oselleJohn McCain has just selected Alaska governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate.
I don't know anything about Palin and I don't want to know anything about her. As far as I'm concerned, this is a smoke-and-mirrors act. She was chosen solely to take some of the rich old geezer stink off of McCain, to make him look a little more hip and, I'm sure, in the hopes of luring away some of those supposedly disgruntled Hillary Clinton supporters (because all they wanted to do was vote for a woman -- any woman -- right?)
I don't give a shit who McCain's running mate is, he's still the guy who'd be president. Everything about McCain is wrong for this country. Everything. He's a hot-headed liar, a filthy rich old country-clubber, golf-carting around in Ferragamo loafers while the country rots and claiming, nope, nuthin' wrong here! He has no knowledge of and zero interest in the lives of the vast majority of Americans and he has no ideas and nothing to offer except four more years of decline, decay and destruction. And if the citizens of this country are stupid enough to elect him...what can I say? They deserve what they get. I'm just sorry I'm gonna be getting it along with them.
