So what do you want to hear from Sarah Palin, John McCain’s VP pick?
When I put that question to the social networks tonight he’s how you answered.
Make sure to make some noise and add your comments to the blog.
stevenpitts: @tvamy Palin isn’t that great of a speaker from what I’ve heard so far. maybe she’ll be more articulate tonight.
jameskm03: @tvamy she (palin) needs to move beyond the personal issues and talk about her political background and positions
iamdave: @tvamy I’d love to hear her dismiss this whole pregnancy, and ask the media not to treat her daughter like Jamie Lynn Spears.
janellevadnais: @tvamy…(contd.) how it will affect her ability to step up to the plate . Will she put the country’s needs first or her kids?
orangejack: @tvamy Sarah Palin should say “The buck stops with McCain - but if that buck gets past him, I’ll shoot it!” :-)
gpittman: @tvamy I don’t live in Charleston anymore (moved 2 months ago), but I still have a house for sale there. Been difficult to know what to do.
janellevadnais: @tvamy…I would like to hear how Palin will address the issue of her being a mother of 5 children and how this will affect her ability ...

Oh well said Caroline… well said. I think also addressing what the left is saying and addressing it head on. No dancing around with fancy words or slogans.. just the facts…

I think that Sarah just needs to tell everyone how she really feels because that’s what the american people want to hear. We are tired of all these politicians saying things just to impress us but have no intentions of really doing them. I believe that she represents what a true American really is and will be a great vice president in the years to come.

I do feel that her daughter being pregnant shouldn’t be a part of the political campaign, however it will be because she is a teen and she is pregnant. Lets address the situation and move on…thats wonderful that she is marrying the father but she is still a teen!!!! We just watched WSPA do a whole series on the subject, its on the uprise and it isn’t acceptable. Though she may do a great job as a VP, and I am sure she will if elected, at least make a statement on the issue other than she is pregnant and will be marrying the father…if we don’t want the “common” people to have pregnant teens, what does it say to society that the next possible VP has a pregnant teen. Where does she stand on this issue, as it is one that we face and trying to fight on a daily basis? Do we overlook her daugher? No, we can’t be with our children at all times, we can only hope that they take the morals and values we teach them as parents and use them. In this case, her daughter didn’t. I am just really uneasy about this situation. It may not affect her ability to be VP, but what is her home life telling society? And unfortunately, if chosen her home life will be in the spot light.
