McCain/Palin Ticket vs. Obama/Biden Ticket

How much thought did McCain put into his selection of a running mate? Did he wait till Obama picked so he could pick something opposite? Was he thinking that Obama would pick Clinton?

I think there are few in Washington who have a serious objection to Biden. Biden has a reputation of being level-headed and thoughtful. Maybe not a firebrand or a lively guy - hey I remember the bowties - but he is well liked by everyone. You know who he is and where he stands. He rounds out the Obama ticket nicely.

McCain picked the worst person he could find! He just wanted a woman to catch the female votes lost when Hillary stepped out and then wasn't picked for Veep. What a stupid move! At his age, too! His running mate will likely be President before the first term is up.

This is one of the scariest elections I've ever seen. If McCain/Palin win, I'll have to give up all and move. I don't want to live in a world where people don't think. Some of you may be saying, "Let her!" but think of living under the kind of government that she will bring about.

I live in "Fundamental-Christian-Bible-Belt-Land." A lot of these folks think that "bringing the Lord back" means making the world a horrible place that only Jesus and God can save. What if they are wrong????? What if Jesus/God/Universal Intelligence could care less about the human race????? Do YOU want to take that chance?

For the record, I'm a Christian, too. I just happen to think that we should do our level best to make a world that we and our children would be glad to live in, not the other way around.
