I think he is going to get more than his fair share of experience dealing with the oil disaster and how bad it is hurting LA...
Good point.

I don't think most people needed the media to tell them what to think of Palin. Her pettiness, her sneering, her utter meanness, and her fatuousness did it for most.
People vote for president, not vice president. I agree with you about Bobby Jindal.
Oh, come on. Don't you really mean she's a Conservative Christian Republican and that's the most evil being on Earth?
I love you Sam. You are funny as can be.
He certainly couldn't have done worse than Bush.

I wish Bobby Jindal would just STFU. He complains the government won't authorize any help yet he has had permission to use 6000 National Guard troops but only chose to use 15% of them. His state's coastline is covered in black goo but he wants to punch more holes in ocean floor not giving a damn that it is affecting wildlife and coastlines in the three states to the east including Florida that doesn't have rigs and doesn't want them. Thousands of businesses, the jobs that go with them and a way of life are being destroyed but his only concern is his state is losing a few jobs on the 1% of rigs affected by the moratorium. You may not like Obama but at least he never ran away from his given name. If a hurricane comes I wish they would stuff Jindal in the hole to plug it till the storm passes.[/QUOTE

I think that in good times there's probably a tiny percentage of the voting population that let's the VP candidate affect their choice because if things are going well, why make much of a change.
In bad times (like the last election) or when all of the presidential choices available are dismal (like last time) it probably matters more because if you can't find a reason to vote for either candidate you look to the VP.
That being said, in the last election BIden got a free pass from the media while Palin got a lot of attention.
