How do you compete against the first black presidential candidate? You tap that p**sy!
Crude, I know, but I’m allowed these jokes. When you own a vagina, it allows you certain liberties:
Give it to us CNN:
Sen. John McCain on Friday announced Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his vice presidential candidate, calling her “the running mate who can best help me shake up Washington.”
“She’s exactly who this country needs to help me fight the same old Washington politics of me first and country second,” the presumptive Republican nominee said at a Dayton, Ohio, rally of about 15,000 supporters, who welcomed the surprise pick of the relatively unknown politician with cheers and flags.
“She’s got the grit, integrity, good sense and fierce devotion to the common good that is exactly what we need in Washington today,” McCain said.
Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Palin
Palin, 44, told the crowd, “To have been chosen brings a great challenge. I know that it will demand the best that I have to give and I promise nothing less.”
Palin is a first-term governor who unseated incumbent Gov. Frank Murkowski in the Republican primary in 2006 and went on to defeat former Gov. Tony Knowles, a Democrat, in the general election.
She will be the first woman to be nominated for vice president as a Republican and only the second to run for vice president on a major party ticket, after Democrat Geraldine Ferraro in 1984.
Palin also will be the first Alaskan to be on the ticket for either party.
I was actually a bit shocked by the choice as such a blatant gimmick. I mean really, what better way to compete against the first black presidential candidate than to tag team with a woman? If America thought they had come to terms with their highly suppressed sexism and racism guilt, I can’t WAIT to see what level it’s taken to now!
Ironically, I think his choice will make feminists across the nation’s blood curl.
UPDATE: Bloomburg gives us more information about who this Sarah Palin chick is:
Palin has a strong anti-abortion record. She is a member of Feminists for Life, a group that works to make health-care and child-care resources available to “pregnant or parenting students,” according to the group’s Web site.
Palin, a former beauty queen, high school basketball star and television sportscaster, began her political career in the 1990s as a city councilwoman and then mayor in her home town of Wasilla. The town’s estimated population in 2007 was 9,780, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
Earlier this year, Palin threatened to evict Exxon Mobil Corp. and its partners BP Plc, Chevron Corp. and ConocoPhillips from a state-owned gas field, winning a promise from them to boost Alaska’s natural-gas output by 17 percent.
Palin hasn’t been implicated in the four-year-old federal corruption investigation, which has resulted in convictions of or guilty pleas from three state legislators, Murkowski’s former chief of staff and two executives of an oil-services company, as well as the indictment of Senator Ted Stevens.

Kinda makes his Hillary commercial make a little more sense doesn't it?
By grabbing up a woman as his veep, he can cash in on all the "wormen scorned" by Hillary not getting the nomination or the tap for veep in Obama's campaign.
Sharp move that'll likely draw in a few votes from those who don't view it as anything by a gimmick.

Yes, I actually gave up voting a while ago but my vagina is considering switching parties because of the McCain running mate who it turns out ALSO has a Va-J-J. I'm pretty vexed about this because she's anti-choice. Just because she has a vertical smile doesn't mean she'd be a good VP or President if something happened to the Pres.
Other notes of interest: as everyone points out her son Track (yes that's his name) will be shipping off to Iraq soon and her youngest daughter has Down Syndrome. Oh… wait, that has nothing to do with her politics… although I bet it made her great in the PTA where she got most of her experience in politics.
I heard last night from a coworker (but have yet to confirm) that her husband is a BP big wig, and she wasn't elected to governor's office by popular vote, it was a default of some kind?? I dunno… I figure we'll hear all sorts of candidate trash talk and skeleton-in-the-closet info so it'll come out if it's so…
Good article..However my Va J-J totally wrote about it first… hmmm actually I think you beat me to it. Dang. Yes you did.. I wrote my blog on Sat. You're so on top of the news… and your commentary is amusing. You're like a female ex-army probably cuter Jon Stewart.
