What do we need polar bears for, anyways?
I wasn't too enthralled with the choice of Palin going into the RNC, but she did a great job with her speech. But, she's a politician. And like McCain, Obama and Biden, she's trying to appeal to a broad base with her speeches.
Most of you guys in here are intelligent enough to know what these candidates stand for and which ways they lean on issues, but most of the general public is competely ignorant on the issues.
Some people will vote for Obama because he's a minority candidate or because he's a good looking, polished speaker.
Others will vote for McCain because he's a war hero who served his country and was a P.O.W.
Palin is going to garner votes for McCain because she is a woman and they won't have a clue as to where she stands on important issues.
It's too bad that more voters don't inform themselves and get to know a little about the candidates that are running.
