Ol’ Walnuts was on television again this morning, just sort of fucking around with Charlie Rose et al., cracking jokes, you know how it is with these people. Hey, Johnny Baby, who d’you think should get that VP slot, eh? Give us a name, Mac. Just some banter, you know, McCain likes that. Banter. How about Sarah Palin, he bantered back, while cracking up. Right? Because how funny would it be if someone picked Sarah Palin to be on a presidential ticket? Ace punch line, J-Mac.
So he was drunk or…??
“I think it should be Sarah Palin,” McCain said on CBS as he broke into laughter, when asked about Palin’s suggestion Tuesday night that the eventual presidential nominee should “go rogue” in their VP selection.
Asked by the laughing hosts of “This Morning” whether he had spoken to Palin about this, the Arizona senator said, “No, I haven’t.”
“I think that we have some very qualified candidates. Obviously, Marco Rubio is in the top tier, Chris Christie, there are a number of candidates we have out there, Bobby Jindal, Mitch Daniels. We have a wealth of talent right there, and I’m sure that Mitt will make the right choice,” he said.
As he burst into laughter again, McCain added, “Obviously, it’s a tough decision.”
It’s… hahahahah… it’s a big choice… *slaps knee, red in the face*… and you’ve got to put a lot of research HAHAHAHAHAHA into it, see… you’ve got to take it very seriously… *high fives Charlie Rose a few times, slaps his ass, can barely breathe*… because your running mate could be PRESIDENT some day!… *falls over, smacks ground repeatedly, howling in laughter, kicking the set, rolling, sobbing, sobbing, sobbing…*

"You have to pick a running mate who's fuckable."
But why would anyone suggest Sarah Palin then?
Well, Our Snowbilly was declared GILF by Wonkette in Aught-Six. However, that was before anybody heard her speak [screech]. So Wonkette's vetting was about as good as McCain's.
The sad thing is that Palin was, by all accounts, fairly OK and semi- (emphasis on semi) moderate before she began her journey to Snowbilly Grifter/Fux Noose talking head.
How could you not, in a state where every resident gets a gubbmint oil revenue check?
Was she? The accounts I remember from backintheday seemed to suggest that she rose in prominence at least partly by injecting national movement-conservative politics into what was traditionally a non-partisan, local-issues mayoral race.

No one denies this!
Romney/Snorg Tees Chick 2012!
The VP slot is what Shawna Really Wants
"… but don't think about Governor Christie's armpit."
VP, FFS…
Romney/Obama 2012?
Rush has started his "Romney/Dominican Boy 2012" on air push?!
Arizona, it's time to take away John McCain's driver's license.
Think about what State we're talking about here. Arizona has a long rich history, including being under the control of both Spain and Mexico, so of course its second largest city banned the teaching of Mexican-American studies. I could continue with other examples, but it comes down to that State as a collective whole being largely incapable of making rational decisions. So, don't expect them to pull a drivers license from a senile old fool.
Have you driven in Arizona lately? Walnuts is probably a better driver than a good number of their road warriors, even now…
But not his concealed-carry permit, because Jesus.
Are Senator McCain and Mittens going to go on a Comedy Tour soon?
Malkin is not amused!
#71 LIBEL!!!!
Walnuts got hold of some of Cindy's "happy pills."
I wish he'd gotten hold of some denture adhesive while he was at it. Shaying Sharah Palin doeshn't make him shound any lesh shenile.
Mitt/Palin is obvious. The eternal candidate for President and the eternal candidate for VP.
Epic/Fail 2012!
But she won't wait until election day like she did in 2008. With a President elect who is six decades younger than it will be more difficult then the 2008 plan where she was going to perform the Wasila Wassel on him and tell the EMS team, "I don't know what happened, he just said Heng and fell into the jacuzzi."
Rome wasn't built in a day; likewise, their whole lives are FAIL.
Somebody saw the movie Game Change.
All these potential running mates have the necessary gravitas? Yet none of them was dumb enough to run for the GOP nomination. Mittens will end up with Brutus (aka Newt).
Chris Christie has the necessary gravity, anyway.
Gravitas, or gravy-ass?
The Eskimos used to put their old people out on ice floes when they got tired of them. It's an idea; just throwing it out there.
Even the ice floes don't deserve this.
"Ice floes" … is that what the Eskimo Senate is called?
I thought it referred to Palin's menses.
I think global warming has put paid to this practice. Maybe we can strap Walnuts to a drowning polar bear.
Someone's Alzheimer's is acting up again and making him forget how that woman tanked his chances of winning four years ago.
He has loser stamped on his forehead before he picked her but she really finished him off.
We're all laughing now – at least until Romney picks Michele Bachmann.
Or Haliburton.
I love her movies.
Corporations are people … or am I stating the obvious?
Or Charles Koch.
You're kidding, right? A Romney/Bachmann ticket would be the most hilarious thing to happen to a presidental campaign since the last time Newt Gingrich opened his mouth.
Cheney, has a new heart! Don't count that evil Fucker out!
Mitt should pick Cheney to head the VP decision process, that would work.
Then he could pick himself like last time, since that worked out so well (for them, but not us).
Everybody get complacent!
…he had spoken to Palin about this, the Arizona senator said, “No, I haven’t.”
Just like in 2008
Thanks, waitstaff. I'll try the veal.
It's a toss up between Sarah Palin and a millstone around Mitt's neck.
How about a mill stone around SP's neck. And, a long walk on a short Alaskan pier. Until she is…pierless.
Or a squawking albatross.
Wow. Just wow.
Great idea McCain, and the definition of insanity is definitely not doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. No sirree!
I've always thought that doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result was the definition of stupidity.
Your move, Bill Kristol.
Mitch Daniels could make a fortune on Lifetime portraying a serial killer.
Sobbing. That is priceless. Really.
Funny as a kick in the nuts with a sharp stick.
"Take my VP…please!"
*rimjob*
I, uh, don't think rimjob is the word you're looking for…
clank
I'm 95% certain that that was the correct term.
Uh…Senator McCain…are you…are you feeling alright?
I kinda love him for this. He knows he may very well have gotten Obama elected by picking Shrilly McCuntycunt, and yet, he can laugh about it. I don't think he really likes the current Republican party.
Funny enough, most of my friends were on board with voting for McCain over Obama (in Rhode Island, no less), right up until the moment he took off his Angry Centrist hat and put on his Crazy Republican hat. Palin was the icing on the 'fuck you' cake.
It just keeps getting funnier and funnier every time I see it.
"should be Sarah Palin"
That is a heenghing offense in some parts.
Oh for fuck's sake. Show biz for ugly people, indeed.
Not funny. Can you imagine another 2 or 3 election cycles with this twat? So, yeah, go fuck yourself, Walnuts.
Excellent pic for a lecture on the three spatial axes of rotation.
Nice to know he's still treating the whole VP selection process seriously.
Not nearly as offensive as W's video about his dog searching the White House for WMDs, thats cold, like "so, hey, I fucked up, I killed a couple hundred thousand people over a big mistake, oops, ha ha," you know what I mean? OK, he created a monster, but he didn't start a war, and he lost the election, and he can laugh about it.
Didn't the Iraqi defector who brought the WMD story to light give an interview admitting that he made the whole thing up?
"We've got a wealth of talent out there." No. No, you really don't.
Sarah Palin™ is even more qualified than she was back in 2008. She has several more months experience as governor. Plus she's a grandmother now.
Sarah Palin=Funny Joke. Took McCain a few years to figure it out, but he's old…
It won't be Newt, because Mittens knows Newt would murder him in his sleep to become President.
Though, his hair would protect him if Newt choose the "pillow" method.
Would that be going "down"?
MILLARD FILLMORE LIBEL!!!!
Hmm, McCain is right. So many good choices. Well, we are talking about a VICE president, right? So whose is the bigger vice: Palin's vanity or Christie's gluttony?
Answers itself.
tom's foolery?
We told them it would trickle down! Ha ha ha h ha!
This is news for John McCain.
So…I take it Shelly did not put out for Walnuts after he hosted that fundraiser for her, and this is his revenge? Some people don't handle rejection very well…
POW PTSD + Alzheimer's + Regular Cindy Exposure + Reading Megan's Tweets (and Playboy interview) = Meet the REALLY crazy John McCain.
Best alt-text ever!
Palin can become the Harold Stassen of Running-Mates.
THOSE are your top tier candidates Walnuts? Christ, no wonder you went with the then-unknown screechy snowbird.
It wasn't funny the first time, Senator.
Put her on the ballot now so she has time to quit by Labor Day….
Jan Brewer, the esteemed governor of the great state of Arizona, is putting a surveyor's mark on Sarah.
If you look closely at that video you'll see McCain blinking his eyes a lot. He is signaling, in Morse Code, "I'm being tortured to say this by William Kristol."
Will this kick off a yammerblast on McCain on the next Today show, for his not aptly treating this idea with the proper gravities as we have often not seen from the standpoint, from the perspective, where the media has taken this forward, and though it echoes and resonates and appeals with the common real folks out there in America. These kinds of libel, we have all seen before, and standing for it is not something Americans are apt to continue to let stand, as Mister McCain will find out, too.
As to those who would write and speak in this stilted, English-as-a-Second-Language style, I would say that man doesn't appear to believe that America is the greatest earthly force for good the world has ever known, also.
T.
Doesn't Christie kind of count as two candidates?
He'll have to be standing on the GWB or Jerseyites wouldn't be able to vote for him without violating the Twelfth Amendment.
Some of Tiger Woods' ex-girlfriends ought to make McCain's list of "top-tier candidates."
I'm betting on Chris Christie because his tits are even bigger than Palin's…
“I think that we have some very qualified candidates. Obviously, Marco Rubio is in the top tier, Chris Christie, there are a number of candidates we have out there, Bobby Jindal, Mitch Daniels. We have a wealth of talent right there, and I’m sure that Mitt will make the right choice,” he said.
Rubio barely made it past two very weak opponents in Florida, co-sponsored the Blunt amendment, the Ryan budget makes him get a boner and he doesn't give a shit about any browns who didn't get here by floating along the Florida straits in a DIY raft. Christie, McDonell and Haley are extremely unpopular in their respective states. Their approval ratings have been stuck at forty or below. Jindal makes Romney look like the life of the party. Daniels? Wait until the baggers find out he was George W Bush's budget director. Walnuts apparently knows fuck all about picking winners for the VP slot.
Romney could go with the moneycon Walnuts! should have picked, Rob Portman — from bellwether Ohio, & pleases the socialcons enough.
I am thinking another out of right field choice, a la Palin, though. Maybe Washington State gubernatorial candidate FAIL Dino Rossi, darling of the Teabagging Right, or former TX member of the House, Henry Bonilla. (For the Messican angle, without being a woman & anchor grand baby like Susana Martinez, or too much like Mitt, like Brian Sadoval.)
You may have seen this before, but I freekin' love this video of McCain and $arah Palin – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qUVQDmLf7s
I think it is awesome that McCain likes to joke about picking such a comical inept person to be a heartbeat away from the presidency. But then, I suspect the RNC chair from 2008 does the same thing about McCain.
Yeah, I've committed some serious fuck-ups in my day too, Walnuts. Not as bad as you, but pretty bad. It helps to laugh about them. Go ahead, I'm happy.
He really piles on the make-up like a trollop. The cunt!
Hmmmmmm….I didn't know he could still laugh.
That's how she campaigned. She was actually known at the time for governing as a relative moderate. I remember people talking her up as a future star very early in her governorship because of her assumed common-sense governing. Of course, we later find out what she was doing behind the scenes, but she was not one of the fire-breathing conservatives before her ascension as a VP pick.
