Holy foreshadowing....

She said "nucular." Twice.
I realized three things from her interview. For one, if you are a McCain/Palin/Bush voter, you and I do not have a difference of opinion. We have a difference in brain power. With you on the lacking end. Two, she really is as ignorant as I feared. And, three, she really is kinda hot. Basically, I want to have sex with her on my Barack Obama sheets while my wife reads aloud from the Constitution. (My wife is cool with this if I promise to "first wipe off Palin's tranny makeup." I married well.)
Now, I want to be clear and speak directly to those of you who LOVED that Palin interview. You're an idiot. I mean that. This is not one of those cases where we're going to agree to disagree. This isn't one of those situations where we debate it passionately and then walk away thinking that the other guy is wrong but argued well. I'm not going to think of you as a thoughtful but misguided person with different ideas who still really cares about the country and the world. No, sorry, not this time. This time, if you watched those interview excerpts and weren't scared out of your freakin' mind, then you're mentally ill, mentally disabled, or mentally disturbed. What you are NOT is responsible, informed, curious, thoughtful, mature, educated, empathetic, or remotely serious. I mean it.
But I like to think that anyone can change.
Stop voting for people you want to have a beer with. Stop voting for folksy. Stop voting for people who remind you of your neighbor. Stop voting for the ideologically intransigent, the staggeringly ignorant, and the blazingly incompetent.
Vote for someone smarter than you. Vote for someone who inspires you. Vote for someone who has not only traveled the world but who has also shown a deep understanding and compassion for it. The stakes are real and they're terrifyingly high. This election matters. It matters. It really matters. Let me say that one more time. This. Really. Matters.

Thinking Palin is equally qualified as Obama because she ran Alaska for < two years is proof people see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear. McCain will have a chest explosion six months into office and the whole country will collectively go "ohhhh shit!" while the Middle East praises Allah.
I wonder how Jews will primarily vote in this election. Him being a Muslim supporter puts a twist on their usual far left alignment.
Generally speaking, true. Sure there will be a handful of minorities who will look past racial alignment and vote McCain but I'd really be surprised if he won. I think the sea change of minorities and liberal whites who sympathize with them has reached critical mass.
Anyone who thinks race isn't at the center of this election is incredibly naive.
I talked with a Puerto Rican buddy of mine and he told me he and his family are voting for the first time (he's lived in the U.S. for over a couple decades). He said he's voting Obama just to fuck with all the white people lol.

LOL Considering who's been running our country the last 8 years , palin would probably be an upgrade.
But I agree too and LOL @ Palin being equally qualified as Obama
