Letter: McCain out of touch with Palin on ticket

September 04, 2008

Dear Editor,

Good grief. This election is turning into a comedy of errors for the Republicans. We have a George W. Bush clone who has now chosen a very inexperienced woman as a running mate. John McCain is too old to be running for office, and his health is not the greatest, with severe injuries to his mind and body as a POW and a history of cancer. His speeches have shown a tendency to get confused about the Vietnam, Desert Storm and Iraq wars.

Now he chooses a total novice female as a running mate. A woman, virtually unheard of, in a feeble attempt to attract women voters. If this is representative of his decision making, I want none of it.

Sarah Palin is not Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is brilliant, experienced and her work history and ethics makes her worthy of the presidency or vice presidency. Hillary is capable and able to assume the office of the president of the United States in the event the president were to die or become unable to carry out his duties.

What in the world does a total novice like Sarah Palin have to offer the United States should something happen to John McCain? She would be a fish out of water. Does John McCain honestly believe that women are so stupid that they wouldn't notice this little problem? Does he truly believe that women would rush to vote for the ticket just because a woman was added? Choosing an inexperienced woman as a running mate just confirms how totally out of touch with reality John McCain really is.
