Women, Listen to Me. John McCain Is Not Your Friend
Palin is on the ticket because of the same triumph of allure over ability that has denied women opportunities for decades.

Several delegates I spoke with noted that the only aspect of Bush's foreign policy that they viewed positively was rooted in Africa.
Believe it or not: this Ayers thing is gaining momentum. The collective attention span for any one issue is two weeks and Obama's two weeks are up. It's pulp fiction but who doesn't love a good read?
It's time for a look at Presidential preferences based on the number and demographics of viewers watching the 2008 political campaign through the eyes of the cable networks.
Did our incoming commander in Afghanistan just compare the Taliban to our Founding Fathers?
John McCain: In 2000, as a lifelong Republican, I worked to get you elected. In return, you wrote an endorsement of one of my books about military service. You have changed.
"Military Times Poll: Troops backing McCain" should instead read "Troops and retirees who answered our email back McCain." Bottom line: Neither party owns the military vote.
Today, amid economic trauma which he does not seem to understand, McCain has conjured up the Stygian gloom of ultraconservatism's darkest hour.
McCain has sold soldiers down the river for symbolic 'spending cuts' while continuing to support tax cuts for the rich, loopholes for big business, and expanding not resolving the war in Iraq.
My suspicion is that no Hollywood producer is involved in the McCain presidential run. I say this for a simple reason -- it's badly orchestrated.
"I am begging you, sir. I am begging you." That was the plea of McCain supporter James T. Harris, an African-American radio host, asking McCain to go after Obama's Reverend Wright connection.
Why am I not surprised that Ayers, master of publicity is once more making front page headlines. I'm betting he's thrilled.
Liberals believe in individual liberties. And what does liberty mean? Freedom. So, exactly which freedoms are you so worried we're taking from you?
What's happening at these McCain-Palin rallies is a series of convulsions and spasms no less primordial than those we make at the end of life -- a kind of death dance.
With our economic crisis at a fever pitch, this age old debate about the normative role of government has taken on new connotations.
With Palin we encounter the purest example, in our lifetime, of a candidate whose mere presence on a national ticket demeans and pollutes the very process.

PBS Poll, Is Palin ready to be VP? http://www.pbs.org/now/polls/poll-435.html
I'm as disturbed by Palin's body language and pitch as anyone here but this article is annoying because it pretends to be scientific when it is just really biased and personal. I don't deny that the authors may have a lot of expert knowledge but there are numerous research studies on whether or not you can reliably tell that someone is lying and there is *no reliable way* to read that off their nonverbal behavior. If there would be, we wouldn't need witnesses and DNA evidence at court. Every speaker is different and their body language is dependent on their muscle activity, fatigue, breathing, mood, setting, addressee...you name it.
I guess crap like this sells as new to some people??? How about actual records. Palin's record is actually good. Why don't stop the crap and talk about substance. Is that too much to ask?
