Y'know... that John McCain is a real asshole. Bigtime.
Edited on Sat Nov-01-08 10:59 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
I loved watching him essentially concede the election on SNL while throwing Sarah Palin under the bus.

But then I thought... this guy is running to the head of the line to blame his anticipated humiliating loss on Sarah Palin for being a freaking moron.

But he PICKED her.

He intentionally picked a dumb-ass RW kook to help HIMSELF and when his strategy didn't work out he's blaming her for being a dumb-ass RW kook.

What a jerk!

3. I was really shocked - he utterly humiliated Palin
It really was degrading. Wife and I were simultaneously entertained and stunned.

5. He'll do a tell all after the election
explaining how the rightwingers in the party basically held him hostage, either they got their way or they destroy the convention.

7. Palin will be the one to tell all. She has no social awareness and will not give consideration
to the political game. Plus, I doubt she could ever keep a secret.

13. It would seem the GOP wouldn't let him pick someone competent 'cuz they're all pro-choice.
But, he signed up for the gig. That's what the GOP is, nowadays- completely controlled by mouth-breathing, creationist crazies and would-be uterus cops.

15. He had the power to say no to them and did not. So, he picked her.

16. I'm not sure McCoward has any power in the Republican party. They've never liked him, really.
He sold his soul to them. He has no soul. He has no credibility. And he is a coward!
