McCain just DESTROYED a key point of Obama's acceptance speech
Last night, Obama said McCain loves his country and doesn't make choices for political purposes.

Tell me, how can anyone who loves his country pick this lightweight Katherine Harris wannabe for the second-highest office in the government?

1. Well, McCain is simply slithering under Obama's low expectations.

3. To me, this comment said it all:
"For people who enjoy their privileges over their responsibilities."

Excuse me, but whatever happened to "To much is given, much is expected"?

If that doesn't sum up the GOP philosophy folks, then nothing does.

5. McCain plays irresponsible games with the future of our country. He is a gambler after all.

6. No, McCain just showed that Obama is a far more generous man than he.
DUers know McCain makes choices for political purposes, but much of the general public does not. The irony of his VP selection in relation to Obama's words will be noticed by many non DUers. The woman is amazingly underqualified-- she personifies the misbeliefs many have about equal opportunity. It won't be Obama who will be hurt by this.
