WTF Is McStain Thinking?


The Republican's apparent nominee has decided to give the VP nod to the lady Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin.
She is a 44 year old mother of five who is also currently under investigation for abuse of power.

Under investigation for firing
But Palin’s seemingly bright future was clouded in late July when the state legislature voted to hire an independent investigator to find out whether she tried to have a state official fire her ex-brother-in-law from his job as a state trooper.


Snipped from MSNBC.

Although this might be a problem. we shall see if they can't get this squashed.


In picking Palin I have some questions here,
After hammering Obama on his youth and inexperience, explain to me how a soccer mom has the experience to step into the role of Commander In Chief of our Armed Services?

If she is already under investigation for abuse of power as a Governor, do we get to look forward to the young, attractive version of Dick Cheney?

By giving the nod to Palin, is the Republican strategy to try and continue wooing the PUMA vote?
Do they really take it to heart there are enough women in that demographic to make it worth while?

These are just off the top of my head.

Even though many of the speculated early choices were, in my opinion, not really viable, I would have to think they could have come up with someone with a bit more experience.

I think McCain just shit and stepped back in it.

This is going to be a hard sell to the base and he desperately needs that bunch of crazy motherfuckers permission to do anything anymore.

This could lead to a blood letting between factions in the Republican party who are already afraid of the Tsunami headed their way come election day.

I love it.

Popcorn anyone?

  3. She doesn't remind of Laura Roslin. She reminds me of Marlo Thomas for some reason.

    Anyway, don't underestimate this woman. Over at FDL, Edward Teller says she's great on TV. She's determined, and she actually has run governments, albeit small ones. This scandal about her brother-in-law strikes me as a bit out of step with most of what she's done. It might actually prove to be nothing. Of course, even if it is something it might just disappear anyway, thanks to how much control the GOP has of the state.

  5. I was thinking more of Roslin's rise to Power. Secretary of Education one day, President of the 12 Colonies the next.

    Resume:
    Runner-up Miss Igloo - 1999
    Mayor of Wherethefuck- 2005
    Governor of Left Overshoes- 2006
    Vice-President-2009
    President- 2009?

  6. Pandering to the conservative base may backfire if she decides to go on the campaign trail. She has 3 school aged kids
    and an infant with down syndrome.

    I'd like some popcorn too, please :)
