The Woman Who Beat McCain's VP

John McCain's VP Governor Sarah Palin hasn't lost the election yet, but she did lose the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant to Maryline Blackburn, coming in second.

According to her website, Maryline "is a singer with a wide spectrum of performing experiences." Maybe she'll perform at the RNC in St. Paul on Monday.

80. As a woman and former republican, I am personally offended at this most unqualified choice for VP. A woman who is best known for her fight against the federal government to destroy our planet. If she thinks we need oil now, how does she think it is going to look for us in 25 or 50 years? It seems such a careless ploy to turn women voters McCains way. This man is mocking women

81. It doesn't matter what any poser here will say. The Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain with The Republican Vice-Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin are the favored and winning choices for The Presidency and The Vice Presidency over anyone serving with, involved with and connected to Obama. Nothing lesser is happening, and this comes as a surprise to no one.

82. Polar Bear,

so you know the woman by simply looking at her photo? You jackass!!! Have you ever been to that "pristine" and 'vulnerable' little place in the deep dark corner of Alaska known as "ANWAR". It's a god forsaken place that has little or no wildlife to speak of. We're talking about an area the size of San Francisco. It's a bearen waste land that needs to be drilled now!!!!!! Or would you rather continue to pay those peace loving arabs close to a trillion dollars a year for the oil that we need. We will eventually find a more efficient way to power our vehicles but until then, we need drill domestically. You are the knuckle draggin fool!

84. I find it hilarious that most of the dumb ass HIllary supporters who are falling for this, can't correctly spell SARAH PALIN besides it being the main headline. Her name is not Sara Palvin. And if McCain dies I feel for our country under this womans leadership. No Experience. Just a pretty face.

OBAMA 08

89.

Let's see now... John McCain was always known as a maverick senator, a Republican known for his bi-partisanship and willingness to compromise to further important issues. He is known as a moderate Republican. Now, John McCain, in his quest for POTUS, chooses this relative unknown running mate - female, young, pretty, a former beauty pageant 1st runner-up and - surprise! - a heavily-right wing conservative who's absolutely against abortion, is all for corporate interests, hates environmentalists, has been a governor for two whole years for the State of Alaska, and before that the mayor of a very (VERY!) small town (Wasilla, AK - population: approx. 9,000). She has 5 children - the youngest, at four months of age born with Downs Syndrome. When will John McCain stop pandering to the right wing of the Republican party?

Female: Check - will draw in Hillary supporters.
Pretty: Check - will draw in any man with a banana in his pants
Conservative: Check - shes' a tough-talking social conservative, rigidly so - might even give Rush a woody...
Qualifications: Check - severely lacking in this area, the better for John McCain to over-rule and steamroll over her
Married, with children: Check - the rich never raise their own children - same stuff, different day...

Yep, the PERFECT running mate for John McCain and the Republican party!

90. TMZ, Ask the quesion: Were you for Hilliary and now who will you vote for?
I was for Hillary. I will now vote McCain.
1. Obama has been a senator for 3 years and most of those 3 years he's been out running for President not gaining experience..
2. Palin has held an office for MANY years. She gave gays rights in AK although she does not agree with gay marriage, she did not deny rights for gays in her state. That shows me she is a believer in equality.
3. Obama will turn his back on women and gays just like he tossed Hillary aside.
4. Obama will raise taxes and bankrupt America.
