John McCain picking Sarah Palin was a bad move!

SHUT UP AND STOP INSULTING ME! I'm not a little girl, I'm very intelligent, and I'm not bitching. I'm stating my opinion. you are the one ranting and yelling over a debate, you have no manners, and you are very rude. So if your tactic to winning debates is pitching a fit, cursing, and insulting, then you seriously need to rethink your strategy because it sucks. At the time I wrote the argument, Obama was ahead in the polls. And right now, McCain is up, the convention bounce. Obama lived in Indonesia during his older years, so he has experienced the culture. Where has sarah Palin been? To KUWAIT on a base to visit troops. If russia invaded Alaska, all sarah palin could do is give them oil as a peace offering. She has no history of INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS experience AT ALL. And no matter how much you want to argue that because she lives in alaska and was Governor for half a term she all of a sudden has this experience, she doesn't. Maybe later on if she went up the political ladder, but not right now. Yes. She dealt with the ANWR, and that shows her understanding of oil, but that's all it shows. Show me where she dealt with foreign policy, cold hard facts where she resolves a conflict with another country. And I'm not talking about visiting the troops in KUWAIT. People like me? I'm sorry, but when did this debate become a game of personal attacks? Grow up! Quite bashing your opponent personally and stick to the facts! Palin came out of nowhere, and one of the MAIN reasons he picked her is BECAUSE he wants to tap into ANWR, so what better way to do that then elect the governor of ALASKA to the VP ticket?! Also, it was a smart strategical move...Clinton is out, so elect a woman to attract those Hilary supporters. And she also made reference to the "18 million cracks in the glass ceiling", now TELL ME she's not trying to win over Hilary voters as a woman! Smart strategical move, bad move for the country. Veterans and troops didn't already have his vote! He did in the beginning, but according to a current poll, more military are favoring OBAMA. More and more are turning towards Obama, so get your facts straight! So the majority of the troops aren't supporting him, and that tells me something right there. And yes, Palin will get votes based on her looks. But the rest of the demographic you describe are REPUBLICANS! =o Big shocker there! McCain winning over REPUBLICANS?! Are you serious?!?!?!? I have tons of room to talk about McCain, and I do it quite often actually. But the number 2 on his ticket is just ANOTHER bad move on his part. Great PR move, bad move for the future. 143 DAYS!? Where are you getting this?! Obama served on the Illinois state senate for 7 YEARS, and the US Senate for 4 YEARS. That's 11 YEARS. That's roughly 4,015 days, not 143 days. Again, get your facts straight. He also served in the US Senate FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE, so he has dealt with other countries before. Again, Palin served for 3 years as Mayor and half a term as governor. Both on a state level, not national, and hardly dealing with other countries and the politics of Washington. As far as dealing with Al-Queda is concerned, they wouldn't listen to her anyways because she's a woman. And OBAMA DOES HAVE MORE FOREIGN EXPERIENCE THAN PALIN. He does, and you can come with all this crap like "she lives in Alaska so she deals with international trade and conflicts everyday." HARDLY! Okay, even if she DID deal with it, that's not national. that's state. Obama served in the senate, both state and US, for an accumulative 11 years, he has much more experience with dealing with foreign affairs than she does! Besides the fact that McCain is old, he's just like Bush, but that's not the topic we are discussing. I have lots of reasons to vote for Obama besides the fact that McCain is old. But it does make a difference in terms of his VP, because she has a greater chance of assuming office. And that scares me. You've been to my high school?! When? And so what if you have, what relevance to this argument does that have?! Choosing Palin has boosted his PR. But you are making this into an argument of whether Palin was a good move for McCain's PR or not, and it most definitely is. But this argument was intended to be that while palin was a good PR move, it sucks for the country if she becomes president. But you were too busy ranting to realize that. Since this is my last round, I'll close with this. 1. My opponent needs to grow up and stick with the facts instead of getting personal. 2. Palin was a brilliant move on McCain's part PR wise, he snatched the Hilary supporters and got a portion of the ignorant youth who will vote for her because she is "hot". 3.But in terms of experience and her benefit for this country, it was a bad move. She has wonderful experience with oil, and in that aspect she is a good pick. She dealt with ANWR, and can get us to tap into it for oil. But she has only dealt with things on a state level. Not nationally. And that is a scary thought. You can't even start to compare Biden and Palin, because it isn't fair. Biden has been in the US senate for YEARS. And palin only has been governor and mayor.
