John McCain Demonstrates Maverick Spirit…And Helps PUMA Get Over It!

While Barack Obama is too egotistical to have a woman more cpapable than him as his vice president, John McCain once again demonstrates his maverick spirit with his choice of Governor Sarah Palin.

Maybe Michelle Obama can now swallow the toad she was apparently choking on during Hillary Clinton’s DNC Convention Speech. But what is Barack Obama to do about PUMA? After all, he did acknowledge his Grandmother and mention his Mother in his Great Oration at the Temple. What more could these peopel want? Respect? Democracy? Fair Elections? No, it was his nomination and Convention and he ran it the way he saw fit. After all, the Supreme Court decided that the Party did not have to answer to the Voters so why don’t all these cry babies just get over it?

Now, it looks like they can. Thank you, John McCain for having the courage to pick a woman Vice President during this controversial election.

We in the middle, need a candidate that DEMONSTRATES THROUGH ACTION that they will make balanced, progressive choices and be inclusive.

I have always been proud to be a women and an America but….today I think I’m going to bust. Thank you John McCain and Sarah Polin. Notice their names are the same size and font that says a lot about John McCain

Comment by olivia1998 | August 31, 2008
John McCain should be called the white haired fox. He has out smarted the Obama campaign at every step. The Democratic Party abandoned HRC in favore of Obama. Obama abandoned HRC as a VP. Obama neglected to visit our troops in the German hospital. Palin has gone to Kiwate to visit our troops. McCain and Palin both have sons in the US Military while Obama has so little respect for our troops he won’t even credit for a job well done in Iraq. Palin has more experience than Obama. Obama has called for change, then chooses a Washington same-old. Palin is not part of the Washington same-old. My vote is for the white haired fox. Go McCain-Palin.

at least the republicans (via McCain) make me proud to be a woman this year…thank you Johnny Mac for making this possible and you have my vote and the votes of my family that would have gone to Hillary had she been the nominee..I cannot vote for an illegal nominiee like Obama..

Comment by athyrio | August 31, 2008
The idea of this video is a good idea. I didn’t like the song though. It sounded to ‘country’ or something like that. It should have been RIGHT NOW by Van Halen. Van Halen is Sarah’s favourite band, and it would have been fitting to use that song. I think you missed the opportuntiy to make the hottest video on youtube. The only way to correct this is use RIGHT NOW…. and do it ASP..

Wonderful video…. Thank you so much to taking this to another level… And we can’t stop now!!!

Lets reform the dONC……

Comment by BMW60 | August 31, 2008
Felicitaciones a Sarah y BRAVO por McCain que no tuvo miedo de elegir a una mujer inteligente, fuerte, decidida, exitosa en su plancha presidencial.

Que diferencia con el inseguro y mezquino Obama, que no tuvo la decencia de ofrecerle la vice presidencia a Hillary. Claro, Obama sabe que Hillary lo iba a opacar completamente. Ahora si vemos quien representa el CAMBIO EN LA PRACTICA, y no solamente en palabras vacias y demagogia barata.

VIVA HILLARY, VIVA SARAH, GO MCCAIN!!!!

Comment by Pilar | August 31, 2008
She looks like a hard working woman.

The Obama crowd is unrealistic. They told us they could win without us, that we’re racists for not voting for an inexperienced candidate for the President of the United States. Now when we decide to take our votes to the candidate we believe is the right person for the job, they already have planned to blame Hillary when Obama loses. Al Sharpton has even told the LA Times that the Clintons need to keep their people in line.

They are obviously unaware that we have brains and in fact we use them. Hillary is a hero to me not a god. The cause is beyond being just for her. The DNC has turned it into a moral battle. My vote will never go to them this year because that says what they did was right and it was fraud.

Had I been a republican during the floating chad days and I felt my party had been criminal than I would do the same.

McCain/Palin 2008!!!!!!!!

A NY PUMA

Comment by McDemocrat | August 31, 2008
Outstanding! I was a lifelong Democrat whom recently mailed in my registration card switching to Independent. Why? The D party’s treatment of the person that should have been the next President of the USA, Hillary!

I was planning to not vote at all in November but now, with McCain’s selection of Gov. Palin, I will be casting my vote for McCain.

And HELL YES, it is because she is a woman! The D party selected Obama because he is black… two can play that game.

Comment by BeachBum | August 31, 2008
Been a Democrat throughout my voting life–which is long and fraught with disappointment. Thus have been a student of polarized political gambits. Though 2008 is billed as a breakthrough election, I don’t see too much difference between this cycle and past runups to the final countdown.
With the advent of TV, the process has been hijacked by artists of propaganda so skilled, it has become a shell game–the hand always quicker than the eye’s reaction.

I admit to being enamoured of John Edwards as a fresh face with a silver delivery. Hillary, after being constantly dissed by Party wigs, got my sympathy and then my admiration. Just knew she was our first woman president.
Now I feel like a dreamy gal who has been stood up on prom night. What could be more humiliating?

I am stuck with a conundrum: where does a loyal
liberal go for solice when the primaries have been rigged and the only alternative is voting for repugnant Repubs?
Sarah Palin should be a Dem but she subscribes to the traditional platform I have abhored. It makes me wonder at what point in her life did she make the choice to become a conservative and is she really so politcally ambitious she will compromise to fit the mold? How can any savvy woman fight against her own self-interests?

With those questions foremost in my calculus, I have decided to write in Hillary though it is a hollow gesture.
Going back decades citing conservative malfeasance and criminal activities, beginning with the Nixon administration, I cannot support another GOP ticket in the hope that a woman will bring about parity and justice.

There are just too many idealogues in power behind the scenes to regenerate such fantasies in realpolitik. And
they come in all shades and sizes. I wish Sarah good luck and hope Obama is sent back to the Senate for upgrading.
Unfortunately, one of these candidates will be in a position to wield power over our lives. Or at least they
will be the public face of those behind the curtain.

Lord help us.

Comment by goldengrahme | August 31, 2008
Having been a life-long (40+ years) Democrat, I finally thought this year was it – Hillary was going to be my president – I had no doubts – then the DNC and my party basically threw me out, kicked me to the curb, and said we don’t need you. Was confused and upset, found Riverdaughter’s site, Party Unity My Ass slogan, and from there found Murphy at PUMApac. There I was able to come to grips, have a channel for venting my frustrations, and also a source for action against the DNC, the Democratic Party, the MSM, superdelegates and regular pledged delegates to the Democratic Party. Hillary did not win and I will not be voting for the immature, inadequate, unqualified empty suit who was selected by the Party. I can not understand how the majority of the party was sucked into the cult but I will not forget how I and others were and are treated by the Democratic Party and the cult members/followers of the Messiah who is currently on the road trying to convince all of us who were thrown out of the Party that now they need us to win.
I appreciate and respect John McCain’s decision to select a woman as his running mate. She sounds like a very capable woman – she’s not Hillary, but then again, women like Hillary are very few and far between. If I decide to vote for president in the November election, I may decide to vote for McCain/Palin because the alternative scares the hell out of me. I also have decided that unless current Democrats that are running for election need to convince me that they are not Kool aid drinkers – those running for relection need to be gone – I have no use for them whatsoever.
Thanks for letting me state my story – when democracy returns to the Democratic Party, so will I.

Quite simply, it makes my heart sing.

Comment by CognitiveDissonance | August 31, 2008
Hillary Clinton was my choice and she said it well. “If you hear the dogs . . . keep running.” McCain and Palin keep running for our great country!! I am becoming a Republican convert. What other choice is there? I will not miss the opportunity to vote. I just can’t vote for the great one.

While off topic, I must comment about former President Carter’s remarks also. While he did not leave office as one of our great presidents, I was and am impressed by his makeover to help the less fortunate through Habitat for Humanity and other humanitarian efforts. So imagine how appalled I was when he indicated the other night that McCain was taking advantage of his time as a POW, inserting it into every message. Well, no one has until now probably said out loud that Carter has taken advantage of being a great christian and sharing his beliefs although he seems to write a new book every other year to share wiuth us his thoughts on his religion and faith. He has probably taken advantage of his faith to line his pockets with book sales. Reminds me of Obama, with little of a record, who resorts to writing books.

So now I will have to find two new places to contribute to other causes. The DNC stopped receiving funds when they allowed Hillary Clinton to be misrepresented without stepping in and now my favorite charity Habitat for Hunmanity is off the list. Perhaps I will contribute to causes for veterans. My 2 brothers served during the Viet Nam conflict and felt they were never thanked for the sacrifices they made to this conflict, but like McCain they put country before self. While they did not suffer in the way McCain did as a POW, my remaining sibling remembers the scars and horrors well. More improtantly, they both recalled with sadness our childhood friends who did not return to their families. We have a lot to be thankful for in MCCain and Palin. They serve their country everyday while their sons are off fighting a war on our behalf–regardless who is at fault. That’s how my brothers felt about the Viet Nam conflict, but they wanted to serve their country and they did it admirably.

I can’t believe you all would get wrapped up in being SECOND. VP is nothing. Geraldine did this 20+ years ago and it is nothing new and nothing remarkable.
.
Have you no self-respect but to gush over being handed some prize by the cool guy running for senior class president?

Comment by JSF | September 1, 2008
Yeah, I gushed over Gov.Sarah Palin with tears in my eyes that this was the Republican’s nominee for VP. What a great choice from the maverick John McCain. I cried with pride for Sarah and her family and America. Look what the Democrats did this year to try to humilate and degrade our hero, Hillary Clinton at that farce of a convention.
No, I will not vote Democratic or be a party to that disgrace of a selection for Pres. Our votes and work were tossed aside like trash. They tried to diminish Hill and Bill too, but we got the message they conveyed in their great speeches.

McCain/Palin it will be and I think America will be better
for it!

Comment by AnneinPA | September 1, 2008
Having voted Democratic all my adult life, I’ve come to a sad but sobering realization this election cycle. My hopes have been crushed, steamrolled, and disrespected during the primaries, and even though I held out a glimmer of hope while Hillary won large state after large state during the late voting…the caucus system and the proportional distribution left me feeling a bit sick and disillusioned.

Then the convention was a total whitewash and farce and I felt I abandoned with nowhere to vent my frustrations. I just could not fathom validating what I had seen during the primary with my vote in November.

I was intriqued by McCain, but not convinced. Well, all that changed when he nominated Sarah Palin for VP. Now you may wonder, why would I consider a ticket that is so diametrically different from Obama or even Hillary, or even any democratic ticket in the past.

Well, simply put…I will not reward the DNC with my vote this year for the fraud that was committed in this party. I am not worried about Roe v Wade (it will become a state issue at the worst if it is overturned which I doubt). I AM worried where the country will go if Obama is elected.

He has NOT shown me anything in his past or in his experience other than how to give a good speech and game the system in election after alection (his history is Chicago-style machine politcs at its worst.)

Palin’s speech was an eye opener for me. I did not think I would vote Republican, ever, but now I am left with a choice of not voting and “hoping” for a McCain victory so that Hillary can run again in 2012, or actually VOTING for the ticket with a woman on it that I can admire.

Well, my choice is simple this election and I will proudly vote this time for a woman that has actually shown she can CHANGE the way a government is run (unlike Obama) and make a difference in Washington. My story may not be all that different from yours…and many of you may be reaching the same conclusion I have this year. Just know, you are not alone.

In a way, yes, it’s sad for my party, but I can do nothing less than put my country first this time with no regret.

Comment by Jana | September 1, 2008
This video breaks my heart. Hillary is head and shoulders above all the candidates, and all the excitement and admiration should be about her. I feel so sad for our country. We finally had a chance to have an amazing, competent president who would have made all of us proud. What a loss…

The Media and DNC will not tell me how to vote. It’s McCain/Palin for me.

Comment by Melissa | September 1, 2008
Arm in arm with you, Jana, and all.

I am a woman (Once I matured, I did not assume the mantle of “lady” due to its origins : http://thinkexist.com/dictionary/meaning/lady/). Regardless, ladies, I completely respect yet obviously disagree with your opinions. Fortunately, I am in total agreement with Hillary’s currently held positions. And blessedly, Hillary, as well as the Democratic party, will continue to thrive and prosper without you.
