A Cynical Pick
SCBlackPress

My first question, “What are you talking about?”

Danielle

My first impression of John McCain’s pick of Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate is that this is a very cynical pick. At the heart of McCain’s reasoning is that Palin is a woman and therefore disaffected Hillary voters will vote for their ticket. That assumes that the only reason Hillary voters supported her was because she is a woman. Hillary supporters were in her corner because of the issues.

I couldn’t understand why the author would use the term “Cynical Pick,” so I googled it.

Result, Democrat ‘push’ terminology.

For what ever reason the writer then compares Governor Palin to Hillary Clinton. SCBlackPress doesn’t seem to realize that Hillary is not running.

But Danielle wasn’t through, she brought in Thurgood Marshall, Clarence Thomas and, for what ever reason, dragged Hillary Clinton back into the conversation.

In fact my first thought was of Clarence Thomas. The Republican thought that it was appropriate to appoint Thomas to fill the seat of Thurgood Marshall. Both black, but you couldn’t find more contrast in terms of values and judicial philosophy. A pro-life two year governor with no national security experience is not a substitute for Hillary Clinton.

Danielle, Governor Sarah Palin is not running against Senator Clinton. And why did the Republican Vice Presidential nominee remind you of Thurgood Marshall and Clarence Thomas???
