She has so much personality it was like she was making love to the whole audience, the news media, the camera and yes even all of America last night.

Yeah, the "Brittany Spears" of politics... SHE SAID NOTHING... folks. She played the part perfectly and impressed those who won't take the time to REALLY look at what she has done politically. Go ahead. I dare you to take a few minutes and examine her political history. I think you'll see an entirely different Sarah Palin than the one schmoozing on stage...
Here's a headstart (from a commentary on CNN which I wholeheartedly agree with):
1. McCain and Palin get their health insurance paid for by the government (hers in Alaska and his in Washington). Yet they oppose giving the nearly 46 million uninsured Americans the same access to affordable health care.
2. John McCain's kids don't have to worry about paying for college. Yet he has opposed every single education support program to help others.
3. McCain and Palin say they will stand up to oil companies. Yet the only energy policy they support gives millions of dollars in tax breaks to oil companies to do more drilling and he has opposed every piece of federal legislation to explore alternative fuel sources.
4. McCain and Palin say they will revamp how Washington does business. Yet his campaign is filled with lobbyists and she has cooperated with Sen. Ted Stevens in funneling federal money for useless projects in Alaska for years. And McCain and Palin have no solutions for Americans worrying about their jobs in a fragile economy.
5. McCain and Palin want us to leave their families alone. Yet they want to make rules for our families by eliminating our right to make our own choices over abortion, eliminate our access to family planning education or domestic partner benefits, and our freedom from discrimination.
They want to control what our kids learn in school about sex and about science. In short, through the policies they promote and the judges they support, they want the government to have more control over our private lives than at any time in history.
6. McCain and Palin now say their campaign is about change, too. Yet the only real change they have proposed is a change from a suit to a skirt in the vice president's office and one man fighting a misplaced war for another in the Oval Office.

Years ago I enjoyed a really talented hooker too...
Sarah Palin is "window dressing" for McCain. It's the "Look, a black guy is running for President. So what? I've got a woman... "... Obama SHOULD have picked Clinton and he could have had the whole enchilada. As it is, I'm not unhappy with Biden. At least he's got some foreign policy experience...
I don't care WHAT McCain or Palin do with/for their families. What I care about is how their choices will affect MY family...
Besides, do YOU want Sarah Palin in charge of the US Military if McCain "checks out"?
