Well, interviews are coming out of the woodwork. This is parts of an interview with People Magazine. My thoughts on the interview, is that Sarah Palin likes to use the word “yup”, instead of “yes”. My question, does the leader of Israel and Germany know what “yup” means, I suggest all the world leaders, study the language of “inexperience on the world stage”, before they ask to speak with Sarah. But, you know, in middle school I actually used the word “yup” a lot, so its not necessarily the worst thing in the world. I love this interview though. I also learned that Cindy McCain had a little something to do with this choice. Guess we know why Cindy McCain isn’t in politics. Also, McCain couldn’t give a convincing reason as to why Palin would have enough experience. Im not going to say much more about because the interview itself is telling, as to what the hell McCain was thinking.
Mr. Palin, what does Sen. McCain need to know about working with your wife?
TODD PALIN: She’s a hard worker and she’s not wired normal. (Laughter)Sen. McCain, of all the candidates you considered, what drew you to her?
JOHN: Obviously, I found her to be very intelligent and very well-versed on the issues. But I think the important thing was that she’s a reformer. She’s taken on special interests since she ran for the PTA and the city council and mayor. The courage, I guess, is what most impressed me.Mrs. McCain, how much did you weigh in on this process?
CINDY MCCAIN: I was part of it. I was very enthusiastic [about Palin].Given her young age and relatively short resume, why is she any more ready to be president than Sen. Barack Obama?
JOHN: I don’t think it’s a short resume. She first ran for office back in 1992. I don’t know what Senator Obama was doing then, but the first time she ran was 1992. That’s 16 years. I think that’s a pretty, pretty event-filled and record-filled resume.
SARAH: And I haven’t had too many years other than that to fill up yet.
JOHN: There you go.Do you feel ready to be a heartbeat away from the presidency?
SARAH: Absolutely. Yup, yup. Especially with a good team around us.
What you talkin’ bout Sarah? 
Heres, an interesting video, courtesy of someone at TPM, This is how I suspect the debate will go,
You just can’t neutralize her on the experience issue without looking like a total chavaunist. Obama has had 3 years Senetorial experience. He was a “community organizer” before that. Palin has had 2 years Executive experience as governor, and was a Mayor, PTA leader, and Council person before that. What? Community organizing makes you ready to be President but local government leadership doesn’t? Get off it, people. And I’m a Democrat, by the way. A Democrat who is not going to sit around and see another woman unfairly treated in this election. Stick to ideological differences. It is the only path that will work!
Maybe you didn’t get the memo, but he has more experience in elected office then she does. You forgot to mention his years as a constitutional law professor, and a state legislator, but I can understand why you would be too lazy to research the candidates.
If McCain thinks he can grab Hillary’s voters by picking Palin, he’s more of a male chauvinist than I thought. This woman can’t hold a candle to Clinton’s experience. Why didn’t he choose a Republican woman with more experience?
I would suggest that SENSICO evaluate his/her own English before emphasizing that Palin said “yup” a few times.
QUOTE FROM SENSICO: “My question, DOES THE LEADER of Israel and Germany NOW what “yup” means, I suggest ALL THE WORLD LEADERS, study the language of “inexperience on the world stage”, before they ask to SPEAK SARAH. But, you know, in middle school I actually used the word “yup” a lot, so ITS not necessarily the worst thing in the world.”
CORRECTION: “My question, DO THE LEADERS of Israel and Germany know what yup means? I suggest THAT ALL WORLD LEADERS study the language of inexperience on the world stage before they ask to SPEAK WITH SARAH”, but in middle school I actually used the word “yup” a lot, so IT’S not necessarily the worst thing in the world.”
Also, “I’M” has an apostrophe in it, as in “I AM”, it’s not “IM”. Perhaps , you should go back to middle school!
Last but not least, following I will quote at minimum 25% of what Obama said last night during his interview at Saddleback: “UH, UH, AH, UH, UMM, AH, UH, UMM”.
Sorry, Im not running for Vice President of the free world, but thanks for correcting me.
Im nobodies, bitch so Im not going to make all the necessary correction you would like me to.
She’s just really happy. Optimistic. Beautiful. And skilled in basketball, hunting, and who knows what else.
This woman was blessed to be at a higher level than most people, so what if she’s a bit oblivious.
She has a history of shaking things up within her own party and you can bet she’ll do that in Washington too.
I have to disagree. Palin is just a pawn and we find out today that he told his team NOT to VET Palin. This tells us that he made his decision based on trying to get the women’s vote, which in of itself is degrading.
She is the most inexperienced person on a major ticket ever according to scholars. And I agree.
I hope she does say the word “yup” a lot, it will just prove to me and others that she isn’t ready.
As much as Palin is or is not capable or competent for the job still does not change the fact that McCain’s policies both foreign & domestic are the same as what has been going on for the past eight years.
When McCain made the statement that Palin was “a reformer” was he implying that she intended to “reform” McCain & his policies? Will she demand that the lobbists that run McCain’s campaign be fired? Is she going to demand that McCain really seek a new economic advisor or continue to let Sen. Phil Gramm(Americans are just whiners)(anti-regulation of banking & investment crusader)remain? This man is pretty much the handmaiden to Big Finance & it’s been his legislative maneuvering that has contributed to the present multibillion-dollar subprime implosion.
As to her use of the word “Yup” I’m not impressed but then the use of concise,correct grammer in the White House for the past eight years has not been a high priority. I expect the conversant level of speaking within the White House of a McCain/Pelin administration will be the same as it’s been with the Bush administration. After all speaking gramatically correct English is considered elitist by the Republican Party.
