The other side of the election is the massive fail for McCAIN and his ice queen, SARAH PALIN. The wheels are falling off this ride faster than I don’t know what. McCAIN will still be rich and since he is in the twilight of his life he can just return to the Senate and keep stealing money the way he has for the last two decades.
It doesn’t look like SARAH PALIN will be as lucky to retain her fiefdom. The G.O.P. vultures are swirling as you read this drop. They want to throw someone under the bus and it looks like it will be PALIN and her clan.
Strains Between McCain and Palin Aides Go Public. This story revolves around the charges that SARAH PALIN overextended the campaign budget for her wardrobe. I’m curious as to how one can spend so much and still look so frumpy. I know chicks that hit up the $10 dress spot on Dyckman and come out looking like video ho’s, er, models.
There have been charges flung from anonymous mouthpieces that PALIN could not identify the countries involved in NAFTA. That to me sounds like about more than half of this country. Our politicians are represntative of who we are, and what we are as a nation. Although SARAH PALIN did seem to just fall out of the sky she is by no means an anomaly of the American political body. That should be evident by the fact that her teenage daughter got pregnant.
Speaking of BRISTOL PALIN… Let’s see what happens with her “pregnancy” in another few months.
At the end of the day it is JOHN McCAIN who is to blame for not properly vetting his vice presidential nominee. I’m sure the McCAIN camp doesn’t want to hear that but just like the tagline for the website reads: You Can’t Handle The Truth.
“PALIN could not identify the countries involved in NAFTA. That to me sounds like about more than half of this country.”
Probably true. Which underscores that if McCain’s team was surprised by her lack of knowledge, they 1) didn’t know her too well, and 2) were out of touch with the American people.
It’s funny that now that it’s over they have no problem throwing her under the bus, then lifting her up and pushing her in front of the train.
What’s even more telling is that everyone knew she was a dunce, but they were cool putting a dummy on the platform and hiding her stupidity. Repugs should feel insulted. Those low intelligence folks are too stupid to feel dumb. They could have taken a picture of her and put flash cards under the image and people would have voted for it.
The Republicans need to recognize that American voters were tired of the negativity, the fear and the fact that they have failed our nation for the last 8 years. They can try to pin it on McCain’s poor choice of a running mate but it is what it is.
And heck yeah, if I knew my campaign was failing miserably….I might have tried to shop till I dropped too. She sold a plane on Ebay….I wonder what a few Chanel suits would go for? That might but a new snowmobile or two.
but=buy
This shit is getting funny. Seriously though, the aides may have been shocked that she didn’t know whether Africa was a country or a continent, but according to recent Republican rhetoric, that kind of distinction is for Northeast liberal elitist types.
Her selection and subsequent performance was a byproduct of the “aw shucks” anti-intellectualism that the party has been spewing for years. It’s nice to finally realize that the American people (or 53% at least, what the fuck is wrong with the other 47%?) decided that it probably wouldn’t be a bad thing to have a thoughtful, intelligent, and knowledgeable president at the helm.
It’s funny that i relaized recently how smart G Dubbz was because he found the touchstone of American stupidity and intersected it with Christian fundamentalism.
Aw shucks x God + no abortion = a formerly winning formula
But the difference is that most people would have used their context clues and thought N.A.F.T.A. = North American Free Trade Agreement = Mexico- United States – Canada. Bam context clues. Also she didn’t know that Africa was a continent!
To be fair, she can’t see Africa from her backyard.
The fact that W got 8 years in the most powerful office in the world just proves what a political idiot savant he truly was. The fact that he fucked those 8 years the fuck up proves how much of an idiot he was.
I’d still hit it.
I think the GOP honchos are trying to curtail any chances for Palin in 2012. Apparently Joe Lieberman is also on the chopping block.
This was definitely McCain’s last hurrah. Rest assured, There will be better GOP candidates in 4 years.
DP…GW didn’t figure that shyt out. It was Karl Rove. GW can’t figure out that today is Friday.
Leiberman got his ass handed to him yesterday. Brooklyn style.
My money says that within the next 18 months, Palin will go from the poster girl for the future of the GOP to reality show “star.” “Judge Palin,” anyone? The next Oprah (or, really, Tyra, without the need for wigs)? Or maybe – keeping my fingers crossed – she’ll be a future contestant on Rock of Love (Firstt Dude be damned)
Downside…since the Alaskan idiots re-elected Stevens and he’ll probably be expelled…she can appoint herself to his senate seat.
