This is extremely far-fetched, sci-fi speculation:
- McCain picks Palin knowing she is a terrible choice, but one that will be hailed by social conservatives
- he knows that this choice will completely demoralize the social conservatives once the rest of the country finds out what a trainwreck she is
- after a few days, she pulls out of the race and the social conservatives cry and melt into a pile, giving McCain the leverage to...
- select Joltin' Joe Lieberman!!!!!
I think it's far fetched because the next step is:
- world yawns, votes Obama
But I'm running out of possibilities as to why McCain would make this massive of a mistake, other than he's really lost his marbles, or everybody on the left is completely misperceiving the electorate these days.
My money says he's lost his f-ing marbles.
