That's the only real job of the VP, to step in if the president dies or is incapacitated.<BR/><BR/>For 8 months McCain has said Obama's 4 years in the Senate and 8 years in Illinois state government isn't enough to be president. But Palin, who has been governor of one of the smallest states for less than two years and mayor of a town of 6,000 before that, is ready to lead? Give me a break.<BR/><BR/>McCain just took "experience" off the table.Vox Populihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174941325997674801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-80981207336659254422008-08-29T15:02:00.000-05:002008-08-29T15:02:00.000-05:00"She is supposed to be ready to step in the president's office if something happens to McCain.

And she defeated the incumbent governor in the primary and ex-governor in the general.<BR/><BR/>Let's see, Barry gets his Democrat opponents disqualified and ran for the Senate against Alan Keyes.<BR/><BR/>I'm willing to bet she's not hanging out with like Bill Ayers.<BR/><BR/>And I'm assuming since she gave birth to a baby with disabilities, determining when life begins isn't above her pay grade.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12806967747529139507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-7958387866736940172008-08-29T10:20:00.000-05:002008-08-29T10:20:00.000-05:00Vox,<BR/><BR/>Palin is running for VP not President.

After all, McCain would be saying she is qualified to be president. Right?<BR/><BR/>Not to mention she has a corruption probe underway right now. But she is young and pretty and unknown!Vox Populihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174941325997674801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-74091881804962798722008-08-29T08:28:00.000-05:002008-08-29T08:28:00.000-05:00Drudge had Bayh pegged to be Obama's Veep, so I'm not believing it until I see it. I think (correct me if I'm wrong) this would mark the first time an Alaskan elected official is a VP or Presidential candidate...that's pretty cool.<BR/><BR/>Your buddy Obama is opposed to gay marriage too, Wilson.
