Please make her stop talking. I try and parse her sentences, and I go right off the fucking rails. I can't cope with anything she's saying, it just hurts so much.

Please make the hurting stop. Please. Please.

This is more than just a convention bounce.

Let's start talking about 2012, and who Palin's VP pick will be. My pick, out of the gate, is Jindal.

A story from when she was mayor, quoting her police appointee on why Wasilla should continue to charge rape victims for testing required for the investigation of the crime against them.

Interestingly, the $1,200 price tag for the rape kit listed in the article is exactly the amount that she disbursed to every Alaskan while governor when she took the Federal money for the "Bridge to Nowhere" and simply handed it around.

Plenty of people take six years and five institutions in three states to finish their bachelor's degree. Lifetime and nontraditional learning is an excellent alternative to the traditional four-years-and-out system.

Plenty of people worry about what their kids read and try to censor any libraries they control, And of course, wouldn't YOU fire anyone who didn't support you "in their heart" from a government job if YOU were elected?

Plenty of people view working with churches to help recently laid-off workers rebuild their lives with venomous disdain.

Plenty of people have helped run 527's for Ted Stevens.

Plenty of people had their first political experiences supporting apologists for the Nazis.

Plenty of people believe that they are given missions from God to build massive corporate giveaways.

Plenty of people believe their state should secede from the Union.

I continue to thank S,N!

So, it turns out that the thing of which I would not speak had some sort of kernel of truth within it. But that's not the most hilarious news.

ETA:Alaska Independence Party? She's a secessionist?

Anyone know what happened last time J. Sidney McCain III started spending time with an affluent, politically connected, former beauty pageant winner barely half his age while his wife was dealing with a recent injury?

From the NYT:That sort of success carried into the convention hall Monday, when Nicolle Wallace, a senior McCain aide, gave a round of cable news interviews criticizing Mr. Obama as “not ready” with the Democrats’ elaborate convention stage as a backdrop.

She WOULD be a Republican, wouldn't she.

And there's little to nothing anyone reading this can do about it. I expect the eventual electoral map to look identical (at most two states different, and if that a swap that gains (D) at most an electoral vote or two) to 2004.
