If McCain and her win, then I really would have lost faith in the intelligence and judgement of this country.
I could not agree more....I think the whole thing is one big joke! Can you imagine what other countries are thinking about this? Laughing bigtime! As I watched some of the RNC...I said to myself....yikes these people all look like misfits of society!

Unfortunately, yes I can picture it and no it is not a pretty picture.

So Alaska has no infrastructure that needs to be managed?

Alaska's extreme enviroment wouldn't give Palin incite on how to deal with natural disasters?
Okay I guess not.

Our country is already in big trouble. We don't need to make it worse.

Going by those requirements, my local County Supervisor is more qualified than her to be VP. We have all of those listed, with the added bonus of having more people than moose living here!
