What does my location have to do with anything? Hint - I am a man so no I don't have a husband - and I sure as heck don't have a trust fund.
I am currently rather low on funds - could you toss a few bucks my way?
I believe in hard work, tenacity, and personal responsibility - I believe Mitt Romney does as well.
Mitt Romney will provide economic opportunity and prosperity for all Americans - which is why he is getting my vote in November
Ok, perhaps you might disclose your religious affiliation to help decipher your ardent support for Romney/Ryan.
"Will provide" reeks of certainty. So does "all Americans." I'm no big fan of Obama, and when I walked past his book "The Audacity of Hope" in bookstores during his campaign, I rolled my eyes, thinking "Yeah, another ." Similarly, I roll my eyes about the Romney/Ryan team. This IS NOT the Eisenhower era, so we don't need conservative Mormons and Catholics in the White House at this time. I came up with the topic because choosing the Veep is such a wild card, and when McCain announced his pick as Palin, the thought of having her, and her extended white trash clan, in the White House was indeed frightening. Also, if you need a few bucks tossed your way, you shouldn't be voting Republican anyway.
Most of MY friends despise Sarah Palin. My friends who became fundamentalist Christians/Republicans as part of a "package" like her, yet CANNOT explain why.
Wasn't she a communications major from the University of Idaho, hailing from Sandpoint ID, and who was a weathercaster? What exactly did she have to offer? Her breadth of knowledge of world affairs is limited. Why the heck did McCain pick her as a running mate? (I'm glad he did. He lost!) Has anyone unearthed why that imprudent choice occurred?
First, did you really want an answer?
You already posted you wanted McCain to lose and for some reason you think she did it? Obama has been what to you, a success?
Palin got McCain more votes than he would have had.
McCain was picked by the media for being a moderate and by a lot of cross over Democrats voting in Repiblican primaries.
You are so bitter about this war hero moderate?
Palin speaks plainly and the truth. People like hearing the truth.
One has to have enough geography to know that Africa in not a country. Or at least be smarter than a 5th grader.
I'm pretty sure that was a speaking gaffe, unlike plain who is completely ignorant of politics and economics and foreign policy. Since when has intelligence been important to the republican party? Bush wasnt the sharpest tool in the shed
So, you cannot provide one qualification? What a surprise. This is like when we ask you when Obama raised your taxes or when he tried to take away your guns. Nothin'.
Quick, without looking it up, give us a description of what a community organizer does. Let's see what you know.
If you don't know what qualifications it takes to be president there is nothing anyone can do to help you..
You migh want to pick up a 5th grade book to start.. If you study hard, you will discover obama is an incompetent, corrupt, POS.. Education will set you free...
A hell of a lot more than a "Community organizer" would have.
Following BUSH didn't help Mccain one bit,
JOhn Edwards? lol
Hillary was more qualified but I don't think America wanted to elect a woman, also Hillary is a little hot headed old white women who will most likely get in a man's face... too risky
Obama was really the only Dem who looked regular...
Against Mccain, any dem would have won.
I actually preferred Edwards to be honest, I was surprised he did so bad.

I don't hate Sarah Palin, I think she is uninformed, a bad reality TV star, and a quitter of important jobs.
Has she lied to people? Yeah, all politicians have. Does that make her a bad person? If so everyone is a bad person, because everyone lies.
My dislike of Mrs. Palin is in the fact that she isn't intelligent on issues, she had someone else write a book to ficitionalize her life. She doesn't follow my family values, I'd be damned ashamed if my teenage daughter was knocked up in my house. She quit a very important job, one that many people would kill for, so she could be on reality TV, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?
Oftentimes successful political leaders are not book smart; they are good at managing people and managing conflicting interest groups. A good example was Mayor Richard "Boss" Daley, who went to community college and never met a malapropism he didn't like.
Palin was in this mold, she went up against the Alaska corrupt bastards club and beat it, and that's how she got to be McCain's choice. McCain detested Sen. Ted Stevens, who was one of those that Palin beat, and that was a big reason why he picked her as running mate.
