[AUTailgatingRules]

Fox news is confirming that Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska, will be his VP pick.  What say you?

My initial reaction is that it's a dumb mistake that could cost him the election.  She's younger than The Obama, and she's relatively unknown.  My concern is that this is a political ploy to sway a portion of the disenfranchised Hillary supporters.  Yesterday's rumor was Romney based on an earbud wearing security team that appeared with him everywhere he went.  I hope this is just another stupid rumor...

From what I know of her so far I love this pick. She is a tough chick. 5 kids and still rose to be governor of her state. Got pissed at the governor and resigned to run against him and beat him. Has attacked corruption and pork barrel spending. Played hockey. Damn good looking, miss alaska runner-up.

If she is as good as she looks initially I think McCain may have hit a home run.

My initial reaction is how can McCain pick a woman that has only been governor, of Alaska for that matter, for only 2 years. This is a person that has to be ready to be President of the United States if God forbid something happen to the president.

Then I started reading about her and some of her history and think he may have picked a good one. I will have to wait and read more about her and find our what she is really about before making an overall opinion.

I also think McCain could have picked a chimpanzee and he would have still gotten my vote...

She has as much experience as Governor as The One has as Senator.

The entire bunch of the Hitler Hillary supporters are about to jump off the Dem's sinking ship. Hussein can start the bus. It is OVER! 

Loving it!

Well, I'd put any Governor way ahead of any Senator.  Governors tend to be stronger leaders.  Senators manage, lead and make decisions based on committees, sing-alongs and sleep-overs.

CNN (Communist News Network) has already started bashing her.

I've got to admit that she's fairly impressive.  I didn't know much about her, but after reading and watching various things on the intrawebs, she might just be the secret weapon that McCain needs.  The next few months will be interesting.  I hope that she prove's to be the bulldog that she appears to be.

By the way, I just caught McCain's little tag line message, Country First.  It really hasn't received much recognition, and I haven't even paid any attention to it until now.  You have to admit; it's a lot stronger than what we've been hearing out of the Democrats.  The Democrats always seem to be about "me, me, me", "I want more" and "what do I get", and this is a direct attack on that.  You could argue that the concepts of "Change" and "Hope" are essentially the same, but in reality, they're just representative of the worthless feelings and emotions that appeal to Liberalism.

Just watched her speech and she seems pretty impressive.  I think the Obamaites are a little stunned, they were supposed to have a campaign spokesman on Fox to comment on the speech and he didn't even show up.

Impressive, yes, even in 1984 as a beauty queen:





And her eldest daughter ain't half bad either (on the far right)



But anyway, back to the politics, and the US making history of either electing the first woman to the Vice Presidency, or the first "African American" to the presidency...yadayadayada.

As stated on the concourse:  We need to add this woman to the tag or bag tourney.  Pretty hot if you ask me!

Her oldest son leaves for Iraq on September 11th.  Her newest child is 5 mos old and has Down's Syndrome.

No - I think both of those items reflect her political views.  She is pro-life (pregnancy termination was never an option even tho they knew before the baby was born that it had problems).  She will be supportive of the military.

She is also an avid hunter and a lifelong NRA member.
