Could anyone really want this disaster as the president?

She reminds me of Martin Sheen in Stephen King's the "Dead Zone" movie. Don't doubt for a minute she would snatch up a kid as a human shield to protect herself!

Oh,wait!!...She's alreeady doing that with her own offspring!

Better yet I see her ordering the General to "press the button" so she could start a world war to stop the commies she sees acreoss her ocean and cement her place in history.
Strange, she fits that character to a tee.

GRoar:

I had no idea! If his party had worked the media as if it mattered, I would have voted for him last time. Without working the media though, a vote for him was just tossed to sea...IMO. I didn't want to be almost the only one AGAIN.

Thank you for the correction!

Everytime there's a presidential gala or shindig, I wonder if he would do it differently (because he's an economist).

As for Sarah Palin, I could survive an incumbancy but I'd prefer not to.

You can't be serious to make your reasoning on someone that has basically been in charge of wilderness areas as a governor and mayor! Have you ever been to Alaska? There's nothing there! What is this idiotic woman to govern in Alaska? A handful of hillbillies and wildlife? That would make her suitable for Washington??

Don't kid me.

Don't even have to read the thread to say, "Disagree". She proved that well during the campaign, and has continued afterward in the same vein.

I think she would, but the media is working overtime to totally destroy her because the fear her, so far they have done a great job and unfortunatly she has no chance of ever being president, thanks to the state run media that spins stories any way they want.
