1. wow 11000 posting!!

:popcorn: :popcorn:

[MindMatter]

11. Probably 80000 of them were Republicans who are now

throwing up their hands.

The most common words in GOP-land right about now are:

"What the hell was he thinking?"

[OneCarolinaGirl]

20. Cafferty

Cafferty was wound up tonight. He is an Obama supporter and makes no effort to hide it.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

24. It's nice when we have one on our side. Welcome to DU.

:hi:

[pedo]

28. i don't know about him being an obama supporter

i think he just hates bush like most of the country. and he's not stupid.

[Hope And Change]

2. LOL.I love Cafferty.He rocks!

[fascisthunter]

3. Lolololololo.... holy crap. That Was Too Funny.... Thanks McDummy

[Faygo Kid]

4. Excellent!

As usual.

[Kahuna]

5. Poor Wolfie didn't like to hear that news.

:applause:

[Turn CO Blue]

8. He's disappointed to possibly losing the close "horse race"

story that they love to push (so that their MK dept can sell tens of millions of dollars' worth of ads). As far as his personal politics, I suspect Wolf has a bit of a man-crush on Obama, actually.

[bjobotts]

6. Judgment is the issue not experience. Palin has neither

[bjobotts]

7. McCain would be screaming his head off if Obama did this.

[bjobotts]

9. Put her a hearbeat away? Shows McCain's judgment will never improve

[savistocate]

23. A less than healthy hearbeat away-----

[NM Independent]

26. Hey, you know you can put more than one line in a single post, right?

:hi:

[MindMatter]

10. It's the eskimo demographic, stupid

The Onion sucks. How come they didn't see this coming?

18. Is it a coincidence that the Repub convention in Minnesota is also where Pawlenty is from?

Since it has been rumored that Pawlenty was "it", I agree with one of the e-mails - this was a last-minute appointment and it was made inn desperation!

[Wetzelbill]

12. Compelling, interesting choice. It has people talking.....however

most people are talking because it's a horrendous foolish move! Wow, what a bonehead play. I'll give him credit for an interesting desparation move, but if he thinks women are so stupid they'll just go out and vote for any woman, McCain has some serious problems.

What's with the one email saying she has the same experience as Obama? 8 years in the Illinois state state senate and 4 years in the U.S. senate is a lot more than being Mayor of a small town and then having a year and a half as governor of a sparsely populated state.

[lumpy]

14. McCain wanted someone to divert the spotlight of of him,

however that doesn't change the fact that he excercizes poor judgement as usual.

[Wetzelbill]

15. sounds about right to me

[pokercat999]

35. Don't short change Gov. Palin, she was President of the

local PTA also!!!

:rofl:

McSame, stupid as a bush.

[Zambero]

41. Palin will do for McCain...

..what Ferarro did for Mondale. In 1984 women voters did not cast their votes based on gender, so what makes McCain think they will do so this time? Picking an unknown quantity with limited experience is a huge risk that is almost sure to backfire.

[CrispyQ]

48. "..a sparsely populated state."

As Jack put it, "Thirteen people & some caribou." Damn! Jack can be funny!

McCain's desperate. He wanted to get Obama/Biden & the whole dem convention out of the limelight. He succeeded, but this is one of those cases where you should be careful what you wish for.

[Politicalboi]

13. A Trophy VP

Thank You Mr. MaGoo.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

16. Wolf's deer-caught-in-the-headlights look at the end is priceless.

They're all coming home to roost and he bloody well knows it. :rofl:

[1Hippiechick]

17. It just came to me! It's "The Beauty and the Beast" ticket! LOL This is just TOO good to be TRUE!

[Jawja]

34. ROFLMFAO!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Liberal Gramma]

46. Good one! Hope the campaign picks it up

[CrispyQ]

49. Please, please, someone put that on a bumper sticker! -nt

[scarface2004]

19. cafferty rocks!

mcnotsane sucks!

27. McCain did not pick his running mate

she was picked by the party. McCain is not in charge of his own campaign. he is a puppet.

also this PROVES that all the experience attacks were TOTAL BULLSHIT.

[Chipper Chat]

31. That's what I was just telling a co-worker (night shift).

The Supreme Pubs belong to a consortium. They dictated the pick probably 15 minutes before McStupid announced it. Count in Bill Kristol, Rupturd Murdoch, George H W Bush, John Negroponte, James A Baker, Antonin Scalia - feel free to add to this list..........

[liberaldem4ever]

29. Go Jack Cafferty!

:yourock:

[and-justice-for-all]

30. Put a fork in'em...

their done! HAHAHA!

[ryanmuegge]

32. It's not a big deal other than the two positions are not even close in terms of importance.

Not even remotely. Also, the two individuals are not EVEN REMOTELY on the same level in terms of their personal achievements. Who do I want as the vice president, the person with a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Idaho or the editor of the Harvard FUCKING Law Review? Tough call.


No shit, guys. I wouldn't be surprised to see them change their minds about this.

[rndmprsn]

33. K+R this stinks of desperation.... PALIN=MIERS

[pipi_k]

36. The bluebirds and rainbows are fighting with the devil and his pitchforks.

My optimist (bluebirds and rainbows) side says, "Surely people can't be so stupid they can't see through a desperate move"

My pessimist (devils and pitchforks) side says, "There are still plenty of reeeeaaaalllly stupid people in this country"

sigh

I guess the least I can do is take away the weapons so neither side ends up doing mortal damage to the other

and then hope for the best....



PS...Jack Cafferty is THE MAN!!!!! Go Jack! :)

[bobd0]

37. "This could be ballgame over." -- Jack Cafferty

I don't always agree with Cafferty on issues but I totally agree with him on that statement. If the American people are willing to put an inexperienced, fundamentalist EEEvangelical wacko like Palin a heartbeat away from the presidency of the oldest person ever to run for the office then the American people are not only in for four more years (God forbid) they could very well be in for much worse.

Palin is an inexperienced far-right wing EEEvangelical fundamentalist wacko, and if America wants someone like her a heartbeat away from the presidency then America had better be prepared to accept the consequences.

[earthlover]

53. Palin should fire up all Democrats....and NOT because it is impossible she can be Pres....

Think of it! Palin as President. McCain squeaks by and wins the presidency. Months or years later McCain dies or is incompacitated. This should scare the bejesus out of us.

Instead of gloating that she is such a bad pick, we should be scared. Really scared. Obama and McCain are basically tied at this point. I would hope that Obama would get a bump from our convention, but so would McCain presumably.

It is hard to fathom someone like Palin actually sitting as president. Then again, it was hard to fathom our present dumbass president getting to be president too.... Just when we thought it couldn't get any worse than Bush....O.M.G.....

Let's not be complacent. McCain is scary enough. It is not enough to post on DU and be "with it". We have to get off our duffs and go to our Democratic Headquarters and volunteer for phone banking, organizing, etc. This is what will decide this election. Let's do it!

[ksimons]

38. Putin, I hope this helps put America's seriousness about our agenda to rest

We are a force to be reckoned with.



Oh, and by the way, this is who we think is right to be our second in command

[stlsaxman]

40. jesus- is that photoshopped?

please tell me it's not...

[ksimons]

42. picture

of course it's photoshopped LOL look how big her face is on that head LMAO!!! The issue she is in has Kate Bosworth on the cover. But I've seen this floating around on the pro-Palin websites. I think they did it themselves instead of waiting for others to do it first. But they did a weak job on it.

[ginnyinWI]

39. Saturday morning polls--Obama's up, McCain's down!

The gap between their electoral votes is widening! :)

http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/

[northernlights]

43. thanks for posting that!

Let's hope their polls are more accurate than their analysis of them. Specifically:

"What's interesting, however, is that while there is a gender gap in these numbers, it's not the one many observers were anticipating. Rather, along a variety of metrics, men like the Palin choice better than women....

Why does this gap exist? Don't know, but it may simply be a matter of ideology. Men are generally a bit more conservative than women, and opinions of Palin are very strongly determined by ideology."

Wrong, boys. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. You're thinking with your wrong heads...again. Try looking at her qualifications. All none of them.

[Sander]

44. Just a few women who McSame could have picked instead

Current Republican Women Senators http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_the_United_States_Senate

Lisa Murkowski, AK
Olympia Snowe, ME
Susan Collins, ME
Elizabeth Dole, NC
Kay Bailey Hutchison, TX

Current Republican Women Governors http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_female_state_governors_in_the_United_States

Linda Lingle, HA
M. Jodi Rell, CT

I wonder how they all feel about George McSame's judgement about now?

[earthlover]

54. Dole would have been a great pick.

Instead McCain selects Palin?

Her mindset is a fossil. Palin-tology.

[bagimin]

45. Trophy wife.....trophy running mate..

makes sense.

[pleah]

47. K&R Wolf looked like he was in total disbelief! LMAO!

Just proves that the media shills aren't putting a dent in the turn the country is taking.

[HughMoran]

50. McPOW's got the Eskimo vote in the bag!

[ejbr]

51. The dodo head who claims that Palin & Obama have the same experience

is missing a very, very important point. By chosing her, McCain just conceded that experience doesn't matter, so Obama's inexperience should no longer be a campaign issue. The fact that both tickets have someone with "inexperience" removes this weapon from the repig arsenal. Even worse for them is McCain's age. He and Obama were the ones chosen by the electorate, not Biden or Palin. Do voters want to vote for her, someone who did not demonstrate her abilities as Obama did?

Not only that, with five kids, I think she fucks too much. :P

[Frisbee]

55. Seriously now...

can it EVER be too much? :rofl:

[ejbr]

56. "Point" taken! n/t

[shagsak]

52. Nailed It!
