McCain is not only going to keep Palin, he is STUCK with her.
No other repub in their right mind (I know, I know) would sign on as McCain's running mate at this late date.

7. I could just see it...
Leiberman commenting that both VP's were Joes and laughingly pointing out he's the Joe with the JOEMENTUM!!

2. Regardless of whether or not he couldn't get another taker, I think the flap
of him changing horses in the middle of the stream would be devastating to the party.

So I hope it happens. :evilgrin:

Like a befuddled old man who got his shoes on the wrong feet.

4. I think Ghouliani is chomping at the bit to step in...
and he is NOT in his right mind, as we know.

6. Fundies in the GOP have turned out to be like Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.
Once the crazy lady is in your bed, there's no getting rid of her.

10. Either her, or Christine Whitman
He'd never accept Meg Whitman as his running mate because she doesn't know how to run a business the Republican way: eBay, last I checked, is still in operation.

12. Yes, he knows that it would only doom his election chances even more if he admitted that Palin was a
mistake. She's here for the long haul, folks and we should be happy about it.
