I know we’re still celebrating and whatnot, but do you realize the bullet we dodged in the McCain camp, most notably, the loose cannon VP, better known as “McCain’s Choice”?

A picture says a thousand words.  Cherish the look as homegirl realizes not all of America is in love with her egotistical ass.

Sarah Palin

Buzz up!

From US Magazine:

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin had tears in her eyes as John McCain gave his concession speech Tuesday night in Arizona.

He called his running mate (and self-described “hockey mom”) “one of the best campaigners I have ever seen and an impressive new voice in our party for reform and the principles that have always been our greatest strength.”

That line received the loudest applause of the night.

Palin is expected to arrive in Alaska sometime today in a campaign plane.

After McCain’s loss, she phoned supporters attending an event at the Wasilla Multi-Use Sports Complex.

Now, y’all know McCain had to show some class last night.  Actually, he showed quite a bit of class as he graciously conceded to President-Elect Obama.  “That One” ran the score up on McCain and he had to give credit where credit was due.  He couldn’t very well trash Palin in public, though he’s got to be blaming her for losing the whole shebangabang.

He’d better eat some of that blame – he picked her ass to be his running mate.  Not vetting her is really to blame here.

Palin, for her part, insists that she wasn’t the reason McCain lost.  Ya Think? According to her, it was everyone else’s fault that they lost last night.  It couldn’t have anything to do with:

  • $150K to dress her up; and that amount has increased when it’s been discovered an additional $20-40K was spent to dress up First Dude;
  • Refusal to do “real” interviews with credible journalists who wouldn’t have fallen for her flirting, winking and “you betchas”, but would have grilled her ass like filet mignon;
  • That she and her family were a bunch of “grifters” enjoying the good life on the taxpayers’ dime.
  • Troopergate and an investigation that revealed her abuse of power in trying to get her ex-brother-in-law fired from his job as an Alaskan State Trooper.

Nah, according to Palin, it was the media’s fault.

Palin blamed the media for the reason why some female voters didn’t fully embrace her.

“You have to consider that there has been the constant barrage, a kind of spin on my record or my positions,” she said on ABC’s 20/20 last week.

So, it’s Katie Couric’s fault that she showed you to be a blithering idiot on National TV.  Way to stay classy, Sister Sarah.

And far from her career being over, she’s threatening us with a comeback in 2012:

“I am neither bitter nor vanquished, but very confident in the knowledge that there will be another day,” she continued.

So should she decides to make a “comeback”, I say we’ll be ready for her ass.  Just like Hillary, she doesn’t know when to gracefully exit the stage; she has to be PUSHED OFF.

And with that, I’m hoping that this will be the last word on Sarah Palin…at least until 2012. Even then, we’ll be ready and waiting for her to trip and fall again, unless they polish her up real good.
