Sarah Palin is McCain's running mate

I watched the speeches over the past couple of days and it's unsettling how the entire Republican strategy just seems to be attack, attack, attack, with no one addressing the important issues (economy, jobs, education, health care, Iraq & Afghanistan, etc.) that will make life better for all of us.

What's even more unsettling is watching all the delegates jumping up and down with joy and glee listening to all this negative crapola. Do they really understand what's going on around them?

Based on the many commentaries and op-ed pieces I've read, the media seems to be able to see through most of this, but I wonder how the average joe on the street is taking it all in?

Is it really possible that the only things most Americans care about is abortion, guns, and religion? I truly hope we're smarter than that, or at least have learned something from the last eight years.

I suppose we'll find out in a couple of months...
