So we're supposed to vote McCain/Palin because Todd Palin won a dogsled race twice? I swear that was what McCain just told people.
Makes about as much sense as voting for the Big Zero just because he's "black," one supposes.

1. well, now I'm switching to McCain
If Todd had only won once, I might not vote for his wife, but TWICE? Damn. That's some impressive shit.

2. You're supposed to vote for him if you are the sort of person who enjoys the feel of a red hot poker up your ass.

3. I thought it was a snowmobile race?
You mean he races dogsleds too? Along with being a fisherman AND an employee of a foreign oil company?
How the Hell does he have the time to keep churning out the babies with Tundra Barbie?

15. I stand corrected. He did say the name of the race and it wasn't a name familiar to me. Whatever he raced, he seems to think it qualifies Goody Sarah as VP.
Yeah, just like the Big Zero's race qualifies him as president.

8. Snow machine is what they refer to snowmobiles in the Upper 1
Snowmobiles in the Lower 49 ... you know, the "Other America" that the Palins want nothing to do with ... unless it's as customers for their oil ...

6. If he won a dog sled race I might respect him
What he won was a snowmobile race. An ATV on skis. A frozen jet ski. The kind of thing that, when you buy one, your IQ goes down by 30 points.
Hmmm. One suspects the toolarrytom primitive is jealous because Todd Palin has a snow machine, and the toolarrytom primitive doesn't. The old green-eyed monster thing, again.

7. That's the kind of shit that seems to be working on the uninformed voters. A lady I know who is kind of an independent (but I've always been able to inform her & convince her to vote Dem so far) told me that she liked that McCain is really independent & that she thinks Sarah is really regular & likes that. :eyes: I have my work cut out for me this round.

13. He probably did.
And it will probably help. Because, quite frankly, nothing surprises me in this election anymore.

14. And because the entire Palin family had to sleep inside of a dressed-out Caribou to stay warm once?
Hmmm. The primitives seem to be busting their asses to throw away the potential Alaska vote for the Big Zero.
