Which vice presidential candidate has helped the ticket the most?
Obama's vp choice was announced in the middle of the night after a day full of media speculation. McCain announced his vp the day after Obama gave his acceptance speech; steeling the spotlight of media attention. McCain unarguably had the better timing. Biden was an expected pick; not very exciting. Palin was a historical pick that the media is still buzzing about. Again, McCain's pick wins the media spotlight. Palin also helps McCain pander to disgruntled Hilarry supporters, another big bonus after a week that was supposed to reconcile the party at the national convention. Overall, I believe McCain will win more voters with his vp choice.
I have already mentioned in an earlier post that my posisition is vp choices should be chosen to help the nation; not to win an election. I, as an Obama supporter, am hopeful the nation will eventual see why Palin was chosen; to pander and receive votes. Obama has lost all momentum and I hope the debates are going to be a turning point in this presidential race.

I am new to the blogger world, and an independent, but am moved to comment on the overt bias of the leftist media. They are currently tearing Govenor Palin down, this is what they had to say about her 11 months ago.....

I think Palin has been showing that she is just on the ticket to be a woman. She refuses to speak with the media and the cloud of doubt over her head just grows and grows.
ReplyDeleteI think the Vice Presidential debate will be a turning point in the election. If Sen Biden makes sure that he does not come off as being above her I think he will fair very well. Only time will tell and I for one will be excited to see what happens.

ReplyDeleteI don't think this article means anything. You cannot site one article and say the leftist media was on her side. You may be angry with the skepticism of the citizens of this country, but I think it is necessary in order for the voters to know who she truly is. For some reason I believe she is more than a hockey mom from Wasilla and I'd like to know more.
Oh come on, Palin was politically motivated and Biden wasn't. That's laughable. The ONLY reason Biden is there is because of Obama's real as well as perceived inexperience, especially in foreign affairs. To help the nation,,, come on now. Little naive don't you think
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, your argument makes no sense because even if Obama picked him for experience that is still political motivation. Second, what does Palin even bring to the ticket? It is obvious she was picked to pander to disgruntled Hillary supporters and independent women.
