It just keeps coming:
" It’s time that a normal Joe Six-Pack American is finally represented in the position of vice presidency..." said Sarah Palin of herself this week.
We agree that she represents Joe Sixpack. We disagree that qualifies her in any way to be a heart beat away from leading the free world. It's too complicated for that, now. Joe Sixpack can't understand a financial crisis and credit markets. We need someone who does.
Can it be true? Can it really be true that we have gone from Washington and Jefferson, John Adams and Ben Franklin, to a self-proclaimed "Joe Sixpack?"

I'll take Joe Six-Pack over Joe Biden, anyday. Oh, and so will lots of Hillary voters. Buh-bye.
And this comment proves the point. Thank you.
Oh stop with the Joe Six-pack crap.
We're electing her to potentially carry in her hands the GREATEST RESPONSIBILITY AND THE GREATEST POWER IN HUMAN HISTORY!
Any idiot can see that she's not up to the job.
She does not read. She can't identify a single Supreme Court case besides Roe V. Wade (who wants to bet whether she knows what that case actually decided?). BTW, a major Supreme Court case dealt with the Exxon Valdez spill that directly impacts the state she allegedly governs. You'd think she'd know something about that.
She cannot give a coherent answer to a simple question about her attitude toward the most significant financial crisis since The Great Depression.
There's plenty of working-class Joes who have educated themselves, who know history, politics, issues, who are 20 times more intelligent than Palin, better read, wiser and more knowledgeable.
One of the most brilliant people I've met lately drives long-haul truck for a living. I'd rather vote for him, but he likes his work.
This isn't about elitism; it's about basic competence. Palin is incapable of doing the job and McCain's abysmal judgement in putting her in this position is damning.
And you people on the right know it. Quit lying to yourselves and quit lying to America.

Hey Sarah:
This case from THIS YEAR affected YOUR STATE.
The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision Wednesday slashing the damages Exxon Mobil (XOM) must pay as a result of the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill could have unexpectedly wide-ranging consequences. An award to Alaskan fishermen and other residents was reduced from $2.5 billion to about $500 million.
I guess if it doesn't involve the all-consuming issue of abortion, it ain't important, right?
