Mccain's Fatalistic Flawed Judgement kindda helped Obama become the President of U.S.A
Ii shall be an understatement of the century if I said I could foresee Mccain's fatal hubris wen he chose Palin as his running mate and before wen he would put dignity to shame wen he would appalingly take picks too crude ones at dear Old Obama the epitome of dignity,righteousness Obama.Sorry to be writing the obituary before the patient has expired, but the pick of Sarah Palin was fatal to John McCain's campaign, and he should have seen it coming.But cant blame him he's already 72 and dont expect rational behaviour or choices from him wen he presumed or cud see his ship sinking,had to to take the world by surprise or shock better to put it this way so that his eccentricities add upto his ''Maverick'' title to the T.
Remember, McCain was finally gaining some traction in his campaign by derisively calling Barack Obama a "celebrity" and questioning his readiness to lead the nation.
So who does he pick for a running mate? A folksy mother of five who draws big crowds but
knows little about the U.S. government or world affairs.
I guess McCain was enamoured with the idea of a team of mavericks, but Palin's maverick credentials were inflated. She never really said "thanks but no thanks" to that Bridge to Nowhere, for instance.
Palin did irreparable damage to McCain's credibility. The strange thing is, her political future appears set to soar, even as she sunk McCain's.

But because the market collapsed the media focus on Palin and McCain's obvious weakness which is economic policy. The media painted them as a couple of bumbling idiots who were the reason for the market crash. Then McCain made the retarded error of suspending his campaign to head back and make a deal...a plan that would have worked better with a congress that was lead by republicans.
Of course the media didn't focus on the fact that Obama and Biden had no cure for the economy or that their policy proposal dooms everyone. No they were silent and thus made to look far more presidential.
In the end, Palin would be a massive rockstar had the economic issue not have happened.
It did...and the republicans have suffered. But if you think she is going away and wont be seen again you are are as stupid as you come across.
My prediction is Stevens wins re-election. Gets sent to prison and resigns. Palin appoints herself Senator to "go clean up washington" and in 4-8 years comes back at this with more experience in the Senate than Obama.
Her negatives have continued to rise to where she is now viewed negatively by over 50% of the voters.
The only people who have gotten excited over her are the Republican base made up of the one or two issue wingnuts.
She was supposed to attract disaffected Hillary voters. Ha! Not bloody likely.
She is going to rip the Republican Party apart, just like she tried to do with America.
Not to mention the fact that the woman doesn't even have a firm grasp of basic civics principles!
I can envision her as a news reader on Fox. She is definitely effective as a right-wing propagandist when she sticks to a script, but she reached her political zenith as governor of Alaska. In fact, she's a little out of her league in THAT job!
Oh, and she LIES, too. A lot! A WHOLE lot! She's told many, many blatant lies and is extremely dishonest. THAT is the main problem with Sarah Palin!!
Bon Voyage.
Polls confirm the distaste for Palin.
While the "base" has embraced Palin, "thinking" Republicans, Independents, and Democrats alike have obviously rejected McCain's irresponsible choice.
"The American people have spoken, and they have spoken clearly." - John McCain
America's final "hail Mary" pass on Palin: We're going long on sending her back to Alaska!
Godspeed.
I have to believe that picking her was the ultimate act of Masochism of the Republican party, and the biggest insult to the American people since they elected Geo. Bush.
I realize our country is sick right now, but I didn't know so many have also lost their minds
