“She is a governor, the most popular governor in America. I think she is the most qualified of any that has run recently for vice president.”
- John McCain tells Don Imus, on those who criticize Sarah Palin's qualifications to be President of the Unites States
Ok, so for those of you stuck in a time warp, or disconnected from Politics due to the (fill in the blank), let's dissect this quote, and see if 51% of it would sway you to voting for him.
1. She is a governor - YES. This is true. He gets a percentage for that.
2. The most popular governor in America. - Unsubstantiated, unprovable. Hype. - DING, he loses points for this. Now, let's try to help him out by saying...how many people turn up for a Palin rally? The most recent rallys look to be in small venues (parking lots of malls and stuff) and there might be 5,000 people. Barack Obama had something like 30,000 show up at a rally this weekend. I also saw on CNN, where they were broadcasting live...all four rallys (biden, obama, palin, mccain) in 4 states...and one reporter said, and I KID YOU NOT, that a McCain campaign worker asked her to come inside and help 'fill the room' because they didn't have a very large crowd. The reporter declined, stating she was a member of the media. The man smiled and walked away (probably to change panties because you know he ______ himself) knowing that was going to make on National news, which it did, right to my bedroom in Vallejo, California! HA! Ok I digress..let's get back to the dissection.3. I think she is the most qualified of any (governor) that has run recently for vice president. Mmm...let me think about that...what Governor ran as a vice-presidential running mate? Dont' say Bush or Clinton because they both ran as governors for PRES, not VP. Gore, Edwards (senator) Bush Cheney (old cabinet member), Kerry/??? who was that? In any case, I think I have made my point. It was a weird point because RECENTLY there have been no governors running for VP.
4. He was talking to Don Imus, who was fired for being a racist fool. What campaign worker booked that deal. That's like Obama going on Limbaugh. Come ON? Well I think that's even worse.
Ok, so I guess I am just so surprised at how fearful I am about Republicans still running the country. I'm worried about the cabinet he'd pick...how many markers over the last 35 years in Senate are going to get called in by his cronies, etc.
Lord please let Obama win. Lord, don't pick up that phone when Palin calls, she's just drunk dialing you I'm sure.
