Or perhaps when he says "by the time she's sworn in" as president?

Defending your running-mate's qualifications is not where you want to be 1 1/2 weeks before the election.

Mustang, that was my thought too, in which case Schwarz meant "probably never."

how qualified does one need to be to dismantle 250 years of democracy? she is the rightwing wet dream. Like Bush, she is a true wingnut: dumb- like a fox.

Or defending her wasteful spending, abuse of power, or outrageous rhetoric. And yet I have Republican friends who think McCain's problem is that he is running a terrible campaign. I guess somehow he would make better decisions if only he were elected.

So apparently 2 whole months is the difference between being ready, among a myriad of other issues, to solve a looming economic crisis, and fix the mess Iraq & Afghanistan, and not.

Of course, by January 20, she'll be so qualified that the people who'd test Obama wouldn't even dream of testing her.

Live long, John. Live long.

OMG! Has anyone watched that Think Different 2009 spot!

Is that a spoof or is that for real? Are the McCain supporters now trying to tell us that crazy people make the best leaders?
More on this please.

Palin has shattered McCain's credibility. Is she going to shatter the entire floor of what remain's of the GOP's credibility?

Nevermind about the Think Different Ad. I see they made one for both parties. the Dem one makes sense, the Repub one is LOL if it wasn't so damned scary.

Arnold the Bodybuilder turned Actor!

McCain's a real man of the people.

I give Arnie credit. He is like any other relatively intellegent person, who would have trouble defending her with a straight face ala McCain or Rick Davis. Even McCains heart doesn't seem to be in it.

"By the time she's sworn in"?

And since McCain isn't going to be elected, she'll never be sworn in.

Does this mean she'll never be ready?

I'm no Schwarzenegger fan, but he's become more centrist by necessity and doesn't toe the strict party line any more. There was a time when the GOP wanted to change the Constitution for this guy. I haven't heard any talk of that lately....

I think the bottom line is that Schwarzenegger has seen the same polls we have, and he can postulate all he wants on her preparedness, because he knows it ain't gonna happen.

Schwarzenegger seemed very uncomfortable. Its like the establishment Republicans want to stay as far away from this mess as they can. The only Republicans really going all out in public support are the lunatic fringe (Bachmann, Marcia Stirman....) Look at what is turning up at McCain/Palin appearnaces: the bottom feeders. On November 5th the Republican Party willhave to look at a grim future with a base thais is toxic. there will be a real war for the soul of that party, and I think that's why so much of the Republican establishment is all but in hiding. None of them want the stink of this campaign on them the day after.

Well they made a deal with the Devil years ago and now they'll have a real fight on their hands trying to get out of it, but its clear, the rabid right wing conservative christian/bigots they used to great effect in the past is no longer quite so golden.

Oy. That was the line Hillary used about Obama... when she was running AGAINST him.

By then she'll have read all of John Jakes' Kent Family Chronicles.

"I think she is the most qualified of any that has run recently for vice president," McCain added. "I'm amazed. I'm amazed."

My jaw dropped open. Does anyone else squirm with embarrassment when McCain does this? He's delusional! She's not ready for office? HE'S not ready for office

Prove positive that, when the camera's rolling, Arnold can't act to save his life.

Weird thing is, overall I've been pretty impressed with Arnold's performance as governor. Overall. And this little bobble shows that, unlike a typical republican politician, he has a conscience. He's as worried as we are about Palin.

"ready by the time, she is sworn in"

Takes that long to order a Mr Coffee maker? Or to master it's useage?

With the monetary problems of the Double Talk campaign, perhsps, they have had to put it on layaway.

"I did not want that to end last night ... I didn’t want the night to end. I didn’t want Rudy to stop. What a night! Folks, we have a future beyond November here. Regardless what happens.... The convention has been unified on the basis of conservatism. Properly executed, beautifully articulated.

Believe me, Barack Obama has a lot to fear today and he knows it ... the drive-bys are in panic, the Democrat Party is in panic, the liberal left is in panic ... they do not know who hit them, they do not know how to respond to this.

This lady has turned it all around ... from now on, on this program John McCain will be known as John McBrilliant."

Rush Limbaugh after the Republican Convention, speaking about Sarah Palin.

Arnold never was a very good actor.

New course on how to be president offered here.

First, just how unprepared does someone have to be for Arnold Schwarzenegger to consider them to be a little light in their background????

Second, given that recent Republican presidential and vice presidential candidates have included Dan Quayle, Ronald Reagan, and G.W. Bush, I can understand how McCain might be surprised by the public's current resistance to Sarah Palin. It would have been useful for the electorate to have had standards many elections ago, but better late than never.

Since the Governator spewed forth an accidental truth, do we call it a "gaffe"?

Could Bob Barr work a little harder at getting endorsements from people like him?
Senator John Warner endorsed an independent when gunrunner and radio entertainer Oliver North ran fr Senator as the Republican nominee.

I would suspect that, just like Carly Fiorina, Arnie would get purged as well.

Cam-Bell cum wit me if yoo want to live! ( spoken in pure arny/terminator venacular)>I can't handle much more from this campaign.It's too funny.Tusla sniper fire,Get smart cone of silence,moose burgers,joe the unlicensed plumber,Tina fey and now the governator? On Nov.4th I may be wheeled to the polls in a hospital bed. :)

As Julius Caesar said when he was stabbed to death: "Et tu, Brute?" Poooor Joe Lieberman, shunned or betrayed by Democrats, Republicans and McCain alike. See this great cartoon at the Word Face-Off blog!

Do you know the real reason that Maria Shriver married Schwarzenegger?

They're trying to breed a bullet-proof Kennedy.
