I'm sure no doubt this has been repeated before and before in Other Diaries, but rather then attack Sarah Palin and possibly get accused by the media of Blatant Sexism, I believe we need to turn this into an attack on McCain's Judgment My Reasonings
As has been reported multiple timesreported John McCain has only met with his Running Mate once or twice, This is extremely poor judgment on the part of Senator McCain, why would he select somebody who he only just recently met? It makes absolutely no sense and of course with McCain it just doesn't. That in itself should show you all that this was a poorly thought out decision, not only that it seems to me John McCain really did not vet this woman at all.
As everyone is no doubt aware this is a woman who is currently embroiled in a scandal involving the firing of Police Commissioner Walt Monegan who refused to fire her Brother-in-Law Mike Wooten, Now granted Mike Wooten is a very shady character but nonetheless, John McCain went out and said he wanted to bring a Reformer to Washington D.C., but how can he make that claim when this is someone who is under investigation for possible corruption. Not only that this is somebody who doesn't even know what a V.P. does.
The Palin pick makes me sick. Yes, I rhymed. But seriously, it really makes me physically ill even more so then a Romney or a Pawlenty because those would have been generic picks. The reason I am sickened is that John McCain completely insulted the intelligence of every woman in America. Does he honestly think that Women are going to vote for someone just because Palin's a woman? Absolutely Not! John McCain has completely blown it, he had a chance to make a strong definitive pick, as much as I hate Romney he would have been a stronger choice then Palin. What's even worse is that with McCain's health record, Palin has a more then likely shot of becoming President. Can you imagine Sarah Palin sitting down with Foreign Dignitaries from other countries? They would laugh at her. Not that she's going to sit down with Ahmadinejad but come on, the brutal dictators of the world will not take someone like her seriously.
