I just watched this video of Matt Damon discussing the scary possiblity of Palin becoming president if something should happen to McCain (let's face it...he is 72 already). I haven't seen much of the media on TV discussing this possiblity, outside of the interview with Gibson where he said " are you REALLY ready to possibility take over the presidency if need be?" Obviously she said yes because she's on national television, but if Americans stop and think for a minute, and get over the "excitement" of a woman VP, then maybe they would realize how ridiculous this is. I believe the medias coverage of the VP debates will play a huge role in really showing who Sarah Palin is. At least I hope it does, because we need to be looking at her experience and her policies, not her mothering skills. What I'm wondering is, if even FOX news is fed up with the lies, then why are Americans still supporting Palin/McCain? Do they really think Palin has the experience, and that McCain can bring about the changes this country needs? Or are they simply angry at the way the media is playing around with the election so they are just sticking to their parties roots?

I'm just hoping these upcoming debates turn things around and back to the issues.
