A Tale of Two Sarahs »

Posted By Alexia 1 year, 2 months ago in News

As the Republican National Convention neared the end of it's first day, even amid great efforts made to support hurricane-affected Gulf states, there was still plenty of talk about Vice Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin.

To get into some specifics about her selection, I first spoke to Barbara Ciara, President of the National Association of Black Journalists--a watchdog group that monitors media coverage for diversity, as well as makes sure that people of color are represented in newsrooms--and then to Patti Johnson, a member of the Texas delegation, and a huge fan of Palin's.

    The Ted Stevens Endorsements removed from her website... She is less 2 Sarahs than McCain is 2 Johns.
    (The extremist panderer of the last 8 years can't be the same guy that ran in 2000.)
    How'd you get stuck at the lame event?

      Great observation by Ms. Ciara...it might take another week or so to determine if McCain's pick of Sarah Palin was a good move or not. As for the Texas Delegate, she seems to think men will vote for her because of her looks...interesting.

        I guess that Texas delegate thinks McSame is ok. So much for family values.

        He found himself a trophy wife. She got in an accident. He was dating his second trophy wife before he divorced his first one. Now he found himself a trophy sidekick for his campaign. His morals and mental abilities are very suspect.
