Check out Walnuts and his old friend Arlen Specter campaigning in the Pennsylvania town of “Media” yesterday. The “old hands” don’t seem to enjoy schlepping this broad around very much, but whatcha gonna do? McCain rally strategy: come on stage with some other local old Senator dude, then roll out that brat in the leather jacket and have her say the words “hockey mom” and do a flip into a pool of 40-degree water, naked.

yo, I grew up in Media. It is the County seat of Delaware County and was totally Mayberry when I lived there. Philly suburb, but still a cute town, not suburby. It was also the District of Curt Weldon, Mr. Arsehole Republican Congressman for years. Big Repub stronghold area.
Looks like a poster for:
Two Men and a SnowBunny
I can haz revolutuns pleaze?
Michael Jackson called in from 1982… he wants his red jacket back.
Walnuts and Jowelnuts and Just Plain Nuts!
Arlen’s getting his hair back.
I like the subtle use of the adjective “near-dead” in the caption. It describes so much that’s in this photo.
[re=104787]Serolf Divad[/re]: But the kid is not her son.
You can just FEEL their excitement! Kookey Moose is cheering “Yay ME!”.
That is either pleather, and she got it at Wal-Mart, or it’s what moose skin looks like.
what is with the red jackets already?! seriously
[re=104787]Serolf Divad[/re]:
Isn’t Sarah the look that Michael was gunning for anyway with all that plastic surgery?
[re=104795]blader[/re]:
What about an 8 Ball Jacket?
More Klassy.
McCain has turned into an issue whore. Stick your thumb up to see which way the wind is blowing to see which position this liar holds.
If I hear “Palin” and “naked” in the same sentence one more time, I’ll have lost last three pounds…
Specter looks like he can’t stand either one of those witless phonies.
Where’s a magic bullet when you need one, eh Arlen?
ha! I read the caption as “John McCain, who campaigned Monday in Media, is a near-dead…” and I was shocked by the honesty, but when i realized the rest of the sentence made no sense, i re-read it (to my disappointment)
I know Arlen, and I can tell you a few things about this picture just from one glance. (1) He is farting, right at that very moment. This amuses him to no end. (2) That is the only reason Arlen is smiling (sort of), because he hates Palin and everything she represents, and this is his form of silent (but deadly) protest. (3) McCain, who has worked with him for years, has smelled Arlen’s fart and recognized it as his. McCain is not as amused. (4) Palin smells it, but thinks she stepped in moose entrails or something and isn’t getting the message. She is, however, being certain to breathe through her mouth.
Arlen looks like he’s ready for Tweety to take his seat. Such enthusiasm for his role in the minority.
[re=104781]Doglessliberal[/re]: Hey- I lived in Brookhaven for 8 years and still have friends in the Wallingford area. I heard it was getting more Democratic as the old guard died. Not true?
…I’m not sure if she makes him look older or he makes her look younger?
Well I have to say, Moosilini doesn’t look near-dead here. Good for her! Way to stay un-half dead!
But america wants to know which of Walnuts 13 car gas tanks the other half-dead guy is in, or soon will be. I think the Caprice Classic.
[re=104823]Komando[/re]: WIN!
[re=104794]Kabanx[/re]: I believe that she’s wearing “Fine Corinthian Leather”.
Or a little something she picked up at Forever 21.
[re=104799]ManchuCandidate[/re]: You got a question, you ask the 8-Ball, Charlie.
At some point, she actually made a conscious decision to wear a pleather jacket the color of tomato soup. Good on her.
Specter actually looks handcuffed (finally).
[re=104865]obfuscator[/re]:
Actually, that’s Maoist Red.
[re=104885]Servo[/re]: That ensemble isn’t complete without a matching Little Red Purse.
I also thought it was pretty tasteless of her to raise both her arms above her waist while standing right next to John “Lieutenant Dan” McCain. Have some consideration, lady.
Best in Breed, Best in Show, and the consolation prize winner.
[re=104781]Doglessliberal[/re]: I grew up in Drexel Hill. good bars in media, though.
[re=104902]obfuscator[/re]: Yes, but notice that her arms aren’t way up. Sure sign that her deodorant has gone south. This would also explain McCain’s pained expression… that, or he’s shat his pants.
Which reminds me: it’s thought bubble time!
McCain: “Dammit, Sarah. After this is over, I’m dropping you at the CVS for a carton of Sure Clinical Strength.”
Arlen: “Heh heh. Sarah has perky boobies.”
Sarah: “I like pie!”
That caption is all wrong. It should read “McCain, who is near dead, campaigned…”

[re=104781]Doglessliberal[/re]:
Let me guess. Strath Haven H.S.?
[re=104823]Komando[/re]: I bet she always breathes through her mouth. She probably also moves her lips & points at the words when she reads. And, yeah, I imagine Arlen (who isn’t the worst Republican in the Senate) is probably thinking “I’m too old for this shit.”
Gimme an “M”! Gimme an “E”! Gimme a “T”! Gimme an “H”!
What’s that spell? Media!!!
Oh wait.
I think she’s pretending to hold Trig up by his arms.
Im from West Chester, 10 min down the road, and it is turning blue. Also the remaining repubs are the old guy Howard Cunningham types rather than rapture waiting nutjobs.
Arlen to mcccccain: Who is this SHIKSA?
Fold your hands child, you look like a peasant.
Botswana Meat Commission FC: actually, Penncrest. StrathHaven was for Swarthmore kids. I went to Swarthmore College, though.
[re=104781]Doglessliberal[/re]: I’m from Media too!!!! I campaigned for Joe Sestak, who defeated Weldon (D-7 pride). What high school did you go to?
[re=104985]Doglessliberal[/re]: and no, for the people who will ask, that is not the all-women’s college, Skidmore.
[re=104988]tepid sunshine[/re]: Penncrest, c/o ’89.
[re=104991]Doglessliberal[/re]: I’m glad to hear someone else on Wonkette is repping “Everybody’s Hometown.” I’m Penncrest ’07 (just a baby, I know). Was Mr. Ludwig around when you were there?
[re=104985]Doglessliberal[/re]: I went to Swarthmore College too! are you my twin?
Haaaaaaayyyy! PA in tha haaaauss! whatwhat!
[re=104994]tepid sunshine[/re]: oh my god, yes! I cannot believe he is still there.
[re=104998]PoliticalGraffiti[/re]: whoa, small world. And I don’t know, are you a woman with dark blonde hair?
[re=104959]bigpfeifinphilly[/re]: Did an arts internship in Media a ton of years ago and remember thinking it was getting bluer.
Not New Hope blue, but bluer.
On the whole, the Philly suburbs are getting bluer: Old guard dying off, fewer hardcore Catholics, Bush’s eight years of brilliance, people leaving a hardcore Democratic city (where Kerry got something unreal like 87 percent of the vote in ’04). All of this is off the top of my head so I’m probably wrong.
Sorry, can’t really join the party: I grew up in Philly but went to a HS in Bucks County. The other suburbs remain for the most part a mystery to me, though I hate Upper Darby just because.
(Those of us from the Far Northeast are a little slow, apparently, not realizing we’re posting an hour after the discussion kinda ended.)
I’m not sure the phrase “near-dead heat” is entirely within the bounds of taste here.
This photo op missed the mark. Steve Schmidt told Specter to show up with an oxygen hose in his nose so that McCain would look younger and more vigorous. Specter’s look tells it all — I’m not dead yet, so live with it. And Sarah just realized she can almost see the Liberty Bell from where she’s standing. In a strictly rhetorical way, of course.
I’m late to this game … did everyone else go to Swarthmore, too?
Kill the pig. Cut her throat. Spill her blood.
[re=107260]S.Luggo[/re]: For the roadkill-dining, meth-toking, Bristol-exploring Wasilleans who failed to make it past 8th grade (which I assume also includes most Alaskans], that’s called either (a) a Merlot-sipping, elitist literary reference (no, MD 20/20 is not a merlot; it is an –mmmm-so good —fortified hobo wine) or (b) a Ted Steven’s off-hand comment about Joan Claybrook [no,
liberal arts assholes, she is NOT the actress who starred in "An Unmarried Woman".]
The boys are wearing those angsty mugs because Sarah is saying, “In Alaska we distribute oil profits to everybody, no matter if they work, sit around in their underwear, stick oars in beluga blowholes for fun, whatever. We give em money, you betcha, for nuthin. And if that isn’t… uh…. ca-pital…ism? Uh, no, I meant, the oil companies make the profits, but we take some and distribute it, like nationalizing that industry except just a little, because… uh… it’s… capital… wait, wait, I know this one, I practiced this one…”
