also heard trig could be palins daughters also!

[todmarbri]

That message was so stupid that we are all dumber for having read it.

[MClown69]

I am white..... dumbass. haha.

[MClown69]

haha Palins 17 year old daughter is prego! palin is even accused of covering the daughters 1st child. trig. look it up. wow this gets better by the minute! now the shit hits the fan for mccain. thats what ya get when you meet someone 1 time and pick them for vp.

[keegannnnnn]

you're a stupid nigger, shut the fuck up

[todmarbri]

You are such a stupid left wing fuck. Obama will lose in November.  I can't wait!

[chef094]

why do you all have libril veiews rush and shan and the republicans are better your views!

[jazzyunderpants]

OMG! Caribou Barbie for VP!

[Dbardrules]

I love how he has to read her name off the paper before him...see a close up and you'll know what I'm talking about....

[colbyVas]

excuse me,do you know where the shitter is?

[peter1114222]

Sarah palin govornor of a state with hardly any people, no budget worries, zero foreigne relations experience and she only did that for less than two years and is under investigation for corruption. Mccain must be out of his mind, maybe that skin cancer is eating his brain.

[moddfemm]

Wow, so they are dropping from the RNC like flies. Good, maybe it will pare down to a 4min segment instead of a whinning four days. Maybe this time Bush has a reason to help those in LA. Those of us too far to volunteer are all watching you and your sad little party. Don't screw it up like you did three yrs ago...it wouldn't really help your see-saw candidate now would it? We know your Rep party is scared %^&)less by the results of abandoning a US state in a time of crisis, again.

[JockamoGoon]

crystal pepsi?

[a77mercury]

among the critical undecideds, the Palin pick made only 6 percent more likely to vote for McCain; and it made 31 percent less likely to vote for him. 49 percent said it would have no impact, and 15 percent remained unsure. More to the point: among undecideds, 59 percent said Palin was unready to be president. Only 6 percent said she was. If the first criterion for any job is whether you're ready for it, this is a pretty major indictment of the first act of McCain's presidential leadership.

[boogadeyboo]

she has leadership exp. duh she is the gov of alaska. she has been a exec of several seccessful business. And Osama? NADA he has no leadership exp. none!!!!! and tht who you want in control??? NOOOO

[moddfemm]

You're right Boo...didn't you read my other post. I got my camping and ping pong badges from my girl scout leader Palin. She's got mad leadership skills!

[Dbardrules]

Please, compare his time in the Illinois senate and in the US ... that's over 8 years AND he has a degree in Law from Harvard?

Plus he is intelligent and can not only lead us while he is President but also guide us into the future for an American for all its citizens...

[OSAMABINBIDEN]

Lead us into socialism which has always evolved into fascism...

[Studio2LH]

lol i thought of the same thing you did when you made your user name!

[falconlem]

McCain-Palin '08 Its time for Women to STAND UP!! WOMEN FOR LIFE!! An articulate and successful Governor from a small state that is an on fire conservative is exactly what all Republicans wanted. McCain has totally thrown the Obamacans into a spiral. Awesome choice!

Its nice to see Obama and Biden SCARED!!!

[SatNamTree]

I really don't see the "spiral" you mention. Seems McCain's pick for VP hasn't exactly excited too many people, for the obvious reasons. She's simply a political pick who wouldn't have been on McCains radar until Hillary was off the Dem ticket, really. The argument that McCain has demonstrated he;s for "vhange" is hollow also, since he only intriduce this "change" 2 months before the polls. Entirely contrived act on the GOP's part.

[Velayasha]

falconhelm

"Its nice to see Obama and Biden SCARED!!!" Yeah...I'm sure Obama and Biden are shaking in their boots. I'm sure they're considering dropping out of the race now that the former beauty queen is on McCain's ticket.

[moddfemm]

Last ditch attempt to save the Rep party and drill in Alaska with open arms. Lol!

[IronJustice08]

Vice President? Try President of the Unites States should McCain get elected and croak 1 year in office which is where the smart money is. Obama wont last much longer in office after some nutt job assassinates him 1 year into office. We have 2 candidates who probably wont finish their terms, so I hope everyone is comfortable with their pick for VP-cause thats who will be leading us.

[fourcollege]

Sarah Palin stands by her convictions and does not back down. She is awesome! Can't wait for her to debate Biden.

[vidno1vidno1]

If running the country was the same as reading speeches from teleprompters then we ought to elect messiahbama, but sorry, it involves much more than reading speeches.

[dnycpro]

Who cares about reading speeches. It's the content they're trying to convey. One's fighting for war while the other is trying to end it. Compare the policies my friend.

[vidno1vidno1]

It has nothing to do with black or white.

McCain clinched the win yesterday because the Dems have no depth, only hot air. The hot air doubled when messiahbama picked Biden. Both McCain & Palin speak with authority and substance,(not fake, self- indulgent authority like messiahbama & Biden). And Palin (VP candidate) has executive experience while messiahbama (Pres candidate) has only campaign experience. (That's why he's so good at reading speeches from tele-prompters.)

[moddfemm]

McCain made a pack with the devil. You seem to forget just a few yrs ago he was ready to run with Kerry as VP.(something McRich never denied) Palin is nothing but a cute girlscout leader. But I give her credit for running.I also give McRich credit for his choice as he is desperately going after Hillary voters.

[Velayasha]

moddfemm You're right. The choice of Palin was definitely opportunism on McCain's part. In fact, I think McCain's handlers dug her up from Alaska and said ,"Hey! Here's some Hillary voter bait!" Normally I would believe McCain chose a VP that he believed in, but I think this was just a chess move. I mean..he only met her one time before he picked her. It's not as if they're close friends. The Right has their own "messiah" now. They act like she's the Virgin Mary.

[SatNamTree]

Exactly. Hillary-Dems are likely to become more convinced than ever to vote Obama, after witnessing McCain's desperate includion of Palin as a Hillary-surrogate.

[unc1e5am]

LOL. McSame picked a female version of George W. Bush to be his running mate!

[cleftronix]

Seriously Liberals, do you think the whites will pull the lever for the liberal black Obama? SERIOUSLY? When this terrific looking lady is on the GOP TICKET?

OBAMA IS FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[moddfemm]

Huh? Lol, I'm not the only one who thinks Palin is the most inexperienced person on a major party ticket in modern history. Just ask presidential historian Matthew Dalleck and scholar of the vice presidency Joel Goldstein...their all scratching their heads like the rest of the country.

[cleftronix]

I find it amusing that liberals have NO IDEA how to counter this incredible lady VP! So far they have been attacking her on the experience issue, which Obama suffers from. However, attacking her at all is only upsetting the women who voted for Hillary even more! The liberals are trapped!

Keep it up liberals! Keep talking down to Sarah Palin, and you get your asses handed to you in November! McCain just won the election with this pick!!!!!!!

[vidno1vidno1]

Amen to that!! Dems are running in circles, don't know what to do or say!!

Their immediate response (knee jerk reaction) was to put down Palin. Then, someone within the messiahbama campaign realized that was a mistake, so they did a 180 degr turn and praised her. The Dems don't know whether they're coming or going. Ha.

[Velayasha]

vidno1 Your messiah [Palin] will not save McCain.

The only thing she did was make the conservative base happy. You guys weren't voting for Obama anyways. The rest of America won't be fooled by McCain's obvious attempt to make Hillary supporters ignore their issues and just vote "woman".

[dachrisman2004]

And America won't be fooled by Obama's attempts to seem patriotic. They will look at all of the openly-violent terrorists and communists that have made Barack Hussein Obama's inner circle throughout his adult (and young) life.

[Velayasha]

dach You forget that many in America think Rush and Hannity are full of crap. They are the ones who led the "Obama is anti-american!" charge. I believe he loves this country. So, he has a few unsavory friends. Big deal. So do I.

[dnycpro]

Dach, your candidate has health issues. God forbid he croaks, he'll be leaving the country in the hands of a milf hockey mom...ehh yeah..

[Studio2LH]

vote mccain you'll have an inexperienced person in a few years (maybe). vote obama, and get and inexperienced person NAO!

[vidno1vidno1]

Velayasha

You are partially right in saying that, "The only thing she did was make the conservative base happy. You guys weren't voting for Obama anyways."

You are thinking wrong if you think that she (Palin) won't make a difference in voter turnout. True, "You guys weren't voting for Obama anyways". But, many, many more Republican voters will turn out since McCain picked a confident(have you listened to her speak?) pro-life, Christian woman as his running mate. Dems are upset!!

[Velayasha]

vidno! "Dems are upset!!" Nah. Not really. Most Hillary voters will see thru McCain's ploy. They wanted their Hillary. Not a Republican version. And the Democrat voter turn out will be high as well. The one thing we can probably agree on is, this will be a tight race.

[moddfemm]

This is a Hillary voter speaking and you couldn't be more wrong! McRich's choice only shows the desperation on the Republican side.They know another white, middle aged male (Cheney lookalike) will just make voters RUN to the other side.

[WJTORCAN]

Wow, John McCain is really going crazy. By choosing Palin as his running mate, he has just ensured Obama's victory by landslide.

[todmarbri]

Hahaha actually you have that completely backwards. The Obama campaign is shitting their pants right now and you know it. Obama will lose by a huge margin in November. I guarantee it.

[WJTORCAN]

Using some tough language,huh? I guess you're just another immature Mac Daddy fan.

[WJTORCAN]

Well, I guess you're just another immature MacDaddy fan. America would be a much better place without an idiot like you.

[todmarbri]

Well, I guess you're just another idiotic, deaf, dumb, and blind Obamination maniac. America will be a much better place in November after his ass is sent packing back to Illinois.

[papitosabe]

@WJTORCAN exactly..that was planned...all presidents are pre-chosen...we're just led to believe we do the choosing...

[flamegame33]

the presidency of the united states is not a beauty contest, nor is it a battle to see who can outwit each other. As a woman, I feel very insulted.

[todmarbri]

She is a absolutely remarkable woman. You should feel proud that she is the VP selection. Finally someone who isn't a complete politician. I think she has more moral fiber than any of the rest combined. I am very excited to hear what she has to say.

[007ObiWan]

The ratings for her VP speech on Wednesday will be massive.

She will be the pitbull McCain needs to expose the truth about Barack the emaciated arugula eater.

[osdavis]

McCain and the Republican Party have still got it, and Palin inspired the brilliant new expression "VPILF." Obama's gotta be shaking a bit about this one...

[aros1985]

Sex Sells.

McCain's campaign strategy is used to sell condoms and shampoo as well.

All you people who think this is a good pick are fucking retarded. Her main selling point is that she didn't have an abortion.

[deewillyfree]

Oh My God!

What a powerhouse presence this woman commands. I knew she had a tough accomplished record of performance but I never knew she has such carisma as well. Now, I realize carisma should NEVER be anything more than icing on an otherwise well built cake, but wow, it is refreshing!

Stick a fork in Obama ... he's cooked. He's finished because SupahStarness is the ONLY thing he has going for him

[Centerman2k]

When did Tina Fey change her name?

[PsychoRookie]

Awestricken, exhilarated, ecstatic! Now I am fascinated and thrilled with the Presidential race. ABOUT TIME!!

[diceroni12]

McCain/Palin!!! all the way obama is done!!!!!!!!

[jaif4]

I dont know sara palin to say any thing about her but this pick says alot about seneter mcCain, I always thought he put his country first, this is the most important decision he will ever make before becoming a president, all past presidents said so, to me I can't even defend this pick with a straight face, it is just too obviouse she was picked becouse she is a woman and get him some of Hillary voters and that is putting your own politican ambitions first, too bad history will remeber for this.

[majesticamerican]

jaif4, you have nailed it...McCain puts himself first before our country, this is clearly a political move rather than a rational decision~~I'm speechless, VP is a heartbeat away from become the President, with so many health problems McCain has, she could be our next president...Unbelievable..How can McCain seriously believe we are going to vote for him because he picked a female VP???

[todmarbri]

No. He picked a remarkable human being who has shown incredible strength and drive in every aspect of her life. Do some research on her on your own instead of listening to any news agency. You'll be impressed.

[mgw12]

Awesome move....this is good move!

[mgw12]

Awesome move....this is good move!

[cmyoung1969]

I am a right wing extremist and I can believe I thought the BARRY OSAMA speech was OK. even though I knew you spoke nothing new and spoke nothing about change, it is all the same for the left, and maybe the right also, but SARA Rocks!! I am fired up

[pcards20]

WOW! They say that sex sells, but really! Talk about desperation. McPain will have a hard time keeping his hands to himself.

[pcards20]

Nice try McPain. They say sex sells, but really! Just try to keep your hands to yourself.

[pcards20]

Nice try McPain. I know they say sex sells, but really. Just keep your hands to yourself.

[theeraserhead]

Wow, what a loser comment. She's a perfect choice in many ways other than being a woman. With an 80 percent approval rating in her state, I can't complain.

[todmarbri]

You've hit the nail on the head!

[habby06]

Nice move MAC DADDY!!!

[another42]

What if - just what if McCain gets struck by a hard attack ?? Is Mrs. Palin taking over - really ???? Governed by an accountant bimbo team mom ?? NO THX

Remember the Vice President is selected to jump in just in case and NOT to govern with the president.

[agibson3]

McCain just handed the presidency to Obama.
