Well duh, noone ever said she had the same experience as McCain or Biden but then neither does Obama. At least she is only running for VP.

Biden is Mr. Resume with 30 years of experience. He has traveled to Iraq numerous times and has incredible knowledge of world affairs. Their VP choice has only been outside America once!

To be honest, I have no idea why McCain didn't consider Kay Baily Hutchison as a VP pick.

AND Mr Biden has voted in favor of the Credit Card industry, his constituents in De over YOUR needs in 2005 and was the only candidate to do so. No small thing but he was right, none of you noticed it.

Not even when two faced OBAMA said "now is the time for bankruptcy law reform" hahahahah jokers

Think of your credit card predatory interest rate every time you see good old INSIDER JOE.

Because Kay was not interested, as she said repeatedly in TV interviews. She is planning a run for Texas governor.

They dont get along, she is an insider and doesnt want it anyway.

I'm quite sure the firey Palin is much more able to fuel the reformer agenda even though the woman haters here would like to make it nasty. So get ready for the sexual accusations to start.

That would have been pretty outstanding.

Either she is hiding something or she turned him down.

Various media outlets have speculated that many turned McCain down when asked.
