McCain-Palin: Another Error In Judgement

The selection of Governor Sarah Palin as John McCain's running mate once again calls into question McCain's judgement. A former mayor of a town of 9,000 is qualified to be a heart beat away from the Presidency??? Reports indicate that McCain met Sarah Palin once before offering the v.p. post. Leading up to Friday, McCain said his choice would be someone who he was comfortable with. Wow, their only meeting must have really been something!!

What's more plausible is that again the proclaimed maverick has kowtowed to the extremist Rovian element of the Republican party. John McCain is making a mockery of himself. On top of that, with this selection he has done a disservice to his party and our country. This woman is not prepared to be Commander-In-Chief. This selection was a stunt to focus attention on hot button issues, such as abortion, which masks the real problems of today: health care, energy, Iraq, the ecenomy and the War on Terror.

The next two months will illustrate how ridiculous this selection is and hopefully the American people will show Senator McCain the road to the Bridge to Nowhere. I'm Sure Governor Palin knows where that is!!!

Welcome!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to The Fighting Lefty blog. The purpose of this blog is to educate people as to what's happening in this country. For 8 long years, America has been weakened abroad and at home. For too long, righties have dominated the airwaves and the internet. Because of this, its time for The Fighting Lefty blog to attempt to bring reason to the political discourse in this country. We welcome your comments and hope we can get some lively debate going as we get closer to the most important election of the 21st Century.
