McCain And Palin Would Be Laughed Out Of Europe
McCain with a limited degree of integrity may scrape 10 percent of a vote in Europe, but because of Palins reactionary views on religion ie 4000 year old world and heavily biased towards creationism to the point of censorship of other views in schools. Palin's foreign policy would also make Europe cringe ie warmongering with Russia! She would be laughed if not chased out of Europe

It's of no importance now that the election has been won, but I just wanted to add my two cents anyway. Maybe they would have been laughed out of Europe, but who cares. Do you really think that is of any consequence?

What are you talking about. They are laughing at them right now. Gordon Brown already said that America would be the American of old if Obama was the President.

Well, the Europeans wouldn't respect them, I'm sure of that, so yes they would be a national embarrassment. But despite protests, no one ever laughed George Bush out of Europe so that probably wouldn't happen with McCain/Pallin either.

I must point out some inaccuracies in your assertion.

First of all you state that Sarah Palin believes that the world is 4000 years old. This was a rumor started as a joke by a blogger but some people took it as fact and spread it around. Look up a story that CNN did in September about a blogger named Bob Salsbury for proof.

You also state that Palin wants to censor her way into creationism being the only view taught in schools. This is also incorrect. For proof look up an article written by Dan Joling of the Associated Press headlined "Palin has not pushed creation science as governor". The title should say it all but it is worth mentioning that Palin's own kids go to this public school system.

I don't know where your assertion about Palin's warmongering with Russia comes from.I would appreciate a cited source to back up that claim.

Your assertion that McCain-Palin would not do well in Europe is correct but not for the reasons you give and I have cited news sources that are well known to have a liberal bias for proof.

I believe that the real reason is that they are jealous of American prosperity and would like to see us slow down a bit so that they can catch up. Thus, they support the candidates who they perceive to be more likely to stifle our economy with socialist policies.

Who cares what the heck Europe thinks?

This is ridiculous beyond description. Mccain OR Obama, They would still be OUR president and I would not care what Europe thought of it.

Europe will probably be a LOT more accepting of Palin's 'warmongering' when Russia invariably tries to extend it's umm...'influence'.

 that's the kind of attitude that we europeans have come to expect from america. please stay out of the world. I personally would not like to be dragged into an imperialist american war against Iran or Russia or anywhere really.
And when the Usa next tries to extend its.. influence it should expect a bit more resistance.
