To be fair to Palin, she does have financial experience as she’s lived quite close to a bank. But I’ll admit if it’s human rights and financial responsibilty you want she’s probably not your first choice.

I don’t think it is a joke. Well, I as I can see, Palin is always exist an effort every time she faces in the public, of course, all candidates are like that. However, in less than one week, we will find out who will be our Commander in Chief for the next four years. There are new controversies surrounding both the Democrat and Republican camps. For instance, there has been a lot of talk all over the news and media reporting that the Republican National Committee spent about $150,000 on new clothes for Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin. This story has not only attracted the attention of many Americans, but has stirred a flood of negative publicity. Although both Palin and Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama have spent a large amount on clothing alone, some people have been quick to target the Alaska Governor. However, we are living in a society where looks, more than anything else, are what we base our judgment of people on. If you have one candidate who is dressed in designer clothing, and somebody else dresses in attire distinctly from a clearance rack, the latter will not be taken seriously. They spent a lot less on Sarah’s wardrobe than Obama spends on TV commercials. And look at the attention Sarah Palin is getting with her wardrobe. It doesn’t seem like such a bad political move. Anyway, America should not make a decision on who to vote for based on clothing, especially since the future of our country is at stake. With this in mind, vote for the candidate that supports our freedom for human rights and personal financial responsibility.

I think you’ve hit the nail on the head with this post. And I agree with K above; people will vote for her regardless of her abilities simply because she’s on the Republican ticket.

I think it’s valid to argue that she was chosen as McCain’s VP simply because of the PR she brings to the table. Let’s face it, McCain is the “dead fish” mentioned by K (at least when compared to Obama). He needed a little spice in his campaign. Is Palin the sort of spice he needed? In the end the answer will be no because at the rate that she’s self destructing, even the die hard Republicans will be questioning their vote.

At any rate, good post.

`This leads me to a question for “middle America”: Are you really so stupid that this woman appeals to you? Do you base your votes, not on policies or ability, but by someone’s ability to “speak directly to you“?’

Umm … yes, they are. They really are. Not just America, but ‘middle-just-about-anywhere’. We had 10 years of Howard for the very same reason, `being decisive’ and systematically attacking any thoughtful input as `elitist’. Plenty of people just love that bullshit. And they get to vote!

He’s another gem from the interview if you haven’t yet seen it.

The mind boggles … well, except with all those kids, and the stories of her vindictive scheming. That probably didn’t leave any time to read newspapers or dabble in any of that high-falutin book-learnin’ guff.

K – Thanks for your comments.

It is hard for us to ignore the US election (believe me I have tried) as not only do we get it shoved down our throats in every news bulletin (and I watch a lot of news) but there is the very real problem of America being the worlds Superpower – your President has an awful lot of impact on the rest of us.

Sadly, my last sentence isn’t quite true. Not only will the American people have to suffer if they vote McCain/Palin, but so will the rest of us. Maybe we should be allowed a vote

PS I’m generally impressed at how overseas blogs like this one are attentive to the US election. I’m sure it would take a few tries to find an American in a crowd that could tell you for example who the UK PM is. Heck, it’d be as hard to find someone who knows who the Canadian PM is.

Some people will vote Republican if the candidate was a dead fish.

To be fair, some would vote Democrat in the same case.

Actually a dead fish would be better than McPalin, since a dead fish won’t deregulate banks and won’t start new wars or authorize troops for existing ones, etc. But doing nothing is the Libertarian party’s dominion.

Anyway, the diehard figure no matter who is the candidate, the core principles will be sound: tax cuts for the rich and for corporations, strong worldwide military might and will to use it, deregulation of most businesses, hedge against social permissiveness.

Which is why the last few Republican leaders have been empty sheets… it doesn’t matter who the person is — in fact, the less substantive the better, because the more pliable they will be to the party establishment (neocons / PNAC / John Birch).
