    Why would anyone care about Palin's portfolio ..? We only care about Palin because of the slight chance the bimbo might be VP..God forbid.
    Yeah, she's Joe Sixpack ..Just like our village idiot prez was a "great guy to have a beer with" ...Why won't the electorate ever learn ? We are in crisis mode and will be for years to come ..Moose stew just won't get it ....Apparently, a portion of the electorate will never get it either !

    When I read mindless comments about a woman that ho one really knows, simply because she is John McCain's running mate, I wonder whether I live on the same planet as these posters, much less the same country.

    Forget the question of whether Palin or Biden a heartbeat away from the Presidency is a more frightening proposition. A Repubican colleague of mine, a Republican before that word meant neo-conservative, will not be voting for a Republican for the first time in his long life. His words: I can't think of a person (McCain) that I would least like to have the ability to launch nuclear weapons. He scares the livin' begeezus out of me.

    This debate isn't about Sarah Palin, her experience, her portfolio or who handles her finances. It's about John McCain and his choices.

    John McCain has demonstrated in the last few weeks a glimpse of that fear embdoied in my Republican friend's words. He saw our economy as "fundamentally strong" before he saw the need to suspend his campaign to save same economy, before he saw the need to attend the debate that he earlier had cancelled, before he saw the need to not suspend his campaign when the deal that he had sought to save the country had failed, but now it was OK to go ahead and confer with colleagues by phone when he criticized Obama for doing the same.

    That's all politics, but illustrative of McCain's state of mind.

    I could care less about Sarah Palin and her experience... fear John McCain.

    Congress should Stand up to Bush for once, and leave things alone. And let those fat cats fix their
    own corruptions.
    Always heard the more you stirred in Sh_t ! The
    more it stinks.

    The EWA, EWK, EWP combination looks like they are trying for a portfolio of anything but BRIC / Emerging Markets / Asia. EWP looks like a good choice in last year!
    The rest looks like good choices in a volatile market. Todd worked for BP so those shares probably came with the job.
    Someone should come out with a Palin ETF... or perhaps an Ultra-Short version?

    In-spite of the political and less than polite retorts, I'd say that IF she does indeed have a financial advisor, I'd find a new one. She's diversified but I'm not sure correctly.

    I'll judge her on her record in Alaska and the unrehearsed exchanges with people not the Gotcha' moments during interviews.

    What I find telling about Obama is his back peddling from the tax increases given our current state. McCain is either not getting good advise or shoots off his mouth just a tad too quick but over all I believe he's seriously got the countries best interests at heart.

    Just think, do you really want Biden a heartbeat away from the presidency? Just to liven things up a tad more, we all know who's third in line, Dear Nancy P. THAT is an officially scary thought.

    Why "Drill, Baby, Drill!" Does Not Translate Into Effective National Energy Policy [view article]
    AlexS, I would love to see any evidence for your belief that the position of the republican party and the Bush administration is not just Drill. Cripes, we're spending 10 billion a month fighting a war partly because that region is an important source of oil and we need control over it!
    Republicans have always advocated subsidizing the oil business, and fought subsidizing alternative energy. That is historical fact and you shouldn't deny it just because oil prices have suddenly gone up in the last year and it now looks dumb. A year ago you wouldn't have seen any reason to support alternative energy and neither would your party, because it doesn't look ahead.

    The virulence of Palin detractors suggests they fear her greatly. No matter the outcome of the pending election, she may be a force to be reckoned with in the future. I suppose if she had five abortions instead of five live children, this would have made her more acceptable to the elite. Reply

    What is Joe Bidens portfolio? What does he own after 30 years plus in the senate? SP may not have a great one, but then she hasnt been on the take for her whole life Reply

    So Kelly, you judge Gov. Palin from an interview with Couric instead of her performance as Governor? You shouldn't be taken seriously. Go back to answering phones at the abortion mill. Reply

    After the interviews with Couric, I can't believe Palin is taken seriously by anyone - including her family... Reply

    Just keep underestimating the Palins intelligence and common sense.
    The market is not their "day job" and their worth is balanced by other investments worthy of a school teacher's daughter married to a fisherman and oil worker with a growing family.

    Sarah is a born leader and has alot to give our country. I think her portfolio should be her own private business. Besides, in my opinion with her good looks, if she wanted to own fannie mae preferred (like I do) I wouldn't think any less of her. I obviously thought it was a good investment! My point is...we all have our reasons for what we invest in...and she does too! Reply
