Its pretty funny how people seem to think Palin destroyed any chance of McCain getting into the Whitehouse.
Since when is McCain getting into the Whitehouse decided by who his VP candidate is?
If it were, Obama wouldn't be President because Biden is a moron too and has a long history of sticking his foot into his mouth.
Simply put, Palin was a poor candidate. Very inexperienced in big-league politics. Take anyone like that and put them in her place as the VP candidate and chances are they'd screw up too. McCain screwed up big time with the selection. But then again he was a poor candidate to begin with so picking an even poorer VP made it even worse.
And yet, I predicted months before the election happened that he would pick Palin. It was all about the female, good looking and young angle. Trying in a way to offset Obama.
Because there were a lot of people voting in this election simply on who looked the best and who made the best speech. McCain was old. He had no appeal with those voters. Palin was supposed too. Too bad she isn't the smartest politician in the world.
Fox News is smart though. They may be biased, and they love to sensationalize the news(like a lot of of other channels).....but they're running away in the ratings race. Palin is going to keep pushing those ratings higher.
