There has certainly been a huge amount of comment around the Palin pick. As I said over at No Minister.
I have certainly been entertaining myself over at hard news(we are over 500 comments & counting), so guilty as charged your honour.
I think the single thing that defines if is that Palin & the reason she is on the ticket took on corruption in her own party and won.
Obama would be an interesting but risky choice for the world. I dont like his 130 high indecision and I dont like his attitude to trade.
Insofar as how it impacts. We are all citizens of the world. I have ties to 3 countries, one of which was liberated from oppression by the US of A. I like what McCain has to say about improving democracy.
Hi Phil,
been reading yr comments at policynet. I post there these days and meet a 'your comment is being moderated' - effecting elimination. My only honest conclusion is that BS (et al) is supersensitive to my style of direct and deft facts. Then, of course, as BS says, policynet is not a democracy.. so producer takes all.
Anyway, if you can spare the time I'd welcome your visit to series of mine The Skinny on Banking - the latest episode "Curtains UP!!!" is now onsite. As a backgrounder working to most relevance to all participants and interested parties election 08 I'd say it was very useful in helping explain how and why policies are implemented. Gee, hope that isn't pompous!
C'mon by, take a look, let me know what you think.. Zin
