How will McCain spin this Palin catastrophe pick with his POW experience?
We all know that the McCain campaign is in desperation mode and losing sleep tonight. It's been a while since they've pushed the POW talking point, so it's probably about that time; time to go back into that empty well. Only problem is, I don't see how they'll get the POW talking points in on this mess. Any ideas?

9. I've been losing it throught the day, every time I think about the Republicans nominating a
secessionist.

She isn't even subtle about it. There's all these answers that sounded weird at first, where she talked about what being a VP could do for Alaska, rather than the US, that now make perfect sense. Even the crazy flight home to have the kid born in Alaska makes some sense. The woman in fact sounds like an Alaskan supremacist.

John McCain, running on the slogan "Country First", picked a vice presidential candidate without vetting who turned out to be an Alaskan secessionist. Say that out loud, and try really hard not not to crack up before you've finished the sentence.

In addition the Republicans appear to be trying to hide their national convention so that no one will notice them. And even the nominee does not want to attend. And they pulled a name out of a hat, more or less, for the VP spot and nominated a fucking secessionist :rofl:

Obama made me cry with inspiration. McCain is giving me tears of laughter.

8. When his staff said she was vetted, he figured he could be soulmates with another veteran. nt
