Sarcasm aside. This lady is the real American Pie in the Sky story. She lives in Alaska, was in the PTA, city council, mayor, then Governor. Talk about pulling yourself up by your bootstraps. Thats the story to me. Plain Jane (literally) who works herself into the 2nd most important role in the world (possibly). | Harvard Law Grad and Professor of constitutional Law. Which is a lot more impressive then jounalism grad and sports reporter.

But he has an impressive academic career, compare that to hers, sports reporter?

Seems he was the best lawyer running for POTUS this go around. Having said this I am equally unimpressed with journalists also. But, they do pretty much the same job. Talk and lie. |

George W. Bush has degrees from Yale and Harvard, but that has never stopped you from criticizing his intelligence and capacity to be the President.

| Casting my vote for Sarah Palin Finally, I have a true conservative to vote for. Hopefully, she will keep an eye on that crook socialist appeaser McCain and keep him inline. The best way to tell if McCain deviates from true conservatives principles is if she resigns and blasts McCain on er way out.
I'm voting for Palin, not for McCain... or against Obama. (and please, save me the crap about voting for Palin is the same as voting for McCain... I'm in no way supporting that guy. I've just found a reason to cast a vote for the Palin/McCain ticket) Palin/McCain 2008!!!!!!

| I love this choice. It will be much easier pushing the button for McCain knowing Palin is on the ticket. |

I, too, feel as though I have someone to vote for now, as opposed to just voting against obama. |
