Palin's the GOP's "third bush term" nominee, today and in the future, and McCain isn't wearing the pants on his own ticket.<BR/><BR/>It's as if McCain has realized and accepted the truly terminal/zombie status of the GOP, and has pressed on since he's technically the nominee already.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14242493735687168469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24847601.post-50852071558398110282008-09-05T11:37:00.000-04:002008-09-05T11:37:00.000-04:00I don't think it's certain, but I think it's more ...I don't think it's certain, but I think it's more likely than not.

And I think he is resigned to the fact that his own party doesn't love him the way they should.<BR/><BR/>Then, of course, there is also the overwhelming sadness of knowing that he only got this nomination by cuddling with the very religious conservatives and Bush moneymakers that he derided 8 years ago. And that a piece of his soul is now missing as a result. That's incredibly sad too.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18339673763054572203noreply@blogger.com
