Never Underestimate the Narcissism of Joe Six-Pack

I wonder what John McCain must feel when he sees that his running mate is more popular than he is?
Last night I saw a big ass SUV, driven by a tennis mom (we don't do hockey much in GA). On the back windows was painted "A Mom for Palin."
Ouch. Where's McCain?
And today, I followed a truck with a Sarah! bumper sticker on its red ass. (see the blurry picture to the left) Underneath the SARAH! is a teeny tiny johnmccain.com
Let's all have a moment of silence for McCain's ego.......
Ray LaMontagne. Trouble.
Because that can't feel good, that's why.

And even her luster is beginning to subside.
Still, this is the same party who put Dan Quayle on the ticket twice.
Hey, you've got a problem with narcissism?
Saw that bumper sticker last week while on my way back from the tundra. It had Sarah! in big letters and in little letters underneath it said McCain-Palin. What does it say when #2 gets people more excited than #1?? To me it says neither one is worth voting for.
This is nothing but good news. Thanks, I needed cheering up.
My home state embarrasses me.
Dear "Mom for Sarah":
Last night on national television, your gal said that if a fifteen-year-old girl is raped by her step-dad, and is made pregnant by that assault, that that young woman would have to bring that pregnancy to term.
By law.
Think about your own daughter when you hear that.
Sarah Palin's running mate doesn't believe in equal pay for equal work. Your work.
Sarah Palin's running mate doesn't believe that a woman like you shouldn't have the right to sue her boss for job discrimination based on gender.
Your boss. Your gender.
Dear Mom for Sarah (I say this with love in my heart):
Please. Wake. The. Fuck. Up.
Surprised that the bumper sticker wasn't accompanied by a pair of swinging chrome balls from the trailer hitch....
Who is this anonymous? Do I need to bring my whip to the party? Just checking.
"Last night I saw a big ass SUV, driven by a tennis mom (we don't do hockey much in GA). On the back windows was painted "A Mom for Palin.""
I can't even make a joke. Crap, what is wrong with people?

What's the difference between (Bush, Cheney, you pick) and Palin? The same folks who wanted to drink beer with Bush will drink the Kool-aid with Palin.
its all about to end tomorrow night hopefully
Maybe McCain's left eye is going all funny from him gritting his teeth?
wingnuts just love each other don't they
It's all gone so far over the edge all I can do is keep holding on tight and hope the majority of the American public isn't as dumb as I suspect.
Thanks for the birthday wishes. It was a great day. It was nice to see your comment. **smile**
Everytime I see a Grampy McSame bumper sticker the scene from Fried Green Tomatoes comes to mind, where she hits the girl in the parking lot stating with age comes more insurance. I also want to rear end them!
Talk to you after the debate tomorrow. Go Joe GO!!
Susan, sorry to disapppoint, but...
here's my routine as I try to avoid the incessant talking heads but cognizant of the politics of the good old USA and not become as stupid as Palin in the affairs of state...I mean someone might ask me to be VP someday.... (I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this point)...I keep trying to creep past the TV, eyes closed to slits, ears listening to my whispered swearing and then I think I really should be paying more attention so then I watch something "sensible" like BBC or PBS but still get more depressed and I don't need to be MORE mental than I already am...at least I know I don't want any Sarah stickers on my butt-now that's sick... just somebody tell me, are we all going to hell in the proverbial handbad(sow's ear) or are we already there?
NO...wait...the debate tomorrow...now that should be good for days and days of humor and thanksgiving ... if Sarah Plain and Tall comes out of that one smelling like a blue rose, I may have to move to .... umm...Provence, unless they have nuclear power plants nearby....or upset Muslims who hate blond Americans...(thinking they have both)
we just may already be so screwed....
So, basically he picked a total loser who's more popular than him.
Telling.
I recently saw, in the HIGHLY Republican village of Manhattan Beach, a gleaming SUV with the bumper sticker: Hockey Mom for Biden.
Warmed the cockles of my heart.
So, I've never commented on your posts before, but I've been reading for about a year now. I watched the VP Debate last night, and as I was looking through the news online after, I found an article that reminded me of this post of yours..I just had to share..hope you don't mind
From MSNBC online:
Though she initially transformed the race with her energizing presence and a fiery convention speech, Palin is now a much less positive force: Six in 10 voters see her as lacking the experience to be an effective president, and a third are now less likely to vote for McCain because of her.
Later in the article:
Palin now repels more independents than she attracts to McCain. The share of independent women less apt to support McCain because of the Palin pick has more than doubled to 34 percent, while the percentage more inclined to support him is down eight points.
And yet some more:
The history of vice presidential picks suggests they are rarely consequential, and in a July Post-ABC poll, the nominees' choice for No. 2 was last on a list of 17 items voters said might sway their decisions.
The reaction to Palin, however, has been uncharacteristically strong.

Maybe there is hope yet..
KayS - Welcome to comments! Thank you for the article. I hadn't seen it. I think this year's election is hard to gauge because it seems to be so far outside the norm. Please feel free to comment any time!
