Sarah Palin And Tall
You must remember that book-turned-three-part-TV-movie-series where sad old Christopher Walken puts out an ad for a mail-order bride and gets a life-altering rejuvenation courtesy of Glenn Close. McCain's decision to make the conservative-Christian, pro-drilling Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin his running mate is basically like that—except that it's way more politically savvy.

Race to the Glass Ceiling
I will say this: it's fun that in four-odd years we've gone from all white guys running all the time to a situation in which the two major parties are competing to to be the most inclusive and forward-thinking (at least as far as race and gender are concerned).

Weezy
John McCain is so shameful that during the week he sent his beauty pageant wife to Georgia he met with another beauty pageant/ cheerleader and average hockey mom who is much younger than them both. It is clearly obvious that he planned to pick a man as his running mate until he realized that the democrats were UNITED during this weeks convention. Having met her only once before and placing his full faith in her plays out in my mind like a man who meets with a call girl once and becomes so fascinated with her that he hires her to be his personal assistant. This is a woman who not only stated that she doesn't know what the VP does, but that she doesn't think pollution and fossil fuel has anything to do with global warming. Mrs. Palin is completely and utterly out of touch which has nothing to do with her experience but goes to the core of her judgment. If experience means so much to how well one leads how did President Bush who is clearly incompetent remove Saddam Hussein who ruled Iraq for some 30-35 years. There are countless things that can be said about a man, woman or child who serves their country or community but experience alone doesn't account for critical thinking, calculation, ability or skill. Sure Mrs. Palin is the governor of Alaska, but it is one of the least populated states in the country and is a state with not much more industry other than oil, logging and fishing. If the republicans think that her being secluded up there on the Bering Sea makes her qualified to know the heartbeat of the mainland then I know the democrats welcome the fight. As for policies she is for overturning Roe v. Wade, drilling in ANWR, hunting endangered wildlife in Alaska, taking polar bear off the endangered species list, teaching creationism in schools and a whole host of other extreme positions. In addition she was for the bridge to nowhere before she won the governorship and then was against it, so woman yes, mother yes, neo-con yes, ready for the vice presidency, absolutely NO. No how, No way No McCain the republicans ought to be ashamed.
