(Yes, I'm twisting it back.)
The truth of the matter is the majority of the people are going to vote off of who's in the party they support regardless of how unfit they are for the job. They'll find every reason to defend their canadate and bash the others even if they share in the same downfalls. Most "democrats" and "republicans" are guilty of this.
I think that palin's a cool person with a cool story, but I really think Mccain picked her for all the wrong reasons. It just makes a bigger joke of what this whole election is. If Obama and Mccain are the only two people left fit to be president, then this country is pretty sad right now.

I agree with most of what you you say here. I'm not a fan of the Palin pick either, but the way that the media has lost its mind over her pick, when Obama barely has more experience than her, is just an example of how rediculous the media is. I agree, the Republicans went after Obama's ionexperience, but the media never did or never did with much care or vigor, and just the opposite is true for the Palin nomination. Also, how they have dug up and attacked her family is beyond the norm, especially considering the most they've done as a public face for the campaign was stand next to her on stage.
Dyflon, Germ and Jason, you can hoot and howl all you like about claims of media bias, but a spade is a spade. No amount of jokes or mocking can erase the OBVIOUS bias that the media has shown since the Palin pick. That doesn't mean that I am defending her pick, it just means I'm pointing out the obvious. At some point you'll have to look at a situation and recognize it for what it is.
The problem with how the left is reacting to this, is that its working for McCain. The more the Palin pick receives such hollywood and media backlash, the more they alientate the country from the cause, and point out Obama's own inexperience and the fact that he is the PRESIDENTIAL candiate with little experience, and not the VP candidate and thats a big difference.
In the end, if they continue with such wolfpack tactics, this is going to be 2004 all over again: The Republicans will win and the Democata will be left scratching their heads, wondering how the hell they lost.
