More on the Most Fascinating Republican...

Things seem to be turning around for Mr. McCain. What seemed at first glance to be suicidal turned out to be a pretty cagey move. Sarah Palin pulled McCain ahead of Obama in many of the bigger tracking polls. Republicans were energized and things started to look a little scary for our golden son.
But that's starting to change. McCain crossed the line when he accused Democrats of being sexist before they even had a chance to open their mouths. It energized stupid women briefly, but even stupid women must know when they're being treated like idiots.
Then they said that Obama wanted to teach kindergartners how to fuck well. It turned out that this wasn't so true. And the more he speaks, the more he tends to contradict himself. The fundamentals of our economy were strong Monday morning, but it only took three hours for things to turn ugly. Those fundamentals which seemed so fundamentally strong, were no longer what we had fundamentally come to see them as. Those fundamentals weakened in three short hours, and were soon in grave danger.
And boy was McCain right...eventually. Everyone and their mother has been bailed out by the US Government, saving Lehman who was left to drown, laying off lots of people and adding to our financial woes in so many complicated ways that only the Chinese seem to truly understand it.
We're fucked. I'm done for tonight. More on McCain next week.
