Has Governor Sarah Palin became a political liability to Senator John McCain, the 72-year-old presidential nominee of the Republican Party in the 2008 U.S. Presidential election? Does she lack the right stuff of which savvy world leaders are made? If the answer to both question is a resounding “yes,” McCain’s selecting the Republican vice presidential candidate will prove fatal on Election Day 2008.
Since her accepting the presidential nominee — of the Republican Party in the 2008 U.S. Presidential election, Palin has heightened the anxieties of McCain’s 2008 U.S. Presidential campaign team, each of whom are exhaustively working for the senior Senator from Arizona — a fiesty, well-rounded Senator for whom many Republican and Democratic voters have a lot of respect. The Vietnam War veteran and former P.O.W. is campaigning with the endurance of an Olympic athlete, and he campaigns like a winning and proven presidential candidate.
Despite the fact many Americans are displeased with the U.S. Representatives’ passing the 2008 Wall Street bailout bill, which immediately became law, Sens. McCain and Obama still leads the pack of presidential candidates of other political parties.
Many political pundits contend that Obama lacks experience; however, McCain biggest problem is Palin, who is less experienced that Obama. Although McCain is in reasonably good health for a former POW, the age factor still remains:
How well will Palin fare should she becomes the first female President if McCain dies while still in office?
For many middle-aged, white women Republican voters, they believe she is poised to serve as U.S. President if the McCain/Palin wins the U.S. Presidential election in November.
