I don't think it was for self profit. Banking is a big industry for Delaware. The industry employ a lot of people.

It appears that the religious right think highly of McCain's choice. Probably the only choice that he could have made if he wanted to bring home that wing of his party.

I don't see that her addition changes things very much. She agrees with McCain so she isn't a change just more of the same on all the issues.

Our talking points.

Governor Palin shares John McCain's commitment to overturning Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush's failed economic policies -- that's not the change we need, it's just more of the same."

The rest doesn't make a difference. She thinks the same as McCain.

I am beginning to understand why a huge chuck of America is registering as independents. This crap is starting to get disgusting. I'm beginning to realize that they have been prepared to sabotage the partyall along.

oh come on. we've constantly downplayed the rift stuff and pushed back against it. but rendell's comments are clearly newsworthy.

Why did you downplay it? I thought the MSM was overplaying it. It is truly sad if the Clinton's and their allies are willing to risk this election.

If we lose this election because of party infighting this will be the last year we will come close to getting a Democratic President for a long time or ever. This will fracture the party. Rendell, Bill, and Hillary would have the party wonder in the wilderness for the next 20 years because they can't accept the fact that Obama won the nomination.

I cannot believe we are letting the networks along with the GOP trash our convention. Who gives a crap what the GOP think of our Vice Presidential pick? Why are we listening to GOP pundits give commentary about our affairs? Shut up already.

Hillary lost because she did not run a good campaign. It was hers to lose and it is about time they realize it is not everyone else's fault.

Stop freaking over the Polls. Watch the convention on CSPAN. You get to hear all the speakers and entertainment and you don't have to listen to the bad anlysis by the pundits.

I think the Hillary people will come around after the convention. This is their last protest.

Impossible for most people. Biden will do just fine.

What's missing is Hillary's McCain critique. So far she has had far more negative things to say about her own party's candidate than about the opposition. We'll see what happens in the future.
