I’M SORRY…SARAH WHO??!
By Dermott McCallscreener
Breaking news, evra-buddeh – John McCain has picked Sarah Palin as his running mate. What’s the tactic here? Who is the McCain campaign playing to with this “WTF” pick?
Are we witnessing a rare Republican Machine miscalculation? Or will a healthy dose of soccer-mom spin make this work for McCain?
Post your thoughts and reactions below.
Best,

Don't fret about this...instead, rejoice
Like I mentioned below, her selection has actually had the opposite effect, pissing off a lot of Hillary supporters.
Second, take notice about this thread.....it's troll-free. What does that tell you? That the diehard 20%ers who support Bush and McCain aren't exactly jumping up and down for joy at the pick. Not only did Crash NOT energize his core constituency with this pick, he alienated a large group he had hoped to pick up, Hillary supporters.
The biggest danger now is trying too hard to make her look pathetic. Look how that worked in 2000 and 2004, when Gore and Kerry obliterated Bush in every single debate. The public reacted with sympathy for poor old Chimpy. Dems shouldn't work hard to discredit her. Just seeing her on a stage next to Biden, discussing how tough it was to run the burg of Wasilla, AK, while Biden talks about calling Milosovic a war criminal to his face should be more than enough.
