Republicans Nervous About Palin
She was mayor of a small town 20 months ago, and if McCain/Palin somehow won she could be the president in 6 months. That math has Republicans like Ramesh Ponnuru, “one of the smartest guys writing on the National Review’s Corner” very worried. So is the macho bluster that you read from Republicans on this […]

I thought that his concluding statement, “whoever didn’t get picked for Republican VP today may be a lucky Republican”, would be interesting to […]

UPDATE II: Can you say clumsy?
Nice pick McCain: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPTMcs8wpHc[/youtube] This Palin (sounds like Failin’) just keeps getting better.
