Source: ABC News

Gov. Sarah Palin says Sen. Barack Obama just might regret not picking Sen. Hillary Clinton as his vice presidential running mate.

In an exclusive interview with ABC News' Charles Gibson, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says Barack Obama may regret not picking Sen. Hillary Clinton as his vice presidential running mate.

"I think he's regretting not picking her now, I do. What, what determination, and grit, and even grace through some tough shots that were fired her way -- she handled those well," the Alaska governor told Charles Gibson in her third and final exclusive interview with ABC News.

I think we've now opened the door to talking about McCain's decision-making process, don't you?

[TwilightGardener]

1. Oh, you mean the one you called the "whiner", Sarah? Fuck off, bitch.

[billybob537]

13. mebbey Soo

but not as much as McNutberger will regret picking PHalin. Which will be only once, and that will be eternally.

[canetoad]

18. Eternity might not be long

for McCain.

[Pete2069]

33. DId anyone check were the votes went

In the democratic primary election.
What did Biden , Edward and Kucinich receive in total.  10 to
15 percent....
Hillary would have been a good choice for Vice President.  
You let the republicans convince you she wasn't.

Hillary must have received 10 to 20 percent of the women's
vote , that was voting because she was a woman.   They will
vote ,wherever a woman is running , require less of their
qualifications.

[customerserviceguy]

45. I agree

I think the biggest reason that Sen. Obama did not pick Sen. Clinton is that he did not want her to get more press than he did. For some reason, McPain does not seem to mind that Pallid is in the limelight.

Ego sometimes prevents us from seeing the better choice...

[Cha]

54. Your thought process on this is full

of shit. You don't know a fucking thing about Obama.

Epic Stupid Fail.

[chiefofclarinet]

46. WE didn't choose Biden, Obama did

I trust Obama's view on this. He picked the most qualified person that he works well with. I don't deny that Hillary has a good resume and that Obama's relations with her have improved since primary season, but I believe that Biden is very qualified, and Obama and Biden work very well together on the campaign trail.

Once America stops staring at the new, shiny thing (Failin'), Biden will look great. The heavy hitting he does now will get shown, and Sarah Failin' can go back to the Arctic tundra. The VP debate will rock.

Would Hillary have been a good VP? Perhaps. Will Biden be a good VP? I think so. Should we start the "What if..." game with Hillary for VP? NO.

[jmowreader]

63. As a president Hillary would have been fine, but not as a vice-president

OTOH, having Hillary on the Democratic ticket was the GOP wet dream--they've spent over 12 years perfecting their attacks on her.

If there was a "mistake" at all, and I don't think there really was, it was in not choosing a Democratic governor--Kathleen Sebelius or Brian Schweitzer--to eliminate McSame's claim of "executive experience." Since they're pumping up Palin as this huge expert on foreign affairs based on Alaska's proximity to Russia, Schweitzer's 500-mile border with Canada's timber country (there's a BIG dispute about Canadian softwood exports) trumps Palin's "you can kinda see a relatively unpopulated part of Russia from Alaska if you stand in the right place and look really hard" bullshit.

[JerseygirlCT]

66. I think you're absolutely right about Clinton. nt

[Zhade]

72. Considering POLLS SHOWED A MAJORITY OF REGISTERED VOTERS DIDN'T WANT HER ON OBAMA'S TICKET...

...you're wrong.

[speedoo]

2. Yup. Sarah has opened that door!

Palin will end up losing this election for the rethugs.

[Wickerman]

5. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have Molly's take on Palin?

:sigh:

[speedoo]

11. Yeah, it would.

I miss Molly.

[Yavin4]

17. Apply What She Said About Dan Quayle

Pretty is, as pretty does.

[heliarc]

29. I was just thinking that the other day...

Rest easy Molly. We got this one.

[blondie58]

31. yeah, but we have our own Nancy Greggs!

who deserves her own syndicated column so that she may be read by more. Are you listening, Thom Hartmann and David Sirota? This woman is a genius.

[L. Coyote]

61. Would Hillary have responded, "In what regard, Charlie?"

And, Charlie KNOWS what Biden thinks about the Bush Doctrine, so would not even ask him such a softball!

She opened the door to comparing her to Hillary.
Issues and registering voters might be better activities than going there.

Imagine the debate. Biden quayle's her with, "Gov. you are no Hillary. I know Hillary, Hillary is a friend of mine, and Gov. you are no Hillary!"

[peacebird]

3. Sarah trying to seduce HRC supporters, eh? Guess she thinks they only care about candidates GENDER.

[TwilightGardener]

9. Just trying to reignite the primary wars, Operation Chaos, gender wars--Palin's masters told

her to say this, to foster more disunity in the Dem party.

[ima_sinnic]

64. I sooo agree--same w introducing meme that Biden might be "being replaced" by HRC

couldn't believe some stinking talking head on CNN yesterday pointedly saying that this is a "real possibility." sheesh, what fuckwads.

[radfringe]

44. when you vote using reproductive organs instead of brains

you end up with dickheads in office

[Cha]

56. You know what the fuck else she's tryin' to do?

To cause trouble in the ranks, big time. Peal open a healing wound with her shittzel.

[musette_sf]

4. all the Reich Wingers are drooling

over the "Obama shoulda picked Clinton" meme. because that's the candidate they wanted to run against. now Obama is wrong... for NOT picking the VP candidate the Reich Wingers wanted to run against? only in Bizarro World aka Repuke Land.

[Politicalboi]

28. Just like Obama was

Wrong about town hall meetings with MaGoo. If Obama doesn't run his campaign the way MaGoo wants him too he's gonna lose. "My friends, That's not change you can believe in"

Actually though I think Obama should have done a couple of those just so MaGoo could lose his temper live on TV. I hope to see that in 2 weeks but it would be nice to see that happen more.

[AldebTX]

6. As A Democrat

I don't really care WHAT Sarah Palin thinks about who my candidate chose as his running mate. If she was in my party I might pay her some attention, but would probably dismiss her statement any way. Joe Biden is my Vice Presidential candidate.

That being said....I will put my party's vice presidential candidate up again Sarah Palin's party's vice presidential candidate any day. Please get back to me when the Repug VP candidate starts talking to the press in press conferences and on a daily basis like my party's candidate does.

I have a feeling I won't be seeing that much in this campaign.

[Bob Dobbs]

7. She has yet to get anything right.

100% fail rating.

[BeFree]

8. There she goes

Already putting herself above everyone. See, she got picked so she thinks she's the best.

Little does she know her own words, deeds and actions have never been tested like Hillary's, and soon enough she is gonna fall flat on her face and everyone is gonna be saying how that McCain wishes he hadn't picked her.

It's coming. Her fundamentalist creed is scaring everyone who finally sees it... her Mission from God bs is spreading rapidly.

[Virginia Dare]

48. The doctor is in. Narcissistic Personality Disorder...

oh, and clueless b**ch.

[babylonsister]

10. Who gives a shit what she says? I wish she'd pipe down and go away. Maybe

Biden's knowledge might be intimidating her.

[shanti]

50. exactly!

who gives a flying rat's ass what she thinks? she'll probably be wearing a wire when she debates biden, just like her predecessors!

[meow2u3]

12. If Barack Obama picked Hillary Clinton as VP pick

Then McCain would be so dumb he'd pick Alan Keyes as his running mate. Keyes makes Clarence Thomas look liberal, and George W. Bush look like a genius, by comparison.

[Danger Mouse]

14. If everytime she opened her mouth, there was a huge fart noise instead of words...

I think she'd be just about as charming and effective as she is now.

[stlsaxman]

15. She sounds like she's been reading BartCop...

only she doesn't bash Obama as harshly.

(that was really hard for me to post- but, as true as the post is, i still loves me some BartCop!)

[Liberalynn]

16. Sarah We Know Hillary Clinton

and you are no Hillary Clinton.

She is 1000 times the woman you will ever think of being and you aren't even fit to say her name.

No true supporter of Hillary Clinton, no matter how disappointed they are, would be stupid enough to vote for you Caribou Barbie, so go home, and leave running the government to the people with more than half a brain.

[llmart]

35. Hear, hear!

You are so correct. All my women friends who were avid Hillary supporters have said they were disappointed but there is no way in hell they would vote for McLame/Pallid.

[RiverStone]

19. Don't take the bait!!!!!

[CitizenPatriot]

20. yes, that's right rove

keep using puppet palin to try to stir up anger and angst

NOT GOING TO WORK

and that is from one Hillary supporter, backed with a ton of other HIllary supporters. READ MY LIPSTICK, ASSHOLE: NO PALIN, NO WAY, NO HOW.

[MidwestTransplant]

21. Did Gibson mention that SarahCuda complained that Hillary whines?

[Cha]

57. saracruda has all kinds of

shit comin' outta her mooseburger trap.

[Roy]

22. Answer:

With Hillary I at least would have someone who knew what the Bush doctine is, and the damage he would cause. as well as the and cost in lives lost due to Bushs' wrongful occupation of a country that was not an imminent threat.

[NYC Liberal]

23. Trying to foster disunity....GUESS WHAT!

The primaries are over, and the party is way past that shit. The "try to stir up disappointed Hillary supporters" stopped working a while ago.

But keep on wasting your time, the better for Obama.

[mac56]

24. IT'S A TRAP!

[Politicalboi]

25. But I thought Hillary

WHINED!!!!!!!!!!!

[CitizenPatriot]

26. I knew something was off with this post!

Sarah Palin thinks....

Lost me right there, you liars! We all know Sarah Palin does not think. She doesn't blink or think -- she's there to be the readiness. or some such nonsense.

[Kierkegaard]

43. I thought she was there for her expertise on foreign policy.

You know, energy.

[Waiting For Everyman]

27. And I think Porky will regret screwing over her BIL.

[Diane R]

30. I see Palin plays the classic game, 'divide and conquer'.

[HopeHoops]

32. John McCain might already regret picking Sarah Palin

I mean, wouldn't you?

[Blaze Diem]

34. Tell us what else you think of Sarah. What's your opinion on Darfur?

Homelessness in America. Problems of inner cities with populations larger than the entire state of Alaska? World hunger?
Can Sara Palinausea step beyond her small town gossip mentality and talk about larger looming issues?
We have questions for you.
Any depth to your thinking Sarah?

[kmdemqueen]

36. She is sorry!

She is not sorry. she is just trying to appeal to us women. Come on I am not going to buy it. You know if he did then I guess it would be a hell of a cat fight. I actually pay money to see that. Stop giving us you B.S. Sarah

[Malva Zebrina]

37. well Hillary /Clinton has certainly not gone out of her way

to defend Obama and the ticket, has she? Oh sure, she makes speeches and raises money, but this egocentric woman is surely looking ahead to another run and does not want to get her fingers dirty by forcefully defending Obama too much, doncha know. She has dumped him so to speak for her own ambitions. She has been somewhat bland in this whole thing,.

and, btw, where the hell are the other Democrat big wigs in this? Gore? Absent. Bill Clinton? Playing us along still seeking a third term in the
wH with his wife's next run? It is almost laughable. By that time the Clintons will be so used up and old hat, they will not have a chance at a nomination.

Obama seems to be out there on his own and still, without them all, those fearless Democrats, is keeping up and has a good chance,. The rest of them, imo, can go pound salt.

[glinda]

42. Agreed

Hillary should speak up or give an interview. I think she is intelligent and qualified but the chips fell as they did. I think that if she is so selfish to ruin things then do we want her anyways? I think not. But if she is a team player and is "real" she will do something.

[Zuiderelle]

53. And some people wouldn't be happy even if she sacrificed her life on the altar of Obama.

Give it a fucking rest already.

[Zhade]

73. "By that time the Clintons will be so used up and old hat" - will be?

This was her best chance, and she couldn't pull it off.

[ShesJustAGirl]

[madrchsod]

38. she`s a ......never mind

[kayell]

39. Sarah, you are no Hilary Clinton nt

[bronco214]

40. Sarah

Sarah Palin thinks is an oxymoron.

[mitchum]

41. Who cares what you think, you crazy bitch

[sop]

47. I think McCain is going to regret choosing Palin.

After McCain goes down in flames, the post-election post-mortems begin, and the Republicans begin casting about for someone to blame, Sarah Palin will be seen as one of the worst choices for VP in modern history. Good luck being re-elected after all the BS, scandals and lies, Sarah. I'm sure you can go back to your old job in Wasilla.

[Virginia Dare]

49. Worry about your own self you clueless twit...

it's your buddy McShame who will end up regretting a whole lot of shit by the time this is over, not the least of which is hitching his star to an idiot like you.

[muntrv]

51. Bwahahahaha!!!

[Zuiderelle]

52. She couldn't be more blatant in whoring for Hillary supporter votes. AND SHE WILL NOT GET THEM.

[pitohui]

55. yeah we all think that way to go captain obvious

telling us the sun rises in the east does not actually impress intelligent women, imagine that

[Sewsojm]

58. I hope she regrets ever entering this race!

Go Fuck Yourself Sarah!!!

[superconnected]

59. After reading her interviews, I think stating "Sarah Palin Thinks" is a big reach.

[L. Coyote]

60. Which Sarah Palin, the Sarah "In what regard, Charlie?" Palin from Wasilla?

"In what regard, Charlie?"
Was she thinking, "bush doctorin'" or "Give me a damn clue, please"?

Palin should focus on what McCain thinks, and her 6x4 index cards.

[Ian David]

62. Oh dear god... Drug-addled gasbag pedophile Limbaugh's "Operation: Kaos" has sunk the GOP ticket. nt

[JerseygirlCT]

65. Oh well, if SARAH PALIN says so...

Why in the world would ANYONE care what this idiot has to say? Honestly.

[annabanana]

67. She should NEVER start a sentence with the words "I think".

At least not in public.

[AgadorSparticus]

68. yawn!!.....miss beauty queen is still posing....wake me up when she says something important.

[iowa_democrat]

69. That's ok Sarah

I think McCain will be sorry he didn't pick Kay Baily Huchinson, or even Carli Fiorina by the time the election rolls around.

It would also be nice to see ABC give some face time to Biden after spending 3 hours with Sarah. She's off for a tough interview with Hannity later. Probably need another week to prep for that now. Whereas Biden seems to have dropped off the map. I'm not sure if he has or the MSM just isn't covering him, because no one has photoshopped his head on some interesting porn pix.

[AlphaCentauri]

70. So that was the republicans desire? Thanks Sarah for been sincere

[Zhade]

71. Palin IS stupid - polls showed a majority of registered voters didn't want her on Obama's ticket.

NT!

[Imagevision]

74. If Obama can handle Hillary and Bill, doing Palin will simply be another Obama exercise...

exercise

[Imagevision]

75. If Obama can handle Hillary and Bill, doing Palin will simply be another Obama exercise...

[fortyfeetunder]

76. You got that right, if I were Palin I'd zip my lips

because Palin surely is no Hillary Clinton.

And as all her skeletons and their entrails fall out of the closet for all the world to see, she may regret accepting to be VPOTUS!!!

[Samantha]

77. She trying to stir up division with the Democractic Party

Picking the scabs of fresh wounds. I don't the watch the woman, I don't read her, I don't care what she thinks. I am staying focused on the issues that are important to me.

[Imagevision]

78. Sarah Palin will think differently while returning to her hockey mom job after 11/4

[and-justice-for-all]

79. Moosilini, open your mouth when you have something intelligent..

to say...thanks.

[eringer]

80. She is Out of Her Mind

If Obama picked Hillary, McSame would have never picked her. The rest of the campaign would have been about Hillary and the Republicans would have crucified her with Sean Hannity driving in the nails. I agree with Bill Clinton that Obama will win easily. No one wants more of the same.

[WhiteTara]

81. I wonder if McLame will be sorry he DID pick her

The rock around his neck gets heavier every day. May they both sink together.

[bmbmd]

82. Obama may regret not choosing Clinton.

McCain will definitely regret not choosing Clinton.
