Default Palin Out in Less than 48 Hours

Here is my prediction, Sarah Palin will bow out of running as McCain's Vice President within 48 hours citing newly discovered family responsibilities.

You fellas are getting more and more nervous.

Maybe you can organize a write in campaign for Hillary.

How so, either Romney or Lieberman would be a better choice and and create a much more electable team. Americans forget very quickly and November is far away, now if this were October already you Repugs would be toast for sure. Timing is everything.

If Palin stubbornly remains the VP choice with the incessant barrage of negative media coverage she is bound to receive throughout the rest of the election process, what chance does the McCain/Palin ticket really have?

How will the Republicans be able to get their message out if they constantly have to stop to field questions concerning Pailn's past, family and ability to lead? Sarah can we get to know & trust you in the little time left? Doubtful, Romney & Lieberman are already known quantities, this poor choice in a running mate will haunt McCain till November and end up becoming his Achilles heel.

McCain's timing of his VP pick was just plain exquisite?

Thanks for recognizing this.

Family issues? Morals? You mean like Hilary has with Bill? or maybe Obama with the Reverend Wright and William Ayers? Lets not forget the two minority constituencies the Dems rely on for votes, (African and Latino Americans). Think any of those voters have had children out of wed lock and or under the age of 18?

The Dems will do NOTHING! They're in a glass house! They can't throw rocks!

I understand that, and on the day after Obama's speech it looked like you guys pulled off a brilliant coup. Furthermore at that time the job ahead appeared to be a simple swamp draining, but just a few days later it appears the McCain/Palin ticket is up to their elbows in alligators and mired knee deep in a controversy that they can't extricate themselves from.

It appears that Maverick decisions have a high variance and create random outcomes, good luck with that cowboy.

You're dreaming again Joe.

But let's see what the next few days brings.

I think Americans will like her.

None of the above is running for public office, and therein lies the difference.

The two groups above ,know more than anyone the failure of teaching abstinence as the solution.

Perhaps Sarah should have taught that girl to use condoms instead.

The difference of course is that these are all known quantities, Sarah Palin is a mystery wrapped in an enigma and has not yet been vetted by the press. Until Palin is vetted and accepted sins & all The McCain Straight-Talk Express will be spending a inordinate amount of time defending her to the public instead of sharing their message.

Sarah Palin's daughter isn't running for office either....

I'll bet you $1 McCain is the next President with Mrs. Palin in tow...
