53 Percent of White Women Have Lost Their Minds

Well, the failure of Obama to pick Hillary as his VP choice is certainly starting to smart. According to the latest poll, there has been a 20 point swing among white women, in favor of McCain, since Sarah Palin was added to the ticket. Twenty Percent!

That stings.

Why? I have no fucking clue; surely, Hillary supporters have not jumped ship in favor of Palin? Surely, these white women understand that the only way we could actually go backwards from George Bush would be to have Sarah Palin as the President. Are these white women taking the risks that John McCain will survive all four years of his presidency? Have they not seen the toll that eight years took on the appearance of Bill Clinton and George Bush? And McCain is 72 years old. That's 312 in President years.

Abortion rights are fucked.

I'm terrified, folks. It's just occurred to me that a Sarah Palin presidency is actually possible now. That it may actually happen. That it's not just theoretical, "ha ha ha, wouldn't that be funny" bullshit. She may actually be the President of the United States! Sarah Palin. Who doesn't even understand what Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are. Who makes Dan Quayle look like a goddamn rocket scientist. Who compares herself to a pit bull with lipstick.

Oh, God. I think I'd rather keep Bush another four years. Hold me.

I just keep having to remind myself that, for a short time in 1992, Ross Perot led in all the polls. Serenity now. Serenity now.
