Cafferty: Does McCain Undercut His Own Message With VP Pick?
Uploaded by: heathr456
Video Description:
From the Cafferty File:
All we have heard from John McCain for months is, "Barack Obama is too young. Barack Obama is too inexperienced to be commander-in-chief. Who do you want answering the phone in the White House at three a.m.? Blah, blah, blah."
So what does McCain do? He picks someone to be his running mate who is even younger than Barack Obama and has less experience.
Sara Palin is 44 -- Obama is 47. Sara Palin is in her first term as governor of Alaska, a state that has 13 people and some caribou. Obama is a member of the United States Senate from Illinois.
It's not a big deal, except for this: If McCain wins, he will be the oldest person ever inaugurated for a first term at 72. He has a history of health problems that include bouts of melanoma, a potentially deadly form of skin cancer. It is reasonable to consider that McCain's running mate could be called upon to be our president.
Meanwhile, some may see this as a move for McCain to attract disaffected women who voted for Hillary Clinton and aren't yet behind Obama. But that might not work for a few reasons: Palin, like McCain, is pro-life. Also, she might be a woman, but she's no Hillary Clinton -- when it comes to her experience or her ideology.
At some point, voters will have to ask themselves who they would want running the country if it ever became necessary: Joe Biden or Sarah Palin.
Here's my question to you: Does John McCain undercut his own message by naming someone even younger and more inexperienced than Barack Obama to be his running mate?

All she CAN do is spew out racist paroles with pure hatred and malice in her eyes.
The mere thought that this bigoted, racist airhead might one day have the nuclear codes is scary as hell. Nightmare...
God sent his son once to save the world, if McCain wins we just might need him again.
I really cannot believe I'm saying this because I love God, but don't believe in religion.
The Republican spokesman replied, without skipping a beat:
'That's because McCain's supporters are at work.'
At that point, the interview ended!
wow ..how do you know God w/o religion.
