It's not because she's a woman (sorry PUMA PAC), it's becuase she is clearly an idiot that we don't like her.  As if she needed to keep proving what an embarrassment it would have been if she was VP, she continues to give us evidence:  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/27676137#27676137

Eight years of dummy in the white house was enough, we didn't need to put someone there who makes GWB look smart by comparison.

Please, please let her 15 minutes be up now.  On second thought, if this is the future of the Repbulican party and their best hope for 2012, then more power to her.

Those of us with at least half a brain will just continue to cringe every time she opens her mouth.

Gregwardo The man who my father once called a "circumference S.O.B." (you can walk all the way around him, and any way you look, he's still a sonofabitch) - Bob Novak - is laying the groundwork for the McCain campaign to go as negative as they want: http://www.spectator.org/dsp_article.asp?art_id=14008 You see? Our FOUNDING FATHERS campaigned reprehensibly in 1800, so it would be Un-American to do otherwise! For anyone paying attention, the phenomenon of negative campaigning is not new. But it's funny that Bob Novak thinks now is the time - as the McCain/Palin camp gets desperate and declares that they've got no choice but to go even more negative - to point out that it's perfectly fine, nay, patriotic, to drag a campaign completely into the ditch. I've been for Barack since I heard the 2004 Democratic convention speech and then heard Al Franken compare it to the Republican speech. I was again reminded of why I support him after Super Tuesday when Hillary's speech was full of vitriol and venom, while Barack talked about uniting us. The reason that this election feels like a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence? Because it is. I'm (barely) too young to remember what is was like when Jack Kennedy was elected, but I think I'm starting to get the idea. So, yeah Bob, the 1800 campaign was nasty, and so was every once since. That doesn't make it OK. We're sick of the lying, the hate, the venom, the dirty tricks. We want a leader, and we think we've found him.
