The biggest epicenter of outrage MUST be the Clinton residence. If Obama gets elected, Hillary will not be the candidate in 2012. If McCain is elected, for one reason or another, he is very likely to be a one-term president. In all likelihood, Palin would then run, essentially as the incumbent. Hillary's biggest selling point, her gender, would be negated.

I'd love to own the drywall company or lamp store nearest the Clinton residence about now.
You know you make a great point here. I did notice a lot of Republican pundits were overjoyed when Obama picked Biden as his VP. They all said how Biden brought a great wealth of knowledge to Obama's side, but in the past he has said many things that can and will come back to bite him in his ass. I don't think anyone can doubt how immense and ego he has, and I guess everyone is hoping for him to have more of his infamous slips of the tongue.

The first thing I noticed after Palin was announced was CNN reporting the Obama camp reporting on "how poor a choice Palin was." Is it perhaps they feel that more Clinton supporters will erode to McCain or the fact that they're afraid what a great strategy that pick was?

I was reading an opinion piece on CNN and someone mentioned a good points about Palin. They said when she would debate Biden, Biden can be portrayed as a bully beating on a mother of five if he conducts his debates as he's known for. Is this fair? No, but it's going to happen.
