You know, I look at this Palin pick as a ploy to attract Hillary voters
with the same disdain in which I viewed picking Clarence Thomas to replace Thurgood Marshall.

That's my three cents.

1. It's about as dumb as if McAncient had picked Alan Keyes to attract black voters.
And about as insulting.

6. at work yesterday, in the ladies room, a colleague was gushing
and commented to me "how wonderful it would be to have a female vp".

I responded that I wan't impressed.

She came back with this B.S. about how Palin was "governor of the biggest state in the union".

I looked at her, was about to go off, but thought better of it.

A couple minutes later, another colleague who was in the stall listening, came in to my office, closed the door and bust out laughing.

I said I wanted to commend Palin on her support from the caribou coalition, but thought better of it.

Moral of the story: some dumb fuckers are actually falling for it.

Love you back :)

:hi:

9. She would have voted for McCain even if Hillary was our nom.

Count your money on that. They'll gush and most woman will vomit.

Palin has had a profound effect on me too. I have completely forgiven Hillary for that primary nonsense.

I think I REALLY want to see Hillary mop the floor with her in a debate. It'd be like watching the Queen Alien take apart a Disney Princess. They'd need a squeegee to clean her off the podium.

4. I think it also has to do with making further headway into ANWR
An inroad to the oil and money trail, and an inexperienced, malleable politician who can easily be manipulated by those who will pretend to be leaving OUR White House, and staying the hell out of OUR government.

11. it's also a ploy to attract Republican voters, since McCrap is a little unpopular in that corner

maybe they'll show up for a Fundie who'll promise to make Bible Study mandatory in middle school.
