    Slider

    When I saw Palin speak at the RNC, I hated the message, but knew she was going to be a force in the campaign.

    Not likely.

    Americans don't want an over-the-hill sex object for vice president. McCain's strategists have overestimated the stupidity of the US electorate.

    Palin herself would be quick to point out that her real outfits are red, not black.

    McCain: "I just know she's gonna get give me a heart attack."
