Independence day now has a special meaning for Alaskan residents.
They're going to run out of fireworks on July 3 for years to come!
Why would the GOP want a quitter as a leader? "Quitting the governorship wasn't the only job she quit.
Palin quit her job when she was chairwoman of the Alaska Oil & Gas Commission too. She's a quitter, pure and simple.

Michael Steele will be loosing his job to Sarah in the near future.

He sold his soul a looong time ago.
Absolutely!! And he thinks we are too stupid to realize it.
Out you go Johny! There is a strong campaign in Arizona to vote you out in 2010. I can't wait when that happens.
And this is a man that wanted to be president? He has some take on leadership at a national level. That kind of explains his challenges with education as not by graduating at the bottom of his class even though he had a free ride to the Academy's admission and a freer ride in getting through. But the free ride didn't end there as he became a pilot despite 5 crash incidents which would have grounded less connected pilots and the free ride of his wife's money in getting elected to office. Whew, when will the free rides end?
When we FINALLY vote him out of office in 2010.
Please, Arizona. Please....
Choosing Palin as his running mate was the most unpatriotic thing McCain has ever done. McCain trully hates America and wants to see this country become something other than a democracy. I can only wish his decision to bring this woman to the forefront and maintain his support for her will eventually drive him insane.
bares repeating "Choosing Palin as his running mate was the most unpatriotic thing McCain has
Too late. He lost it, when he lost to President Obama by an overwhelming margin of defeat. Wait until he looses his senate seat. You'll be seeing real tears and much babbling then. I can't wait.
I feel like I am in a dream. This dip sh it is actually being defended by GOP. This country is full of id iots.
Only about 20% full. :D
How much more evidence do we need that McCain is totally out of touch with reality?
McCain solidified his reputation for cluelessness with his "The fundamentals of the economy are sound" comment.
And with "my fellow prisoners"
HOW MANY MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL "LIBERAL MEDIA" HAVE FILED ETHICS COMPLAINTS AGAINST ALASKAN GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN?
The reason that Sarah Palin and her adoring sycophants rail against the national "liberal media" is because they need an omnipotent bogeyman to blame in order to deflect the fact that her lack of ETHICS is the reason that ETHICS COMPLAINTS are being filed against her by ALASKANS.
The ethics complaints being filed against Sarah Palin aren't coming from people outside of ALASKA....
ALASKA is heavily dominated by REPUBLICAN voters and politicians. That means that the vast majority of the ethics complaints being filed against Sarah Palin are being filed by her fellow REPUBLICANS.
The fact that here problems come from ALASKANS says a lot. Note how politicians always attempt a transference of blame to a third or outside party. She's claiming its the Demos in the other 49 states along with their liberal media and bloggers.
She will preside over the corpse of the so called republican party.
The stench is getting rather strong.
I'll give the GOP credit where credit is due; it's created the perfect rat trap. Only un-electables can win Republican primaries because the bigotry of its own semi-literate base is completely unwanted outside of its echo chamber.
"semi-literate"? You give them too much credit.
Perhaps, but somehow they manage to get their names onto ballots, and identify (R) straight down the line. That's my best hypothesis and I really don't believe I could stomach more rigorous study of them. ;)
Didn't know McCain's Alzheimers was so advaced.

So long, Johnny!

I suspected McCain is mentally ill, now I am sure of it. How in blazes can a QUITTER, such as Sarah Palin, play a leadership role in anything?! Quitters are not leaders. Quitters are losers!
If it is at all possible for the party to sink even lower she has a chance to lead the group of lunies.
John has no choice but to defend Palin. After all, if he told the truth that everyone with a brain knows
( that Sarah Palin was a disastrious pick for VP ). If he admitted that truth, he'd have to acknowlege that he made the most serious misstep of his political career in that pick. He's the one who unleashed her upon the American public. Bite the bullet, McCain and admit it. We all knw it's the truth, but then Republicans have a problem with the truth.
Don't blame it all on her, there was nothing to pick from, the candidate himself was a lousy pick too.
I agree, to a certain extent, but I do think there were much better and more competent choices.
He just wanted some horizontal refreshment with her.
