The Sarah Palin Thread.

Sarah Palin has turned politics into a big soup opera. This is better than anything Days of Our Lives could ever throw at us.

Mother hides teens pregnancy, fakes her own. Mother actually was pregnant, but teen is pregnant too. Did she have an affair with her husband's friend? Tries to fire ex-brother in law, but his boss declines. Fires his boss instead.

Indeed... I'm an outsider in all of this, but I have to wonder whether McCain really knew about all of this stuff.

The key questions are:

1- Does Sarah Palin bring enough positive things to his campaign to counter all this crap? It doesn't seem so... The "she has executive experience" argument only goes so far...

2- Do you think this woman is capable of being the president? If she goes on a diplomatic mission, would that be the first time she travels outside the US? She'd be one step away from the presidency, and not a terribly big step since McCain isn't exactly the most athletic of candidates.

To me, McCain's decision seems almost like giving up. If I'm wrong and they win, I think we're in for an hilariously bad 4 years.
