Are Palin's 15 minutes up? Or does she come back in 2012 and try to win the Republican nomination? Does McCain win in 2010 at the age of 74 for another term as Senator in Arizona, or is this the end? DD
I hope Palin's 15 minutes are up but I can see her running for Steven's Senate seat. She will never get the GOP nomination.
McCain will either retire or lose his reelection bid in 2010 to Janet Napolitano. Ted Stevens will win reelection but will be expelled from congress. There will be a special election to fill the seat for the remainder of the term. Palin will run and win. Alaska will take the title of dumbest state in America because them electing Stevens/Palin back to back.
I wish somebody had youtube'd the embrace between McCain & Palin last night and their spouses. It was the first time the scientific concept of "absolute zero" temperature has been captured on film.
I hadn't considered the possibility of Palin running for Senate. I figured she'd go back to being governor. I think she has no shot in the US executive branch anymore, but unfortunately she could win a congressional seat. And, she'd probably prefer it too.
I don't know about Governor Palin, but I felt happy for Todd last night. Dude has looked like he just wants to go home and take a nap in every public appearance I've seen him.
Almost every VP loser in modern history has evaperated from the national scene. I hope that's the case again. I gotta imagine that McCain retires. But who cares.
McCain will hopefully serve out his last two years in the Senate doing what made him a viable candidate in the first place - being an aggressive advocate/mouthpiece for certain key issues that transcend party lines. Then he'll retire and live well off of his Senate pension, his wife's money and the fees from the occasional speaking engagement. I hope Palin is voted out of the governorship and disappears from politics altogether.
Man...truer words. He always looked like the guy dragged to the opera when the game was on TV back home.
