Title: McCain.... on his former vp pick.
Post by: clips on December 15, 2008, 10:49:43 AM
And now he states that he wouldn\'t support her if she ran for the presidency....:rolleyes:..but during the campaign she was the greatest thing since sliced bread......thank the "LAWD" this guy didn\'t become the prez,..this just proves he picked her to strickly get hillary supporters,...and now(Giga/Kennedy) you guys know why we questioned this man\'s judgement.

His presidency would\'ve been a disaster and a joke, both of them would\'ve been running around the white house lookin\' like a couple of chickens with their heads cut off.

Didn\'t McCain said that the American people had elected Barack Obama as the next president, and so Barack Obama would be his president after the results night revealed that Barack is winning early last month?  He also said that we need to figure out a way to unite this Country together and fix the economy and the wars.

Maybe he knew that rarely a candidate of the same party would get elected 3 terms in a row, so he picked Sarah Palin as his vp candidate just for the fun factor of it?

I dont think he meant it as a slight. He said there are many young gov.s out there that could make a run in 12 and it was way to early to make a choice.

I\'m good....it\'s just that this chick was a click away from bein the president, and at the time he was convinced that she was thee best candidate for vp, now he\'s changed his tune and backed off from that notion a bit.

This could very well be true...but he vigorously challenged anybody for his picking of palin at the time, and i guess he had to, but here it just seems like he\'s dumping her completely. After the election was over Palin was criticizing everybody from McCains camp,...she even criticized and took some shots at McCain over some of the campaign strategies.

 So i don\'t think McCain is just going to outright diss her, but i think he might have some resentment towards her....seriously, she was puttin\' everybody on blast when she was in the media for that short time after the election.

Can Obama please do something first before we crown him the greatest thing since sliced bread.  How do you know he\'s a better President than McCain?  You don\'t yet.

All he\'s done is picked some advisors...

Public speaking does not equal great president.

You were already saying he\'d fuck up the country if he\'d been elected.

Keep up, clips.

I say Obama will do worse.

He could very well muck up tha joint, but i don\'t see that happening, he\'s being incredibly smart about the folks he\'s been filling in critical positions to repair the economy. In truth he can only do so much to stop the bleeding,...for the most part the economy will have to come back on it\'s own.

On McCain:...yeah the election is over...but McCain clearly was not thinking about the country when he picked palin, and now when the campaign is over, he\'s not even giving her a second thought for the reasons i posted earlier....disaster might\'ve been a bit of an exaggeration, but my main point was that mccain himself knew and felt that palin was not the best vp candidate when he chose her....there\'s no way palin would\'ve been ready to take over if mccain croaked.

Obama was Senator for like 180 days and then ran for election.

Then he got old school Washington politicians into his administration. What change?

Palin is annoying.....and it was amazing at how some people actually believed she was ready and was a legit pick, mccain in that clip, is indirectly in a way saying that he knew she was not the best candidate for the job....so just imagine how mccain might\'ve been as prez, instead of governing in the best possible way for the country, he would\'ve governed in a way that was symbolic of his vp choice.

Yup, desperate times calls for desperate measures,...he\'s hiring the best of the best to tackle the economy head on, and if that means hiring a bunch of old relics that are proven vets of the game, then i have no problemo with that.

He\'s right ya\'ll..listen to luckee..i don\'t know why gman and kennedy continue to drag out this political drama....:D....but yeah in all honesty we should end this.....i just jumped on that clip because imo i just felt mccain distanced himself from her after practically stating that nobody else at the time was more qualified than her.

gman,kennedy....see you in 2012.....BIATCH!....:highfive:...;)

Honestly, I don\'t think McCain wanted Palin. I bet there is so much pressure from the party to pick who they want picked and who will reflect the party (though their judgment sucked I think). He probably wanted someone in line with how he believes but if he chose a moderate VP or someone that doesn\'t really go with the party, he would have lost support. He was probably stuck between a rock and a hard place. Just my opinion though.

Thats the thing, I think McCain would have won if he would have run his campaign from day one instead of everyone else doing it. How many times was he on air answeing a question w ith "Ill talk to my staff and they will get back to you" shit.
