Last night I thought that I was finally over Palin. I was even going to write about it today. But then I saw a news item on People.com that I couldn’t resist. They are really beginning to scrape the bottom of the barrel for new insights into Palin’s ability to be VP. My favorite:
“She’s adaptable. Palin used to wear Mary Kay lipstick, but she now prefers MAC.”
Wait…. Doesn’t that make her a flip-flopper?
Seriously though, at some point this insane fascination with Palin has got to end. I mean, really, the VP is only a figurehead. Just ask John Adams. The way they’ve put her in the forefront as if she is the one running against Obama is ridiculous.
I almost feel sorry for McCain. He’s like this teacher I had in high school who was fresh out of college and desperate to become a member of the “in” crowd that he obviously had not been a part of during his own high school days. In his desperation, he went a little nuts – started drinking with the students, allegedly having an affair. In the end he lost his job and his wife. I think that McCain started to realize how unpopular he was after seeing the popularity of Palin explode. Now he’s desperate. And going a little nuts.
