Wow.

The accusation that John McCain, a former prisoner of war, would pick an inexperienced running mate, is absurd.

But then again, this is what her supporters have to say:

I realize, of course, that she's totally unqualified to be President at this point in time. If McCain were to die in February 2009, I hope Palin would have the good sense to appoint someone who is more ready to be President to be her Vice President, on the understanding that she would then resign and be appointed Vice President by her successor. (Lest anyone say that this is an absurd, unconstitutional or undemocratic scenario, recognize that this is pretty much what would happen in a Parliamentary system where, if the head of government dies, a successor is chosen by the party.) Palin is absolutely not ready to be President now, but that is a problem that is very easily dealt with if she is and the governing party want to do so.


Wait, this is your endorsement? In the words of John Stewart, "You're fucking kidding me, right?"
