$100 million McCain blames you greedy bitches

While I don't disagree, I am still astounded by the heights of hypocrisy this campaign is ascending to.

McCain: Greed created Wall Street's problems

Also: Duh.

Did McCain just lose the election?

Wow. Sarah Palin. Wow. I'm a little floored. Actually, totally confused would be more accurate.

What was he thinking??? John McCain just chose as his running mate a woman whose entire political career consists of eight years as mayor of a town of 9,000 and two years as governor of one of the least populated states in the nation. Two years in which Palin has already courted controversy by pressuring the Alaska Department of Public Safety to fire her ex-brother-in-law, who is in the middle of a custody battle with her sister. A woman who has NO foreign policy experience and - if elected - would be one 72-year-old hearbeat away from the Presidency.

The entire tactic of painting Barack Obama as "too inexperienced" just got tossed out the window. For what? To have a woman on the ticket? The perplexing part is that there are MANY more experienced Republican women who could have more ably filled the role: Kay Bailey Hutchison and Elizabeth Dole, just to name two. I just can't even imagine why he went this route. Truly bizarre.

John McCain: the real rich elitist

Just days after saying that he doesn't think people who make $4 million a year qualify as "rich," John McCain admitted in an interview yesterday that he doesn't even know how many houses he owns.

Yet the Republican attack machine slammed Obama for visiting his grandmother in Hawaii, a destination visited by 2.5 million Americans every year. Almost all of whom - I suspect - actually know how many houses they have.
