But then it emerged she had made a re-fuel stopover at Shannon airport on her way to rally the troops in the second county she's been to; Kuwait!!

It's McCain who should be booted out of government for this - Palin's another one of his trophy women. Notice the similarities between "Mrs." and "Governor"? They say nothing - life is a vacuum filled with benefits that keep them going.

On the other hand, it's patently obvious poor John couldn't get anyone else to run with him. Tsk, tsk. Signs John that you shouldn't have tried this race. Who on earth will support him if he was elected? The people? Good luck.

Pain's speech is outrageous - she is a national disgrace. We teach our children to speak correctly, and here is a VEEP candidate pushed to meet with foreign heads of state unable to speak English correctly, and she can't cope with the simplest inteviews without falling apart. Negotiate with Iran!? cOME ON!

What must the McCain campaign have paid those she met with to tolerate such abuse from her. Someone needs to call out a business-attire consultant for her, too. Let's get that woman dressed, coifed, and speaking properly or we'll end up with another Bush on our hands.

Saint's preserve us.

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Sarah Palin and her bid to be a heartbeat away from being President.
The old rancher said 'well, ya know, Palin is a post turtle.' Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a post turtle is.
The old rancher said, 'when your driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle'
The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctors face, so he continued to explain...You know she didn't get up there by herself, she doesn't belong up there, she doesn't know what to do while she is up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put her up there to begin with.

I don't know what future debates are planned in the run up to the November election, but on reading this and listening to Palin, it strikes me that the more media coverage like this that Palin can get, the better for the Democrats. A four-way debate, with McCain and Obama debating economic policy, while Palin and Biden debate foreign policy could be both instructive and entertaining.

The more I hear about McCain and Palin, the more their nomination seems to be a put-on. They are totally laughable characters who no one in their right mind would take seriously, let alone send to the White House. This is very much like Bob Dole's candidacy against Clinton. It was a joke.

The question is: why did the Repukes choose these two obvious losers? Anyone out there have any ideas?

Governor Palin sounds like she has been crammed with too many facts, and has had inadequate time to assimilate it all. Her performance rather reminds me of the scene in My Fair Lady, in which Eliza Doolittle babbles on at the Ascot opening races, elegantly transitioning from the rain in Spain to hurricanes in Hampshire.

I never would have thought I'd say this, but Katie Couric for VP! It's obvious that Ms Couric's experience as a morning talk show host and anhcor of a major network nightly news broadcast has given her more knowledge and capability than Sahra has in her little finger. Having Sahra Palin one heart beat away from the presidency scares the hell out of me.

...the sad fact is that Palin is still revving up the GOP base because she's a hardcore conservative like Bush and because she has that relatively youthful, plucky aura.

Thankfully, outside of that, more and more people who are independents and former Hilary supporters are realizing what a pathetic dunce she is. Like Sarah Silverman, they're probably also wondering "Can't we have people in the White House that we don't have to be ashamed of anymore?"

What I find truly unsettling is that because McCain is keeping his medical record closely guarded (probably because there's some unsettling heath problems documented there), we might have to suffer through at least 2-3 years of her administration if he gets elected.

As bad as Bush is, try to imagine how much worse she could make things for everyone. If that scenario does play out, you can also expect that the likelihood of another female candidate is going to be pretty low for a long time to come.

This candidate may seem like a joke but the joke may be on us if the Republicans don't care who's running because they have no intention of allowing the voters to decide our leadership regardless!

While we're all paying attention to the McPain train wreck, there are systematic efforts being launched or continued in Democratic districts around the county to suppress, intimidate, or disable the voting process. Paperless and other computerized voting machines are proven insecure and I'll bet there will be fewer machines than needed in Democratic districts in Ohio, Florida, Michigan, New Hampshire, Colorado, and Nevada- ensuring long lines and short tempers at the polls.

The attempts to throw valid Democratic voters off the rolls in each of the battleground states is also already underway, too, with challenges being prepared against voters who face foreclosure in Ohio, people with names similar to felons (or just black-sounding) in Florida, and those without "proper ID" (even if there is no ID requirement).

We have a bunch of power-drunk criminals in the White House who are not going to go easily from "untouchability" to vulnerability. I, for one, don't trust the electoral process to work after the last two Presidential elections- certainly not without serious oversight and a healthy dose of skepticism on the part of the American electorate! Do you seriously think Cheney has any intention of ending his reign as shadow dictator? Or that Karl Rove is no longer the primary architect of Republican dirty trick politics? Keep your eyes on the ball, people!

What citizens can and should do:

Especially if you live in any of the swing states, please consider being a poll worker or watcher! Check out your local election board's website for information on how.

Go early and DO NOT leave the polls if the lines are long. Call in sick to work, don't go to class, arrange for child care- do whatever it takes! Bring a snack, a book, and 3-5 friends with you to the polls and make sure you record your vote in some way.

If you are suspicious about conduct at the polls, document the incident(s), have the local election board's number handy and call them. Also have numbers for local voting rights organization and your chapter of the ACLU.

Be prepared to protest the result if it does not reflect our will as a people. We must not allow our democracy to be subverted again!

There are millions of subjects in this world that I am not qualified to discuss, but how Sarah Palin presents when she speaks is not among them. At one point in my life I taught high school for ten years. Trust me on this--- Palin comes across not as a professional or even as a politician, but as a high school student---one who is working at C level. I have also taught college undergraduates and graduate students. Hear me: Palin is working at high school level.

Palin's opponents (and they are legion) need to be careful. Hard-hitting attacks will probably generate sympathy. Katie Couric had it about right: Ask her fairly simple questions, and allow her to sink herself with incoherent and/or absurd answers.

At the moment, Palin is simply out of her league. Sort of like a mediocre Single-A ballplayer promoted to the Bigs during the World Series. She's just "not ready to lead"--nor ready to speak in coherent sentences.

McCain picked Palin for one reason -- the fake pass -- to distract the American people from the real issues -- and to distract the American people from taking a hard look at who McCain is today and what policies he's proposing should he become president.

McCain's whole presidential campaign has been about one Fake Pass over another -- it's never been about the issues -- and the Rove Republicans - who McCain has signed on for as their poster boy -- are just hoping that the clock runs out and he gets in.

Wake up, America! This crap is happening right in front of our faces -- and we're not doing anything about it other than ignoring that Rove Republicans aren't just about this election -- they are really about changing up our entire democracy -- they've put us deep in historic deficits and trade deficits, they decimated the economy and now want a $700 billion taypayer bailout without any strings attached, we're bailing out Fannie and Freddie - 2 government agencies that the Republicans privatized to disasterous end -- we're bailing out AIG (one of McCain's biggest donors) -- they've given the Executive Branch more power ever in our history, suspended habeus corpus, shut down any access to information; are building fences on our borders; decimated our individual rights and state's rights -- Are you listening?

Ask yourself -- Are we really the democracy that our forefathers gave their lives for? or some quasi-democracy -- a shell of a democracy --

Remember people, Mussolini was ELECTED by a democracy -- and remember what happened?!

This crap is happening -- wake up and do whatever you have to do to get Obama in there --think about our future generations!

The more she squeals about control the more states will slip from their fingers. This election is not about Sarah's wonderful state of Alaska. It is about the American People and their ravening need for ANY cheap energy source.

But even the gas guzzling American public can see what having her in office will mean. They are just trying to bamboozle themselves into believing she is not as bad as she seems and really does have a solution!

In the mean time let the grungy so and so set sights on enslaving the American people to a Religious Corporatocracy. The resulting furor is just the torpedo that will sink her ass.

It's ironic that McHoover brought on Sarah to im-Palin his campaign in order to pander to women. Most of the women I speak to are mortified by this selection. Many of the "dudes and rednecks" I know say stuff like, "I'd do her" or "I'd like to field undress her".

I think Obama almost had it right. It's not just the Republican Party that likes to revel in it's stupidity, it's the whole freakin' nation! The dumbing down of America is truly frightening...

So, instead of having a President y'all'd like to have a beer with, we have a VP candidate y'all'd like to "do". (Shaking my head in dis-belief...)

And before you jump down my throat for putting down "dudes and rednecks", let me say this; I live in the South and I'm truly a bit of a hick myself. Observation is just observation. Just sayin'...

The more and more I watch Sarah Palin and listen to her comments, the more she looks and sounds like that innocent girl from South Carolina a few months back. The difference is that I felt that girl's pain in trying to find her answers, temporarily losing her train of thought under the lights. Not so with Mrs. Palin. She's a politician running for the VP (and possibly eventually President) of this country and ought to be able to give answers more relevant to the questions asked. She seems in way over her head.

Just my opinion.

CONSERVATIVE COLUMIST ASKS PALIN TO QUIT: Dear friends, I bring a gift. This morning major conservative columnist Kathleen Parker has called upon Sarah Palin to withdraw her VP candidacy for the good of the GOP ticket and of the United States. Parker's exact words:

I guess we can add "Complete Ineptitude on Foreign Policy & International Relations" to Sarah Palin's pathological lying on the stump. This certifies her dunce status in this area of required presidential skills.

I truly feel that McCain's election would actually damage the cause of women for equal treatment because of what Sarah Palin would do using this level of ignorance in a position of power.

If you'd like to see what that would be like, just review most of George W. Bush's presidency and the boneheaded, shortsighted moves he's made. Same deal for Ms. Palin even in the position of VP. God forbid someone this unprepared would ever be asked to lead the nation as our president. Given the current state of the nation, we deserve better than that.

The most common and most efficient "Great Circle" polar air routes from Moscow - or anywhere in Western Russia or Eastern Europe - to New York or Washington D.C. - DO NOT EVER TOUCH Alaskan airspace!

They do touch Canadian airspace and Danish airspace (over Greenland) but they do NOT touch Alaskan airspace, unless the flight is connecting via the Russian Pacific e.g. Vladivostok.

So even on this point Sarah's remarks are silly and uninformed.

(I wonder why I have never seen this correction elsewhere on the web or in the press.)

For confirmation go to a globe or to Google Earth and just draw the straightest path from Moscow to Washington. It's not over Alaska.

And re: "seeing Russia from my window" - that's not true either. One cannot see Russia, even with a very powerful teloscope, from either Anchorage, Juneau or Wasilla.

Has Ms. Palin ever told the truth about anything?

Sarah Failin' is a walking dumb blonde joke. You guys left out the best part of the interview. When Couric was really pressing Failin' about the importance of Alaska being linked by a narrow land strip to Russia, she actually said, "I don't know...."

Anybody who thinks McPain and Palin are jokes.... beware... I thought Reagan was a kook, I thought Bush 41 was an idiot, and Bush 43 ... no words, my comment when asked was: I wouldn't hire him as an accountant, or a gardner.

By staying on the low end of the IQ scale, they are playing underdog,. McCain is playing doddering old fool who needs help, she is playing virgin in the clutches of King Kong.

Biden has to watch it, he is a loose cannon. He tries to preach, and it comes across as phony. He recently made a terrible blunder, about Roosevelt going on TV after the Wall Street crash. He meant, of course: during the Depression, FDR instituted the fireside chats on the radio, which was very comforting, it gave people the sense that someone was out there taking care of matters.
My advice to Biden (as a journalist and copy writer and occasional speech writer) would be to play it VERY STRAIGHT with her, don't condescend, just be the number cruncher, etc... no making fun of her. Let Sarah Palin impale herself, she does it with great virtuosity.

Same for Obama.

The GOP is not stupid, and they have won a lot of elections.

And there is the October surprise. I wonder if they will pull Osama out of the deep freezer now.... I have always thought they would do it at an ultra critical time.

I ate a few ounces of mushrooms in my lunch yesterday I guess. First there was a bailout agreement, then there wasn't. Then my trip REALLY kicked in and Mike Pence said the economic crises was caused by too much regulation and that TAX CUTS on capital gains would get the markets going. Then I knew my fantastic voyage was peaking when I watched some clips of Palin being interviewed and caught the phrase "Ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform" and I got angry, those motherfuckers worried about healthcare sunk our economy?!?!

Then I was relieved because in my drug addled state I had an epiphany that put Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and Milton Friedman to shame when she said "reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions" How did the best economic minds of all time miss that one? Reduce taxes by tax reductions! Brilliant!

Then the trip went bad as I cringed in fear "Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where -- where do they go? It's Alaska" some big evil dragon named Putin was breathing fire all over Alaska. She has my vote. If she is going to jail health care reformers, cut taxes, and slay that evil dragon I think she will be fantastic.

At the RNC, Ms. Palin presented herself as a fully-qualified "woman of the people" while smugly belittling the education and experience of Mr. Obama.

Knowing about her provincial, insular, Evangelical, black and white politics in small-town Wasilla, she strikes me as caddy, incurious, and insidious.

While I hate to see people in pain or in embarrassment, I have trouble feeling sorry for a woman, who, if she is intelligent, fully knew what she was getting in to. She is clearly a personally ambitious and impulsive individual who sought the glitter of political power.

Her hubris compromises her ability to realize that she knows almost nothing about anything that she needs to know for a VP position. She is absolutely oblivious.

While McCain is complicit in her fall from grace (she was clearly a political too), I no longer feel sorry for Ms. Palin when I see her unable to demonstrate knowledge or responses that most attentive high school students could produce.

I believe that we have only seen the tip of the iceberg.

The woman is a complete and utter idiot. Katie Couric obviously realized it about 10 seconds into the interview and also realized she was in a great position to display this fact to the voters. Great job, Ms. Couric. Now, if only the voters would do the right thing because the McCain-Palin ticket will bring in the demise of this country as we know it. It's painfully obvious that Palin is a puppet waiting in the wings for McCain to kick the bucket, and then her handlers will pull the strings. Compared to these people, Bush and Cheney are pikers.

Palin isn't running for VP. She's running for President. Palin and her right wing extremist handlers expect McCain to die within a very short time, and then the Barbie Puppet will be the leader of the free world. Then, the USA becomes a full on right wing theocracy, with the real leaders in the shadows. But, jeez, they could have found a more coherent puppet somewhere. This woman is achingly stupid, and astoundingly arrogant. Her hubris is monumental. A McCain presidency would be disastrous, but a Palin presidency would be the end of civilization as we know it.

And, with Palin in Alaska, I would fight for the right to arm bears (and moose...and little fluffy kittens).

(Gosh, will anyone read this?)

In the 2004 election, Thomas Frank was correct when he came out with his book about how Republicans win elections even though they subvert the interests of those they hoodwink into voting for them.

I'm not sure if he was 100% original with that idea or not. But he did a nice job crystallizing it, and broadcasting it.

Now, in the 2008 election he has come out with another book about how the conservatives actively worked to rid the government of really intelligent people.

I must add that Andrew Bacevich is doing a nice job with his idea on how we've gone from a producer society to a consumer one, and how we have been using the military to sustain our unsustainable and dysfunctional lifestyle. He talks about how Carter's message of thrift and saving was just blasted out of the water by the CANDY ALL THE TIMEQ! message of Reagan.

Good stuff.

to buy into the Republican spin game. Her answers give us a window into how Sarah Palin's brain functions, and no amount of coaching can mask the way she thinks. It is much more serious than just a bad interview, or a bad debate. She is totally unqualified and anyone who pretends that she is, be it a Repug operative or a TV pundit, is being dishonest.

One would think that these TV pundits would break for the truth, since it is their country too, and surely they can see the same problems as the rest of us...but no. Palin's answers should scare the bejeezus out of all of us.

Please help me understand how this woman ever got in this position? I personally think McCain wanted a yes person to worship him and instead she has made him look somewhat insane. I am a 50 year old republican voting democrat for the first time ever! This morning on the web I saw the two of them with Katie Couric, they said virtually the same thing "gotcha journalism". The question came from a voter, so then poor Katie had to look at both of them and just shake her head in amazement. Mr. McCain had a very stiff smile on his face and Sarah looked like the daughter, tell me daddy.... what do I say. The time Charles Gibson and Katie Couric gave to her has been seen as a huge waste of time. Thank God they did the interviews so we can see there is not much between those ears. Ms. Palin, should say thank you for the offer, but I am out of my capabilities here. McCain should accept that and choose someone else. Then send her back to Alaska, maybe it is just to hot in the lower 48 states!

The more I read about Sarah Palin, the more frightened I become. She reminds me of how I felt when 41 picked Dan Quayle as his running mate. I remember seeing a likeness of Edvard Munch's "The Scream" with the caption underneath reading "President Quayle."

As a Christian minister of the gospel I am appalled at the behavior of both Senator McCain and Governor Palin. As a registered Republican for many years and fearful of what will happen if Obama wins the election I feel it necessary that I speak out and publicly admonish both McCain and Palin. They have both taken on the strategy of the world by vehemently attacking their opponent with half truths and smear tactics. By using the weapons of this world they are about to forfeit their campaign and destroy this country in the process.

How can Palin who claims to be a born again Christian stoop to this kind of behavior and arrogant pride when she should be using spiritual weapons in this struggle against evil? As a Christian I am ashamed and call on her to repent and ask the Christian community to stand behind them in prayer. Let them both stop attacking and start telling the people how McCain can be a better president. Lay out your plans clearly which have been bathed in thoughtful prayer. If you loose this campaign you will have no one to blame but yourself.

As a Spirit filled Christian I do not trust in government to solve this country’s problems nor do I trust in either of you for you (Palin & McCain) have plainly demonstrated your character. Therefore, I call on you today to humble yourself before the Lord Jesus Christ and repent. And if you are fortunate to win this election then I call upon you to lead this country back to serving God rather than self.
