Peggy Noonan says I am gallant. I think I like that better than being a chauvinist.

And,
for those really interested in equal pay for equal work for woman, Republican administrations have a better record than Democratic administrations. Perhaps policies promoting entrepreneurship and real economic growth is what will really solve the problem.

Earmarks requested by the State of Alaska (pdf...the source doc from the State of Alaska website)
...or might it reasonably be viewed by some as "empty political rhetoric" on the part of McCain. |
McCain's banter on earmarks is empty political rhetoric. It won't impact the lives of 99.999% of Americans.

as for my thoughts: i've seen better interviews for highschool president. seriously, at one point " Pressed about what insights into recent Russian actions she gained by living in Alaska, Palin answered: "They're our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska."...personally, i live next door to a dentist....is anyone willing to let me give them a root canal...
seriously, does that mean every texan has experience bc of proximity to mexico. north dakota bc of proximity to canada? I'm surprised she didn't claim canada AND russia as her credentials.

Look at it this way:
Palin without doubt or hesitation believes she is qualified and ready to be VP. She is a winner, she has courage, she is confident.
Biden on the otherhand, doesn't think he is as qualified as Clinton to be VP and thinks she may have been a better choice. He did not endorse Obama because of his friendship with Clinton during the primaries.
O.k., I am just going to let you know what I was thinking when I heard Bidden.
Remember this was just in my head:
He has got to be kidding - what a loser. No, he is either lying or he is an idiot - what a loser. If he thinks Clinton would be a better VP why did he accept the role - what a loser? If he really thinks that why would he say it - what a loser! Are people actually buying this false humility? Why was he running for President if he thinks Clinton would be a better VP - what a loser? Does he think Clinton should have been the nominee? So, he did not endorse Obama because he either did not have the courage to tell Clinton or now he is supporting his second or third choice - what a loser!
Forgive me for sharing this, I apologize to losers who may be offended with being connected with bidden.
