Okay, admittedly I stopped paying attention to the presidential campaign months ago when I decided that:
- I’m not voting for a Republican because they’ve gotten every single issue wrong for the last 8 years,
- I like both Hillary and Barack, and will support either of them, and
- I don’t really care to hear them tear each other apart.
And it’s probably that last part that I’m missing out on. Because now I hear former Hillary supporters saying that if they can’t have her, they’re going to support McCain/Palin because:
- Sarah Palin’s a woman,
- Like many women she has children,
- They identify with her femininity and having-borne-children-ness, and
- They’re angry about what the Obama camp did

Yes, yes, Sarah Palin may be an unqualified nut with the screechiest voice this side of The Nanny, but she’ll still make a great vice president. I mean, she may not be able to do as good a job as Joe Biden, but since she’s not a feminist, can’t we just pay her 86 percent of what we would have paid a man?
The lady’s a Republican for goodness sakes - she should be happy with a little sexism.

$1.64. That’s the price of gas, when George W. Bush, an oil-man, took office. The question we need to be asking ourselves in terms of a McCain presidency is: how much are we willing to pay for beer?
