...McCain thinks that, merely because Governor Palin is a woman, I will support their ticket, he must think all women are stupid and uninformed. I was very offended by her derogatory remarks about Senator Obama's community work in Chicago. Many people and churches devote a lot of time and energy, do a lot of good work, and make changes for the betterment of their communities and for those less fortunate than Governor Palin. Her snark and cynicism proves that the GOP's talk of values is a meaningless farce. Extremist and opportunist, her beliefs are out of step with...

...same misery from "McPalin"? Palin is so extreme in her views that she may as well be a mullah in a dress. Her utter lack of political nous and international knowledge is shameful. This country will be the world's laughing stock if this sort of Republican ticket makes it to the Oval Office. McCain picking Palin is a big insult to the electorate and to intelligent women everywhere. The first criterion to gauge a candidate's readiness for the presidency is his judgment. And McCain has failed this test pretty badly. No matter how the GOP spinmeisters pad Palin...

...year-old retiree and single parent who raised a child in the 1970s while working full-time on my career, I am haunted by my roads not taken. This article expresses why I won't be voting in this election. I can't vote for the McCain-Palin ticket in good conscience, due to their stand on issues that are dear to me, but I can't vote against either. Too many sacrifices have had to be made by women for me to take a hand in keeping the first woman from holding the second highest national office. Gibbs...

...sells big, and politicians know few things better than devising and repeating popular messages. I guess it can’t hurt to be attentive to the news before a major change in leadership in this country. But part of me is sure I should have bought the early ticket to Maine, and skipped out on the charade...
