I have no plans to vote for McCain/Palin, but can somebody please explain to me why you would want them to run anything? He doesn't understand the economy and she understand even less...
"Gov. Sarah Palin made her first potentially major gaffe during her time on the national scene while discussing the developments of the perilous housing market this past weekend.
Speaking before voters in Colorado Springs, the Republican vice presidential nominee claimed that lending giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac had "gotten too big and too expensive to the taxpayers." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/0..._n_124792.html

Exactly...and neither does Mccain. Not sure about Biden but 3 of 4 people in line to run this country know nothing about one of the biggest issues on the block. Be scared people...no matter who wins...be scared

What would it take for you to admit that Palin had made a gaffe? Knowing the status of Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac nowadays is pretty important and commonly known give the state of the housing market. If Obama had made that mistake, I'd have no problem ripping into him for it.

It would not take anything, I realize Palin is human and may have made some mistakes--i would certainly not blame her for Fannie May though...
It's easy to be a popular governor. All you need is to have access to lots of easy money (oil companies) that you can take (tax) and giving it (spread) to your constituents.
A community organizer is so much more qualified. LOL!
Yep. Community organizer. Harvard Law Degree. 10 years, more or less, as Professor of Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago Law School. Several years as a state senator, then U.S. senator.
Palin? B.A. in Journalism (after several years and several low-ranking colleges). Local newscaster in Alaska. Mayor of a city that has 1/3 more people than my high school had. Less than 2 years as governor of a state that has fewer people than the Boston metropolitan area. Guilty of ethics violation.
The choice is clear.
