Libertarians should be pleased. I lived in Alaska for five years. It's the most libertarian state in the union. It has an equal rights amendment and a right to privacy written into the Constitution.
He picked an attractive running mate? What happened to Palin? She was just barely announced this morning! McCain is a flip flopper.

Are you going to post that Palin looks old after she speaks at the convention?

(JUNEAU, Alaska) — In just two short years, Sarah Palin moved from suburban hockey mom and small-town mayor to vice presidential contender.
Yikes.

What-evah. Obama's at least got that fancy talking thing he does.

Plus he was theoretically chosen by the people, for whatever reasons motivated them to vote. Palin was appointed by one man and his advisors primarily because of her gender, secondarily because of her religious beliefs, and tertiarily because of her ANWR stance. None of that has anything to do with her own merit.

Now that I think of it. I'm a girl! I'm pro-life! I like drilling! Pick me, Johnny! Pick me!

The young hot Messiah gig doesn't really do it for me. Alternately, if you guys are into VPILFs, more power to ya.

No. But I like her sense of style. I wonder what she will wear for her speech? I would suggest she go with a colorful business outfit, coupled with a Patagonia fleece-lined waterproof canyoneering jacket.

McCain's new campaign slogan: "Have Ovaries. Will travel."

I don't believe you. What self-respecting female Obamamoonie wouldn't want themselves some of this:
