This is an act of cunning and desperation. John McCain has been watching too much MSNBC and Fox.
His decision is more sexist than any of Obama's perceived slights against Hillary Clinton. McCain actually believes that just because Palin is a woman, all of Hillary's followers will jump on his bandwagon.
This confirms what a disaster a McCain presidency would be.
Gov. Palin's nomination is an outrageous insult to her, too. McCain is literally whoring Palin out for votes from misguided women and religious right-wingers.
That Palin accepted McCain as her pimp confirms her naivete and lack of qualification for the job.
It is also an insult to the office of the Presidency of the United States. It shows such a lack of respect for what the Presidency used to represent that I am rendered speechless.
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, in this single act, McCain has truly exceeded the combined gall of every destructive act committed by the Bush Administration during the last eight years.
If McCain and Palin are elected in November, the United States of America will never recover.
I suppose we should not be surprised - this is the same guy who dumped his sick wife for a rich younger model.
The "fair and balanced" media will give us their version of "both sides" of this story. The dutiful red-state rednecks will fall in line like good little sheeple, all the way to the slaughter.

God help us all...
