GOP VP thread: Palin is the pick

Re: GOP VP thread: So who will McCain name today?

Hell, no, Moddy. They don't know anything. All they want to do is argue and make fun of one another.

President of the United F-ing States?

Yeah. OK.

She has more true executive experience than Obama has in his little . . . pinky.

What are her views on Iraq, Afghanistan, Darfur, Georgia, Russia and The EU? We know Obama's.

But does Palin have any worldly experience beyond the Alaska? That's what I'm curious about, because if anything happens to a 72-year-old president, I want to know she knows more than Alaskan politics.

As far as I can tell, Obama has world politics experience. Palin does not, so there's no comparison in "experience."

I was going to ask the same thing. What's her "executive experience"?

That she was mayor a small town in Alaska?

No

What you posted has been mentioned before a few times (this storm started on page 10ish).

Hey, by Tuesday we will all have forgotten about her and be focusing on a little guy named Gustav.

First of all.... let's hope that she has more than what's contained in Obama's pinkie.

That and the 18-20 months as governor of the state.

She's had to make executive decisions, even if it's on a scale some here aren't comfortable with.

There are a lot of ethics issues for a year and a half in office.

Usually, you mind your ps and qs early on.

I'd have to say probably not. I guess we'll find out. All I've ever heard her talk about is Alaska politics, so it's kind of hard for me to say. I think she'd have been a hell of a pick after a little time in the Senate (in fact, I'd think she'd be a hell of a presidential candidate after a little time in the Senate) but right now? I don't think she's ready to be president. But then again, like I've said, I've only heard her talk Alaska.

She has the brains for it. There's no doubt in my mind about that part. The obvious lacking point is foreign policy. But then, if she becomes president, maybe she has a VP (seeing as someone's got to move into that slot) who can fill in that gap for her.

I'm sure she is one HELL of a governor of Alaska and was probably a great mayor of a town smaller than the audience Obama spoke to in February when he used my office as a changing room.
No doubt she's a quality woman, mom, all that jank.

Is she ready to be president? Yes or no.

Eight years ago when McCain was running for President, Obama was getting his ass handed to him in a congressional run.

Is he ready to be president?

If Obama is, then Palin is.

Well, yes. Just answering the executive experience question.
