[QUOTE="Gideon, post: 1504380, member: 7898"] I knew all about her before she was McCain's running-mate, and was excited that he picked her. I thought "YES! 1.She's female, so they can't be too hard on her without looking like jerks. And 2.She hasn't done anything in Washington for them to bring up and question. PERFECT! Then she spent the next few weeks dodging question because she didn't know basic politics (she had no idea what the Bush Doctrine was, for example), and even though she made some good points and said all sorts of things that I agree with, she said them in a way that made showed she had no idea what she was talking about, that someone else told her everything she believes. There was no insight of her own. She does draw crowds, and that's a good thing, but don't speak if you're just going to keep making the rest of us conservatives look like idiots. [/QUOTE]
