Sarah Palin Is Picked By McCain

Sarah Palin In a non-surprising move, McCain tried to steal the thunder from the well-orchestrated Democratic National Convention by picking Alaska governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate.

Update: Her speech consists of nothing more than, “You’re a woman, I’m a woman, so forget those Democrats and vote for us because we’ll do the real change in Washington.”

The women of America aren’t finished yet, and we can shatter that glass ceiling once and for all.

Update 2: Apparently she supports drilling and doesn’t believe in global warming. Oh and she’s a creationist. And her husband works for BP. I think this is a GOP fail.

    Sarah was great at the RNC tonite, but then again she’s had nearly a week to do nothing but practice and polish what McCain’s speechwriter gave her — and facts are still facts:

    It’s not Palin running for president…. it’s McCain.

    It’s not Palin who will have the power of veto… it’s McCain.

    It’s not the Vice President that calls the shots…. it’s the President.

    If Palin was running for President, I just might vote for her — but she’s not.

    Make no mistake about it: Palin is running on the #2 position as a consequence of Obama’s own idiotic VP pick and by virtue of the fact that McCain needed woman voters.

    10 Things To Look Forward To At The Republican National Convention

    (from woot)

    1. Men’s rooms specially designed to allow for a wide stance
    2. Overenthused delegates start drilling for oil on convention floor
    3. Sarah Palin stopped by security, asked for ID
    4. Enraged, chanting crowd burns effigy of Keith Olbermann
    5. Confused Ron Paul delegate forgets which convention he’s at, shows up wearing Iron Man costume
    6. Repeated attempts to serve both God and Mammon
    7. Angry women in heavy makeup who refuse to accept they haven’t been a trophy wife since 1984
    8. Nights two and three entirely dedicated to explaining that Bill Clinton must be stopped before he destroys the world
    9. Fred Thompson challenges Karl Rove to an old-fashioned Tennessee jowl-off
    10. More black speakers than in the last hundred and fifty years combined
