All About McCain - Page 131

Seriously? Questioning how much she spends on wardrobe? Give me a break. These people don't have to look good - they have to look miraculous, no matter what they're saying about how they understand the common man. The problem I have with the accusations of "elitist" have nothing to do with this. It is not elitist for them to dress this way and it does not disqualify them from calling each other elitist.

John McCain is gonna unveil a new look, in a last ditch effort to get some younger voters...

Yeah, most people find American History boring.

CoasterMatt - is that pic of McCain photoshopped?

Palin said if she and husband Todd had had a sixth child, they had already picked a name for a boy joining siblings Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper and Trig.
"I always wanted a son named Zamboni," she said.

Ok, so maybe McCain didn't vote that way the full 90% but it's still enough for me to call shenanigans on his maverick claim.

Haven't seen Obama's record. I've only seen reports of a few votes.

Interesting tidbit - my friend saw something that Palin's name used to be Pall but it got changed at Ellis Island (like many names, including apparently one of my family's names). The intake people couldn't read their handwriting, and thought it was Pali but added an "n" so it wouldn't sound Italian. I wonder what derivation they are? I may have to look that up out of curiosity.

Oh yeah, that's where I saw it, on an Obama ad in Nevada.

Morrigoon · 10-23-2008, 10:07 AM

So I was on Twitter, and under the "hot political topics" links, one was Zamboni. Oh I HAD to see what THAT was about, LOL!

(Hint, it involves Palin and children)

edit: oops, I should read before posting, pbbbt.

At least she didn't want to name a girl Zamboni. It would give a whole new meaning to the Zamboni song....

I swear, they set my teeth on edge.

Is it just me or does McCain look super-tense the whole time she's talking, like he's just waiting for her to say something stupid?
