Nailin' Palin

Sarah Palin is perhaps the worst thing to happen to the GOP since George W. She is incompetent, not very bright (some may say an imbecile), disgustingly populist, and a bully. She ran her small town mayoral job like a high school president would run his board. She filled positions with cronies, fired her personal enemies (trooper gate anyone?), went on a vendetta against the town's librarian and the library's books, and even let her husband attend all major meetings she had with members of congress and other important figures. Now that I think of it, she is more like the kindergarten class president. This woman was completely unfit to be second in command to preside over the free world. The election of a vice president is the first and often only executive decision that a presidential candidate gets to make, and in this case McCain clearly did not choose wisely, if he got to choose at all. Appealing to the female voters is one thing, but choosing Palin was an insult to America's intellect. Clearly ignorant of foreign policy and lacking basic culture, it is no wonder they kept her hidden from the media at all costs. And it paid off, for the Democrats who are now in power that is.
