kad je trebalo odabrati VP, republikanci su mislili samo na to kako se izjednaciti sa obamom i vratiti se u igru, a ne predati izbore samo tako. i posto je McCain umjerni republikanac nije isao na ruku konzervativcima, kojih je onako, povelik broj u stranci. u igri je takodje bila zaostavstina hilari (koju preazirem iz dna duse, lazov, ma fuj, najezim se kad se sjetim nje, da je ona pobjedila obamu... bila bi muka) i ko dodje kao najbolji izbor? sarah palin. zena, samouvjerna, konzervativna, usprotivila se korupciji u svojoj drzavi... na prvi pogled super rijesenje! ko je tada imao vremena da duboko kopa po njenoj proslosti? na kraju krajeva, ona nema nista toliko sramotno u svojoj proslosti niti u njenoj porodici... samo je presmjesna posmatrajuci je u svjetlu lidera svjetske supersile. i da je mccain mladi, ona ne bi ni bila toliki "kamen spoticanja". covjek joj ne bio dao puno ovlasti i cao, tj. minimizirao bi njenu moc. no svi znamo da je john bolestan i notion of her replacing him as chief executive is..... ne znam, smjesna samim tim - zastrasujuca? i onda mnogi ljudi se pitaju, what the fu..k was he thinking naming her VP?
sad, valja je prodat i pokazat da ona i nije tako blesav izbor. i divim se kako je "prodaju". super kako se prica premjesta sa njene competence na cinjenicu da je zena, tj. trazi se potpora drugih zena u nasoj vjecitoj borbi za emancipaciju i daljnje priznavanje u drustvu, posebno onom visokom. super su to odradili... evo kako kazu republikanci put the money where their mouth is and actually have a woman candidate. ha! koja retorika! ali it works! ljudi su svugdje stoka i samo trebas servirati misljenje i trubiti jedno te isto again and again i na kraju ljudi ce i prihvatiti oficijelnu "istinu".....
ja evo cekam da joj cujem govor, valjda necu zaspati dotad.....
Sa jednog bloga, obavezno procitati, briljantno!
Pretpostavljam da svi znaju ko je Karl Rove?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Republican strategist Karl Rove said on Face the Nation Sunday that he expects presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama to choose a running mate based on political calculations, not the person's readiness for the job.
"I think he's going to make an intensely political choice, not a governing choice," Rove said. "He's going to view this through the prism of a candidate, not through the prism of president; that is to say, he's going to pick somebody that he thinks will on the margin help him in a state like Indiana or Missouri or Virginia. He's not going to be thinking big and broad about the responsibilities of president."
Rove singled out Virginia governor Tim Kaine, also a Face the Nation guest, as an example of such a pick.
"With all due respect again to Governor Kaine, he's been a governor for three years, he's been able but undistinguished," Rove said. "I don't think people could really name a big, important thing that he's done. He was mayor of the 105th largest city in America."
Rove continued: "So if he were to pick Governor Kaine, it would be an intensely political choice where he said, `You know what? I'm really not, first and foremost, concerned with, is this person capable of being president of the United States."
Yes, the real problem with Tim Kaine is that he's only been governor of a large state for three years, and before that, he was only the mayor of a mid-size city. This, of course, made him "undistinguished," unprepared for national office, and the very idea of putting him on a national ticket was practically ridiculous.
Thanks, Karl.
Tim Kaine’s experience:
- Governor of Virginia (pop: 7,643,000) - 2 years 8 months.
- Lt. Governor of Virginia - 4 years
- Mayor of Richmond (pop: 200,123) - 2 years
- City Council of Richmond - 4 years
Sarah Palin’s experience:
- Governor of Alaska (pop: 670,000) - 1 year 9 months.
- Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska (pop: 9,780) - 2 years
- City Council of Wasilla - 4 years
So I guess according to Karl Rove, on McCain:
"So if he were to pick Governor Palin, it would be an intensely political choice where he said, `You know what? I'm really not, first and foremost, concerned with, is this person capable of being president of the United States."
