Rangel looks like something floating around in a public toilet

"Why are democrats so afraid of Sarah Palin and her popularity". They ask that as if being afraid of her and her popularity is a bad thing. I'm not a Democrat and I'm terrified of her popularity. She represents just about everything that's wrong with the world and the fact she has people willing to support her is yet more worrying. She is mistrusting of intelligence, fiercly bigoted and puts her own needs before anyone elses. I'm proud to admit that Palin and her popularity scare me.

The same can be said of Obama. He is popular, flip flops, can't speak clearly without a teleprompter, etc. His popularity scares me, as it is undeserved. But you're the ones who want Obama, not me, as i live in the Netherlands and with sadness see the Obama madness in the U.S. and the pro-Obama stance among the populace here.

1) He is popular of course 2) How does he "flip flop" 3) He can talk clearly without a teleprompter, he's famous for being an excellent speaker and interviewee 4) The same can absolutely not be said of Obama on any of the points I said, in fact the opposite could be said on every point.

1] Most of the media is beguiled by him, as well as most of the world. That's often not a good sign. 2] Taking one stance and then after some time taking another stance. His stance on Iran comes to mind and the Wright debacle: watch?v=vaG6s05MKeM; watch?v=JU2Yv-rnJEo 3] You haven't seen the vids yet where he gets a question from the public in a rally and stumbles a lot: watch?v=eDJSVPAx8xc 4] I meant that Obama's popularity scares me, which is what i said. But hey, you got him, didn't you?

1) I agree, but why is that "often not a good sign"? 2) I'd be more worried if someone was completely stubborn and never changed their mind on anything regardless of anything that could change their mind. Obama seems to have been pretty steady for the majority of the time, unlike John McCain who couldn't decide how to run his campaign from 1 week to the next. 3) He stumbles on that video, but that's the least composed I've ever seen him, and the only time I've seen him trip up. 4) Fair enough.

@Barachem-He's spoken extemporaneously many times.That's one of his many strengths. How do u think he won his debates and forced Mccain to complain about Obama eloquence n peeps had to pay attention to what he was really saying. Sarah palin spent 6 yrs in 5 different colleges to get a journalism degree yet she wasnt that impressive.Both Sarah n bush are terrible speakers and they blame it on being country n small town. BS. Dr phill is country n smal townish.U live in a tru socialist country

Lets face it that war in Kosovo was simply to remove the Lewinsky scandel off the front page of every paper in the country. Anyone in politics knows it.

He meant to call her an idiot but tried to be cute and blundered into non-PC-territory. It was crass. The media ignored it because her stupidity is old news. A strong intellect should be required for a job like VP or P. For you to back her just because of gender is an insult to qualified women like Clinton and to women in general. The only people who might enact the battle of armageddon are fundamentalists like her who believe the "end-times" are near. Your deluded perspective is astounding.

Oh and Hillary is a stand up woman?! HAHA man you are so off track its staggering. You think she is a wholesome person when she stuck with Bill while he was getting his dick blown in the Oval office? Thats a good woman we should have running for VP? Your a typical libtard idiot though so I dont expect anything different out of your mouth. The Clintons were the most corrupt regime in the history of the U.S. selling major ports to the Chinese to Kenneth Star to making a false war in Kosovo.
