Listen: The Day the Music Died
Senator McCain and Governor Palin just held a campaign rally. McCain, not surprisingly was on the attack but what really stood out was the awful music which played at the end of the speech. I am not sure the name of the band and I am guessing the song’s title is “McCain/Palin Tradition.” Now, I am not a professional music critic. I
believe I have somewhat good taste but I’ll let you be the judge.

All his rowdy friends are puking their Lone Star out over that one.

Maybe... just maybe, Palin's latest salvo was deliberately engineered by her handlers to give McShame (who has none), an excuse to axe her and go with someone else. After all, he is John McDesperate! Unfortunately, I don't think they could find anyone else and that's why she's there in the first place. Remember another OLD Republican candidate - Bob Dole and his running mate Jack ah..ah...ah...ah.... what's his name? He seems to have dropped off the face fo the earth. Kiss of Death I tell you, being associated with a desaster of biblical proportions.
Oh, and the music, I should have known better than to expect anything other than that from the current Republican team. It just gives me one more reason for not liking twangy country music.

a while ago. Palin was chosen because they don't want to waste a legitimate candidate on a losing proposition. So they take the opportunity to put up a woman candidate and from now on we can't say they didn't try.
The music. so many of the good musicians have told McCain to cease and desist that I think they went straight to the discount rack, figuring that even if the band is all Dem, they'll be happy to get the airplay.

History doesn't support the idea that Crash is going to give Caribou Barbie the chop. The only time I can think of that this was done, was in 72 when McGovern replaced Tom Eagleton after it came out that he had been to a shrink. We all know how that one turned out.
Scariest thing about a Palin administration: New national anthem, "Kill The Libs For The Glory Of Jesus," written by Toby Keith.
