John McCain seems absolutely delighted that his crowds have swelled because of Sarah Palin. He's not completely full of himself. I guess getting the crap beaten out of you for five and a half years by the Cong does that to you.
On the other hand, Barry had to be the star of his own show, and he certainly didn't want to share any spotlight with the Toons. So he deliberately picked the second most boring man who ran against him (sorry, I gotta put Chris Doddering at the head of that list!)
Pride goeth before a fall.
Just like Nixon in 1968.
I have to announce to all here that I was completely wrong in my prediction as to what McCain would do regarding a VP.
I was sure there was absolutely no way he would choose anyone that would take any of the spotlight away from him. I believed that his ego would not permit him to do this.
I stand corrected. I also admit he is running a much better campaign that I anticipated.
I still don't trust him on GW and illegals. But we will fight those battles after the election, if he wins.
Duh!.....he's a lame duck...he knew it and everybody else knew it...the hordes were not busting down his door to help him get elected....'til Princess Sarah rode in on her white horse to save his azz....
