and does anyone really think that McCain/Palin would have done any better? Considering at what point the new president had to take over?

Hell, even the slightest thought of Palin being in charge in case McCain dropping dead makes me want to crawl under my bed.
I think McCain would've focussed harder on what's ailing the country rather than pushing through a party agenda like Obama has. Because McCain is older only means he's more experienced in life. I saw him speak on television a few nights ago and he looked fine. I thought McCain made an error by pandering to the H. Clinton voters with Palin.

Palin... That would be scary to a degree. Could she do a better job than Obama,in some respects I think so. She doesn't come from the Harvard elitist society.On the other hand,she has yet to make an impression on me. I think there are many other more capable females that could be president.
