Look, We all know John McCain didn't make this choice.......
What scares the shit out of me is...... Who did? Who is behind this "operation"?
Because that's what this is.... a MIC operation. Let's all wake up now. These guys behind the scenes
of this fascist nightmare didn't get weaker during the past 8 years, they got stronger.

Your thoughts.

1. It is Rove
I am sure it is Rove, just wonder what the motive is.

That she would be switched with someone else after a later date.

16. I know what their motive is.........
They really don't want to win this election rather watch Obama fail and come back in 4 years as the heros to the rescue. The machine tends to look longterm.

4. The Bush** Crime Family, maybe? Look how they roughed up Johnny-the-Victim in 2000.
Are they still pulling the strings?

10. Just freestylin' here, but could they be trying to tank the ticket so that...

6. They admit they don't even know each other. This was rigged, engineered--
we have Mr. Senile Gonna Croak at the top of the ticket, Ms. "I haven't thought much about Iraq" at the bottom of the ticket, and America is basically screwed if they win.

7. Roach Limpballs...
When McLame was floating pro-choice candidates, boil-butt boy went ballistic and rattled off his suggestions (one of which included Palin). On his show today, he was absolutely gushing and blubbering about the pick.

He who controls the message (media) makes the choice.

9. This is a classical McCain move

he gets to pay back Romney and show everyone that he is in charge.

He wants to show them that he plays the campaign game better than any of those smart guys. Nixon without the brains.

13. Wow, I hadn't thought of that. I imagine Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani, Tom Ridge, Carly Fiorina,
Tim Pawlenty, Joe Lieberman, Mark Sanford, and Kay Bailey Hutchison are all seething right now. I'll bet they can't believe that McManiac would go for a sheer stunt to win, rather than actually pick a decent and qualified choice for the future of the nation.

19. You guys are thinking too much. It's a fucking crazy choice that hurts McCain.
Nothing Rovian about it. McCain caved to the loonies and choked.
