Sarah Palin served one purpose
to change the topic of conversation from a strong, unified Dem party with a once-in-a-generation leader to absolutely anything else.

Is it any more complicated than that?

3. Nah.

Just a meat headed attempt by the GOP not only to shore up their base but clinch a shedload of female voters, too.

Instead, it's made McCain look like the political equivalent of a messageboard joke character and caused everyone to take stock of just how markedly superior Obama looked last week. :rofl:

2. Maybe not, but we'll still have Obama at the end of the week. Palin, maybe not.

4. For her next trick, she shoots Joe Biden on live TV, skins the carcass...
...fries it up in a pan, and never, ever lets you forget you're a man.

5. that could be true
