Apparent Transparent
Terri Whitehouse August 30th, 2008
Sen. Mitch McConnell had this to day to the Messenger-Inquirer about Sen. John McCain’s VP choice of Gov. Sarah Palin yesterday:
Clearly, picking a little-known governor from Alaska was an effort to appeal to women voters.
McCain was looking for someone who was not of Washington, who has a reputation as a reformer like him and on the foreign policy stuff, he’s going to say, “I’ve got the experience. I don’t need it in a vice president.”
The test will be when it’s all over, it will either look like a genius move or a Hail Mary that went imcomplete.
So, what do you think? Mitch McConnell: true believer, or just kidding himself because he’s power-hungry? Personally, I thought Sen. McCain came across as less-than-enthused about his own choice.
Appealing to women? I don’t know about all ya’ll, but I don’t vote with my vagina.
Of course, what do you expect from a party of dumb shits that think people are only voting for Obama because he’s black. Talk about just not getting it.
And while we’re on the topic of vaginas, why is Rep. Ed Whitfield so scared of them? Vagina dentata, perhaps?

Mitch we see how McCain feels about you ,boy did he hit that nail on the head LOL
quote ” Sen. McCain Accused Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) Of The “Most Egregious Incident” Of Corruption He Had Seen In The Senate. “It escalated when McCain reiterated the charges Oct. 10 in a cross-examination, calling McConnell’s actions the ‘most egregious incident’ demonstrating the appearance of corruption he has ever seen in his Senate career.” (Amy Keller, “Attacks Escalate In Depositions,” Roll Call, 10/21/02)”

Here’s one plus to McCain’s VP choice. Heather Ryan is the first woman ever to run for the KY-01 Congressional seat. Voters in that district, who may be hesitant to vote for a female challenger to a deeply entrenched incumbent, will be asked to compare and contrast tired old honky men to young, dynamic females with little to no legislative experience in more than one race. And it seems likely that Gov. Palin’s obvious spunk, sass and zazz will provoke among KY Republican politicians an uncomfortable association with a certain red-head candidate. I wonder if Mitch McConnell will try to get the uppity Governor fired? I hear Ed Whitfield is ready to smear her for not taking a tougher stand against encroaching polar bears.
Sarah Palin will have us all in strait jackets, but still parading in walk-step.
It is a real scary ticket and her whole family is an insult to women and family values.
What do they think we are??
