Poll: Palin A Bigger Drag On McCain Than Bush

MSNBC:

With voters' increased confidence in his ability to serve as commander in chief, as well as a majority who now believe he would do a good job as president, Barack Obama has opened up his biggest advantage over John McCain in the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

With two weeks to go until Election Day, Obama now leads his Republican rival by 10 points among registered voters, 52 to 42 percent, up from 49 to 43 percent two weeks ago.

Does anyone know if the Palin children are attending school? Do they have a tutor who travels with them? No one seems to know.

After a painful and agonizing 8 yrs of being governed down the path of failure by one dunce, the American people have a right to be gun shy. Palin has demonstrated she is a bigger dunce then Dubya, but McCain is the biggest dunce of them all for picking her.

At the heart of this matter, is Americans can better tolerate a sincere person lacking in knowledge, than they can a disingenuous PHONY who lacks intelligence or any desire to learn about critical issues (as per stated reading material in Couric interview)! At least President George W. Bush knew what he didn't know and surrounded himself with capable people, Senator McCain has done just the opposite, because he didn't want people to doubt who was in charge! What does that tell you about his ego?

Atsa somma kinda bigga drag, eh?

[loudyk]

Well, no kidding. It's hard to imagine that it could be possible, but Palin is even dumber than Bush....and that is some accomplishment to achieve!

[marymansour]

This is the truth - Bush has paled in light of the ignorant, screeching Sarah. As Bush retreats during these last days, Sarah Palin is out and about trumpeting her ignorance on such subjects as the senate, expansion of the vice presidential powers, and slurs on Obama's character. She enlightens third graders as to the senate being under the control of the vice president. She dons her expensive clothing bought by the RNC and addresses people that have little education and even lower incomes. This is her fan base. Those not included among her fans are the major Republican figures such as Colin Powell and Bernanke who have endorsed Obama. I just hope and pray that the next two weeks will pass without major incident and reflect the ever growing popularity of Obama culminating in November 4th when we will know for sure that President Barack Hussein Obama will take office.

OBAMA/BIDEN'08.

I'm not a gambler, and this is why, and also why I don't respect john McCane for having a gambling problem.

He gambled big. He bet everything on a long shot. And he's losing big.

In my heart I just KNEW Americans would eventually see through this divisive woman. How one looks is never a reason for voting for someone except the part it takes in a beauty contest. We must LISTEN and WATCH. Poor John must have been bewitched into his latest campaign tactics and it is obvious it does not work any longer. We the people are becoming more savy thanks to the vigilant news media keeping us up to the minute. Now is the time for New Hampshire (along with every other state leaning towrd McCain and his bewitcher) to take a good look - listen to the candidates and make a wise choice. It surely is a no-brainer for the intellegent people I know. As they head to the early voting polls they just chuckle at the clothing bill for Palin and her family.

McClueless made a BIG mistake picking this chick and he appears to be paying for his reckless choice. How dare he foist this creature onto the American electorate?

No, no, no!!! She needs to disappear back into oblivion ASAP so I can get my life back to normal. I don't need her hanging around ruining my holidays! She's outta here in two weeks......you betcha!

[loudyk]

yeah right. He is just trying to save face. What is he going to do besides lie? That's what happens when your vp running mate wasn't even on the short list and was brought on board after only talking by phone for an hour. Yep, this is definitely the guy I want close to the red phone. He obviously has some kind of age related mental issue going on these days.

[hortonhearsawho]
