i don’t think she knows what the word “specifically” means.

Until she was twenty-five.
44 – 19 = 25

Not that it matters by now.

Wow…what parallel universe are you living in?The $480,000,000 you’re obsessed with was not “thrown at everyone” by Obama, but rather thrown at Obama by everyone…his supporters.

And, by the way, most of it was raised in very small increments by working class people, such as myself, while most of McCain’s campaign money came from private fundraisers and lobbyists.

“How is Obama so much more qualified than Palin?” Are you serious? How about the fact that McCain tried to trash Obama for being ‘inexperienced’, and then abandoned that refrain when he picked as his running mate someone who’s been governor of the least populous state for only 2 years?
How about the fact that Obama went to Harvard Law School and taught Constitutional Law at a university, while Palin went to school for journalism and didn’t know who Putin was until she became a candidate for VP?

“Obama’s ties to a country and people who hate America?” And who might that be? I don’t know where you’re getting this questionable info, but here’s news…FACT: Palin’s HUSBAND was involved with a group who tried to get Alaska to SECEDE from the lower 48. Patriotic, huh?

And when did “throwing fancy words around” become a bad thing? Just because a candidate (Obama) can handle himself eloquently, avoid embarassing himself on national TV, and make logical points does not mean he has something to hide or is trying to personally insult you. It probably just reflects the fact that he went to the best law school in the country.

“Obama has rejected our flag, our national anthem.” Again: WRONG. I mean, I can see why you would resent Obama if that were true, I would too. But it’s simply not. It’s a scare tactic. Obama cares deeply about helping our people come together, why else would he have been a community organizer?

What about the $150,000 spent on Palin’s wardrobe for the campaign? Why didn’t you mention that, since you seem to be quite the ameteur financial adviser?

“Why won’t anyone try to get the facts before they criticize or judge others?” Was it not you, Heather, who called all of the people on this blog “so damn ignorant” 4 sentences earlier? Did you “get the facts” about these people before you judged/criticized them? Silly me, of course you did. You’re no hypocrite. You’re votin’ for Sarah Palin. Darn Right.

2. On the 5 colleges in 5 years.. Don’t make it sound like she made the transfers because she got expelled or couldn’t hack the academic work! Her moving around has been explained elsewhere & it’s not because she was shifty nor dumb.. By the way,I don’t know how the info was accessible, but if her IQ is 120, that is for a bright normal, certainly not a moron. I supppose she could have gotten into Harvard too esp if there were a quota for her special group of Pentecostals. According to the experts, there are many types of intelligence. How many of these does she have? How many would she need if she were to become vice president? I think Katie Couric is a decade or so older.. How much polish could Sara Palin acquire in a decade amongst the polished elite if she were to become vice-president? I assure you, she would not even need a decade. Well,agreeing without conceding that she is dumb… What is the moral value of that compared to plagiarizing more than once as Joe Biden is supposed to have done? I need to look up the meaning of moral turpitude.

She just turned 44… What has she done with her life in those short years? Granting exposure counts and she has not been exposed to the kind of things by which she is now being judged.. It would not take long for her to know basic ideas much less data. Her kind of person__ her character and values will allow that.

3. On John McCain maybe not “having long” on this earth… Age is maybe one, but not by any means the singular and conclusive predictor of how long ANYONE of us will be on this earth. Anyone of us can go at any time…no one knows.

4. If Sarah Palin were not good looking, would people be more kind? Here is a woman who remains feminine and does not attempt to look like a man or be a man-hater to achieve what she has achieved. She has spirituality that she is not ashamed to acknowledge before the whole world..She has strong family values and a loving and supportive husband and extended family. Do these just come naturally, or are they achieved by certain kinds of people with certain kinds of qualities? Maybe, some Palin haters are jealous and don’t even know it?

I am voting Republican.

The experts say neither of the presidential candidates will be able to do much about the economy anyway; Also, capitalism has failed this time, but we at least know why. It’s not a reason to ditch it. Would Socialism be better? “Redistribute the wealth”.. That’s scary.

From their campaign talk it seems that Mr OBama will try to do (Joe Biden spoke in riddles, I wonder what that will be?)something different on the war on terror. Dancing before my eyes are 9/11, the beheadings on TV. USS Cole & all the other atrocities that we do know of and not just speculating on…

Postscript: On George Bush.

The economic crisis is not George Bush’s nor the Republican Party’s fault. The war in Iraq is not George Bush’s fault. Did either happen on one man’s say-so? Anyway, why do many people tacitly assume that we would be at peace and no one would have died had we not gone to Iraq and Afghanistan?

She clearly said the party’s credential’s alone, not Obama’s. Get it right please. Secondly, let’s be real, one strong breeze and McCain is going to die. You’ll take a haphazard ex governer over a moore prepared senator? and what about biden’s experience? that doesnt count either?

When you vote for a president, you must take into consideration their running mate and potential picks for cabinet. McCain has chosen Palin, a woman who is oblivious about damn near everything.. who else will he appoint? Obama has chosen someone more experienced and well versed than he, doesnt it show something?

What do i like about Obama? i like a presidential candidate who wants to get something done for the majority of the country, and doesnt mind asking questions and talking things out before he pisses more people off elsewhere, because lest we forget, we are NO LONGER the most powerful country in the world? WOMP

God bless Bush’s terms are up, because i’m convinced an idiot like you really would vote for him again.
