WTF, McCain FTW?

He's totally pulled a mental rabbit out of the hat here. John McCain has picked 44 year old Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his VP running mate. She's a "reformer" (which doesn't mean anything in the GOP), is younger than Obama, a former beauty queen, and a cynical choice who will undoubtedly help to drag across disenfranchised Hillary fans to the dark side. Hillary fans. How the world could do without them.

"In a moment of seriousness, I've gone and picked a nobody"

Anyway she's not all she's cracked up to be. An opponent of abortion rights, a member of the NRA (and avid hunter no less), and someone who - lets face it - wouldn't have stood a chance of being picked if McCain wasn't so desperate. Or so serious. Plus her kids have worse names than the Romneys: Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper and Trig Paxson Van.
