Has everyone noticed that Sen. McCain cannot campaign on his own. He depends on "friends" and "handlers" -- it used to be Sen. Liebermann, Sen. Lindsey Graham and Dr. Phil Gramm (the now-discredited economist) who were at his side, whispered in his ear and turned him the right way. Sen. McCain desperately wanted to travel with Sen. Obama to town hall meetings, and has remained bitter that Sen. Obama declined. Now it's Gov. Palin -- it would appear that Sen. McCain just can't handle it on his own...maybe he has a hearing problem, maybe he needs other people to show him the way, maybe he is a very lonely person. In any event, we need a president who can stand on his own and face the music on his own. This is also a way of keeping Gov. Palin at hand, to refute her "misstatements" and keep her from going off on tangents that might be harmful to McCain's candidacy. Normally, two people campaigning independently would bring twice as much attention to the party and cover twice as much ground.

Gee, they'll have to come up with a couple more speeches, huh?

I suggest a contest.

The first person to report McCain or Palin actually presenting a CONCRETE PLAN....NOT PLATITUDES....ON THE ECONOMY OR THE WAR wins a Sarah Palin doll!!!

I have not heard ONE plan...not ONE.

I guess if you're a republican, acting like celebrities is okay. I guess if you're a republican it's alright to stop talking about the economy or education, or the war or health care.

I used to think of myself as another independent but McCain's sleaze machine has turned me staunchly partisan and firmly democrat. I now volunteer for Obama/Biden. I never thought I would do something like this, but I just can't suffer the sickening sleazoid tactics McCain and Palin and the rest of their lot offer up.

Am I getting too cynical about politics, or does anyone else think the idea of campaigning together is because Palin can draw a crowd and McCain can't? With maybe a little bit of "we can't really trust Palin on her own much yet" making the idea doubly attractive to McCain campaign?

Of course they have to appear together. It's hard for the puppet (Palin) to be without the puppet master(McAncient). What is wrong with people? Do you not see that it is not about sexism, it's not becaue other not Palintologer women are begrudging of her success. It is because, as a woman who believes in the rights of other women, I can see that she is not for women. She isn't for America. She is for Sarah Palin.

Ca Woman Not For Palin — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:38:01 GMT

The old man cannot attract a crowd unless Palin is standing next to him so of course they want her to be campaigning with him! The other reason is her lack of knowledge on the issues as well as his positions. This duo is a farce and the way they are running their campaign is insulting to anyone with a modicum of intelligence. Remember women they are anti-choice and are the total opposite of Hilary Clinton.

Jenny, Des Moines — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:38:05 GMT

I would suppose that the real reason they are compaigning together is that a)the public doesn't like McCain, they like Palin and b)Palin doesn't know much.

I would guess this means that McCain is going to abandon the town hall formats that he loves so much. And go to a stump speech that includes falsehoods about that stupid bridge.

The god-awful part about it is that it just might work. I will lose all hope in this country if the American people elect those two morons.

True women are awaking and being heard — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:39:24 GMT

No matter how this election turns out a couple of things are very clear.......the incredible female support for Palin has exposed the lie of liberal feminists that they, and only they, speak and represent women. Conservative women, whether working outside the home or housewives, whether married or single, are coming out in droves to make their voices heard. They are women who embrace feminity and show it by loving God, loving family, embracing marriage, loving country, and loving life rather than wanting it terminated when it's not convenient. How different from the mocking of God, devaluing of family and marriage, and hatred of men that is the cry of the radical feminist left.

This is what's behind so much of the hatred of Sarah Palin. May true women continue to arise and lift their voices to expose the false feminism of the left.

This is good news-- apparently in 2006 Sarah Palin requested a "stand in" for a debate. Doesn't not bode well for her in the VP debate.

Also, why does John McCain stand behind her twirling his wedding ring. I have never seen him do that before, but whenever he is around Palin, that ring is spinning.
