Comments on: Friday Poll: Which tech gadget is Palin?

Vote in our weekly poll: If Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin were a tech gadget, which would she be?

All of these are *^$#, patronizing and insulting. It would be funny if you didn't seriously think any of them were apropos. If anything, Barack Obama is the talking picture frame. He has about as much depth. Quite frankly there hasn't been a candidate from the major parties in the last 100 years that is less qualified to be president. And that includes Bill Clinton. At least Bill Clinton had 12 year as a governor (though of the poorest and most ignorant state in America). Governor Palin, for all the hick, Northern Redneck, moose-jockey missiles you may throw at her, is as qualified for president as Barack Obama, yet she's hoping only to be second-in-command, not the one with her finger on the button.

If someone as flaky as Rosie O'Donnell were Obama's running mate you'd be defending her like the Russians at Stalingrad. With a straight face you'd tell us Obama's a man of change and his female running mate is a symbol of progress. Yet when a conservative woman runs you're like Heinrich Kramer wanting to burn her at the stake for daring to aspire to anything but being the finger-puppet governor of a backwater state.

I'd say you should be filled with shame but that'd be assuming you could feel any.

The difference is that Palin is a moron and Obama isn't.

Disgusting and disrespectful.... it's plain to see the leanings of who's running CNET!

Sarah Palin: Hi I am from Oxfordshire England, so I will not get involved in your politics, however speaking as someone who sees many artificial politicians it was refreshing to see a sincere one, I find it even more strange that many in the US seem not to like her, because she seems to be a cross between Mrs Thatcher and Tony Blair and the Queen of hearts lady Di, who you Americans seemed to love and admire so much.

I am 52 and like most people I can spot all the snake oil salesmen a mile off even though they think you cant see through their false image, I pride myself I being able to spot the real deal from a mile off, and in my opinion she is it the real deal, they say your first instinct is the right one, in this case the Americans were to trust their first instincts.

Still if you don?t want her send her over to the UK, have you seen our politicians.

[skillingssucks]

Trust me when I tell you that your "snake oil salesman" spotting skills aren't what you think they are.

Palin is more like Audrey, that kitchen counter web computer from a few years back with quick popularity and even quicker demise.

[RuralPhoneGuy]

Veg-a-matic.

[camorthett]

your all nuts.

[innamaze]

It would have to be a GPS, so she can find her way home after a moose hunt.

[Heebee Jeebies]

She is none of those. First she isn't a tech gadget she just isn't that cool. The apple newton had more to offer. Second what she is is a pig with lipstick. She is a joke of major proportions. She can't even keep her un-married 17 year old from getting knocked up. How is she going to run a country when coot McCain drops dead. She can't. She has all of the experience of a reindeer.

Not that Obama is a prize either. Like the last 10 elections we seem to keep getting candidates from what used to be the reject pile. The only reason people like Obama is he is black. America can finally prove we think of black folk the same as white folk and that we be let'en or slaves free now boss!

Basically we are going to go from one joke administration to another joke administration, that makes American's and even bigger joke because you all (not me I am not voting this time around) voted for him just like enough of you voted to get Bush in for a second term.
