McCain acting out for the press the moments before Palin would become president were he elected. Also Meg Whitman is a robot.
You know Romney's thinking, "I would die from a heart attack way better than that guy!"

Stealing It
This weekend we learned that Colin Powell is now angling for a cabinet position in the future Obama administration. It looks like the inside word is that McCain-Palin are going down harder than Kimbo Slice. I expect a lot of political mover-and-shakers are going to jump onto the Obama bandwagon in the next week.
Events on the campaign trail haven't been very helpful for the Republicans. During the debate, McCain morphed Joe Six-Pack into "Joe the Plumber" and while he's at least a real person, it turns out he's not a plumber and his name isn't Joe. So too bad there. Palin finally took a strong stand against the Anti-America parts of... er... America. Also, it turns out that McCain's "fiery" performance in the debate played as cranky and senile against Obama's Buddhist-like calm.
It's probably pretty hard right now for McCain stalwarts. There's really nowhere left to hang your hat. Witness, William Crystal, going all neo-populist today.
But maybe, those Republicans who still believe, can take most heart in the miraculous victories of the Bush years. Bush ran and reigned as a nitwit and got elected twice against far more qualified opponents. If he can do it, maybe there's still hope for McCain.

Palin's Debate Flowchart
I've got it! She's a finite state machine! This amazing advance in robotics and artificial intelligence was brought to us by the Republican Party. And they say that McCain doesn't understand advanced technology.

I'm sorry, we don't use that term in Alaska
From the Vice Presidential debate last night:
Question: What is your Achilles heel?
Palin's Answer: "My Achilles heel is that my executive experience of a huge energy-producing state counting towards much progress towards getting our nation energy independence. That's very important."
Um yeah. I guess it's better than just saying that you don't know what an "Achilles heel" is. The moderator tried to help her out by mentioning that others perceive her Achilles heel to be her lack of experience, but I think it just confused her more.
