The polls are in. McCain-Palin has made a bigger impression than anyone could have imagined and we now have a race. It's true that the difference has been Sarah Palin, BUT it's the combination of the two mavericks that's been most deadly. The two really complete each other, and McCain was truly incomplete before the convention when the Republicans were running HIM and not vice versa. Now that McCain is running the Republicans, the McCain campaign has seen a 10-point JUMP just over the weekend.
49% McCain
44% Obama
Whereas just last week (for most of last week) Obama had a 4-point lead in the polls until it had become tied on Friday. Of this doesn't just prove that McCain is very much back in the race. It does even more to prove to up and down nature of a presidential campaign. Especially this one, where substance is irrelative and the voters want to see something fresh, new, and exciting. But after 8 years of Bush, can you blame them?

JoeBama v. McPalin
Was it possible for McCain to actually score a home-run in his campaign against Barack Obama? Would anyone have perceived him wowing everyone enough to break the neck-and-neck(edness) of the election so far? The wait is over, as last Friday McCain finally unveiled what we all wanted to be the new first black female vice president under 40.
I absolutely LOVE this new Sarah Palin. She's great. She's also hot, as numerous periodicals have named her America's Hottest Governor. Contrary to Al Gore's sermons, her hotness is actually the single largest contributor to the Polar Ice Caps melting. She was runner-up for Miss Alaska, which would truly be 'Change We Can All Believe In.'
Mrs. Palin led her high school basketball team to the state championships. This caribou-hunting, snowmobile-loving, NRA-supporting, mama-of-5, moose burger-eating female governor also boasts a 90% approval rating throughout her 2 years as Governor of Alaska. She and her fisherman hubbie have 5 kids with names Bristol, Piper, Track, Willow, and Trig. She could win Vermont on that alone. Sadly, Trig was born with Down-Syndrome, giving her a unique understanding of America's medical establishment. As a mom with 5 kids and zero Washington insiderness, she also one-ups the "empathy" of Obama's economic plan.
Gov. Palin has brought incredible reform to Alaska. She defeated the special interests in Alaska that controlled everything in the 50th State. She's also a true maverick. Staunchly conservative, but with a mind of her own for fairness. Her first veto as GILF was a bill stealing benefits from same-sex couples in Alaska. She pulled the plug on the rediculous Bridge to Nowhere. She's a headlining member of Feminists For Life. She's proposed more taxes on the oil business in Alaska, but supports drilling in ANWR. Democrats call her inexperienced while she has more experience than their presidential candidate. She used to smoke marijuana while it was legal in her state (she's since grown up). She's an excellent motivational speaker. By leading the construction of new pipelines in Alaska, she's done more to secure America's energy independence than any Democrat.
The VP spot is the first real decision that a president makes. Obama chose waffler Joe Biden aka "1% Joe" (although he actually got less than 1% in Iowa). Joe has been in Washington as a typical liberal Democrat operative ever since Sarah Palin was 9, which was about the same time that McCain checked out of the Hanoi Hilton. What's odd about the JoeBama ticket is that Obama makes Biden look presidential (and vice versa, Biden makes Obama look vice presidential). On the other hand McCain went with someone that few people knew about and selected someone he admired, a true maverick, an inspiration for young women, and someone that we know will take on special interests in Washington in the same way that John McCain always has, pissing off Republicans and Democrats left and right.

Paris Hilton 2008
I don't know if the glass is half full or half empty. Perhaps Hollywood isn't so bad if it has better politicians than Barack Obama. Or maybe that just speaks to what a joke Barack Obama is. If you haven't seen Paris Hilton's actual response to one of the recent McCain ads, not only does she show Obama how it's done, but she also puts that wrinkly old man in his place. The presidential race takes the strangest twist of all as McCain's spokesman told TMZ of all formidable media outlets that, "on national energy policy, Paris is actually deeper than Barack."
OK, I'm sorry, but if your campaign's chief spokesman is talking to TMZ, who is the celebrity now?? "Paris can be my energizer bunny!" Sorry, but McCain is officially a creepy old man as of now.
But pardon me for a second, but didn't she just propose John McCain's exact energy policy? Offshore drilling + environmental oversight + alternative energy research + tax breaks for hybrid vehicle development (Obama's version of a 'tax break' is that he might not hit hybrid development with new taxes like everything else) .. certainly sounds like McCain's proposal. On the other hand Obama energy policy suggests Americans keep their tires properly inflated, and of course proposes new taxes on everything under the sun.
It shouldn't be at all surprising since the Hilton family have actually been McCain donors and supporters, believe it or not. Until now of course, with the Hilton family calling the McCain campaign "a complete waste of money," in the wake of using Paris' image to lampoon Obama. But apparently, Paris is honored, if you saw her response. And maybe that's not even a bad thing. Think about it, at least The Simple Life had higher approval ratings than the Bush Administration, so it couldn't be any worse than that.
That's hot.
