Hey McCain, was choosing that brainless idiot for VEEP the right thing? YES or NO !!!!!??????

10. You're missing the point. This is about McCain's judgement. Palin was a rotten choice, period.

No one is saying that Palin solely caused McCain to lose, and no one is saying Obama didn't win it on his own merits. Obama would most likely have won regardless of Palin. However, you choose a VP candidate based on experience and credentials. It is THE most important decision a Presidential candidate makes. McCain went with his advisers who chose Palin because they wanted a game changer who could win over women and gin up the base. She was not properly vetted, was grossly unprepared, and a rotten choice. The buck stops with McCain. He CHOSE her. Alaska is a red state and she apparently had some folksy credentials and got in up in that state small in population. Who knows why they elected her governor up there. She is none too bright by any means and only got her media entertainment jobs because she got some notoriety as the VP candidate and because there are some people frankly numb enough to buy into her idiocy. It is like asking how Limbaugh became a millionaire. He saw a numb audience and got in with them. They buy into his bullshit and send him money. Same as any snake oil salesman. Pray on the ignorant. McCain used rotten judgement. Period.
