McCain's big running-mate rollout

Romney and Giuliani helped supply Wednesday night's "paranoid" conservative politics, while Sarah Palin showed she's no Dick Cheney.

    I work with a bunch of working class men -

    most of them older than 50. Most of them are immigrants. I am very pleased to announce that while most of them had planned on voting for McCain BEFORE Palin was put on the ticket, NONE of them will now vote for McCain. They see Palin as an affirmative action hire - and an incompetent one at that.

    The SCGLM is so busy wondering how many swing voters Palin will bring, they are completely ignoring the working class men who think she is a tramp, an unfit mother who is neglecting her children, and someone who has been placed in the VP slot because of her gender.
