    Maybe they took Palin to a Veterinarian

    Who discovered she has a cold wet nose, her innoculations are up to date, and her cloven hooves are in excellent condition.

    Oh yea, Palin knows how to deal with them tricky furriners. You can't let those pushy Canadians get away with a thing. We know their tanks are poised at our border, ready to make the move south at the least word from Ottowa! The minute there's a hint of danger, Alaska will secede from the Union!

    So much for the "disciplined campaign" myth for McCain. He bought the attractive packaging and now he's finding a disturbing ticking inside. Or maybe his geiger counter is crackling more insistently than he'd like. It's hard to know where to start, with this one. The vetting was sloppy and incomplete. A "questionaire!" Gosh, I'll bet she was sweating filling that out. Anybody care to guess how many interviews and meetings Joe Biden had before getting the nod from Obama?

    Frankly, Obama's ex-Pastor doesn't scare me nearly as much as Palin's current one.
