Now let's see if this gets spun into a large scandal (and I'm sure the Obama camp will latch onto this like pitbulls). Either way, the ship named Palin seems to be starting to sink...

So far I have not voted on the presidential poll, I thought so far it could not have been forseen who would make it. But now I did. With the economic crisis, his passive role during the presidential meeting on the crisis, the Palin debacle now all picking at his reputation, while time is running out, the campaign of his side having turned into a smear, him alreaedy trailing behind in key states, I think McCain will not make it - and it is good that way.

However, Obama nevertheless will be a hasrh awakening for us europeans, he is vastly misinterpreted here as somebody who will not stand for america first - and that most likely will turn out to be wrong. While communication maybe will be more civil and polite with him, I'm sure he will give us headaches on many issues.

I understood the poll to be on whom we see most likely to win - not whom we desire to win. Seen that way I give Obama 60:40 chances. Voting I would not for any of the two.

And Palin, well, she is not more than a well-dressed girlie with narcissistic amibitions and an ice-cold smile hiding the huge vaccum behind her face. Back into the snake-pit where your crawled out of, super-mommy.
