Doubling Down
Say, if Senator Obama’s so fucking concerned about Governor Palin’s inexperience, why doesn’t he offer to trade places with Joe Biden? Obama’s like an underemployed asshole who won’t get a real job unless he can come in as CEO of the entire concern. And the misogyny of his initial response to the news of Palin’s nomination is unquestionable. As I remarked to a certain woman I know of tonight, I had long thought that the claims of misogyny against Obama had been overplayed, but his reaction today persuaded me quite otherwise. I think the more that independent and conservative Democratic women hear about the Governor of Alaska, the more they will like her and her family and see her as someone they can work with.
Don’t forget that the “McSame” riff these miserable hippies are always trying to push is a total lie. They know that McCain is the real representative of bipartisanism. And with this choice of Palin —which is high-risk, but high-reward— McCain is also saying that he’s interested in being the one to bring ”change” to Washington. Palin will appeal to many different strata of conservatism and libertarianism and maybe even liberalism. At the very least, she is as “historic” a choice as Obama.
