From the Cafferty File:
All we have heard from John McCain for months is, "Barack Obama is too young. Barack Obama is too inexperienced to be commander-in-chief. Who do you want answering the phone in the White House at three a.m.? Blah, blah, blah."
So what does McCain do? He picks someone to be his running mate who is even younger than Barack Obama and has less experience.
Sara Palin is 44 -- Obama is 47. Sara Palin is in her first term as governor of Alaska, a state that has 13 people and some caribou. Obama is a member of the United States Senate from Illinois.
It's not a big deal, except for this: If McCain wins, he will be the oldest person ever inaugurated for a first term at 72. He has a history of health problems that include bouts of melanoma, a potentially deadly form of skin cancer. It is reasonable to consider that McCain's running mate could be called upon to be our president.
Meanwhile, some may see this as a move for McCain to attract disaffected women who voted for Hillary Clinton and aren't yet behind Obama. But that might not work for a few reasons: Palin, like McCain, is pro-life. Also, she might be a woman, but she's no Hillary Clinton -- when it comes to her experience or her ideology.
At some point, voters will have to ask themselves who they would want running the country if it ever became necessary: Joe Biden or Sarah Palin.
Here's my question to you: Does John McCain undercut his own message by naming someone even younger and more inexperienced than Barack Obama to be his running mate?

I know it's nit-picky, but the little things in language matter, folks. Just look what Alanis Morissette did to "irony/ironic."
I know, popular usage blah, blah, blah... George Carlin is a good quote here: "Well most people are really fucking stupid, shall we just adopt all their standards?"
Well, if you believe in God, then you believe in His inspired Word. Which means you accept the Holy Trinity. Which means you accept Christ. HOWEVER, I was warned years ago by my first pastor not to be bound by "religion" (denominations - Baptist, Methodist, etc.). You get bogged down by tradition and ritual and distracted from the Holy Spirit.
