The Palin Play

which everyone (including me for the most part) is saying has a bit of downs itself may actually be straight-up Rove. Remember when he put anti-gay marriage amendments on the ballot for something like 38 state constitutions? That was 2004. Remember how that turned out?

McCain already gets all the warmonger votes on his own. So there was no need for him to add Lieberman or Ridge. Pawlenty was a boring choice. One can now picture McCain sort of doing a masturbating pantomine and smirking as one of his aides tried to convince him to pick Pawlenty. And McCain really hates Romney on a personal level. So he had a choice of picking a moderate and trying to pick up a ton of independent votes that, let's face it, are going to go to Joe Biden, or picking a social conservative and trying to mobilize the religious. Huckabee could have become too powerful and completely alienated business interests. So, how about a governor who, during the campaign, will demonstrably decide that her family will have two babies other people might have aborted?

And now their campaign can sit and wait until someone they can tie to Obama in some way says that Palin should have had the kids aborted. This is a flap that is coming.


But I don't think it will work.
