Sooner or later, I pray voters are gonna take a realistic look at Sarah Palin and realize:
She's just a female version of Dan Quayle.
If she didn't have a vagina, she'd still be back in Alaska pocketing all her oil company kickbacks.
And so it goes.

Inflamed
Gotta say, McSame's Thursday night performance about as inspiring as a hemorrhoid.
But the GOP faithful would have spent the entire speech cheering if all he had done was stand up there and fart. Which wasn't far from the truth.
(It was funny of course, that the FOX TV folks just wet all over themselves declaring what an inspiring speech it was. All of the other talking heads were using words like insipid and confusing and unmemorable.)
At least there was a pro football game on at the same time to turn to.
And so it goes.

We're all stupid, right?
The biggest weapon the Repugnicants have used against Barack Obama is that he isn't experienced enough to be president. After a term in the U.S. Senate and 3 terms in the illinois Senate.
So John McSame picks the brand new fresh out of the box governor of Alaska. She has NO experience in national politics. None. Nada. Two years ago she was an small-town Alaska city council person.
Experience? Guess that doesn't matter if you're a Repugnicant.
What's that say about the Repugnicants and McSame? That they believe the electorate is stupid enough to believe she's qualified when Barak isn't? (Well, the electorate WAS stupid enough to elect the current W-imbecile. Twice. So I guess they figure...)
All her job is during the campaign is to try and pick up a few women's votes. Cynical? Certainly. A gamble. Definitely.
Wonder if she knows where Washington DC is?
Finally, I'd have to say the Repugnicants have given up with their only objection to Obama: That he's not qualified/experienced enough. Now all the have left is all the one they've been afraid to say out loud all along ... HE'S BLACK.

Looking in
Didn't realize how frustrating it would turn out being a D in a R conclave. Especially being a D when 64 percent (or more) of the voters are R.
To put it in perspective, yesterday was election day in SWFlorida. Of course I voted.
Not one single person I voted for was elected. Not one of the races was close.
Rs won. Incumbents won. Nothing changes. Around here, nothing ever changes. Change is a bad thing if you're as old as most of the voters around here. So: No change, thankyouverymuch.
Which means:
-- The Collier County School Board will remain in the hands of the corrupt cadre, threatening accreditation of every school in the district. The foxes are still running the hen house. The education of every student in Collier County is in jeopardy. But it appears that's OK with Collier County voters.
-- A Collier County Deputy will be the new sheriff. And that means four more years of corruption. Four more years of harassment, of profiling, of good-ol-boy networking and damned little actual policing. But it appears that's OK with Collier County voters.
-- Incumbents won on the Collier County Board. Which means four more years of kowtowing to developers and realtors and ignoring the people. But it appears that's OK with Collier County voters.
Frustrating. Discouraging.
