Hey kids: can you say "self-destruction"?

You remember that documentary about the Clinton campaign, The War Room? Fascinating film, if you haven't seen it.
Reason I bring it up is this: How delicious if we could see a War Room-style documentary following the McCain team. I bet those buses and planes are like the Berlin bunkers nowadays.

I wonder if we're going to see the numbers bottom out. For instance, Bush's approval is at around 18%, which means that one in five people are going to be team players, no matter what. If McCain pulls 40% of the vote after all this shit, does that mean that Obama's maximum support is going to be 60%, at its very best?

When Sarah was selected it began a chain of events that, I believe, can only end in the complete destruction of the GOP in 2012, 2016 at the latest. There will be a schism and it will be beautiful. This tongue-speaking bimbo is going to fucking run for President! For realsies, no dealsies! It's going to be hysterical.

Yes, only 60%. Try to drop all statistics from your future remarks. Thanks.

"She is a diva. She takes no advice from anyone," said this McCain adviser. "She does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family or anyone else.
"Also, she is playing for her own future and sees herself as the next leader of the party. Remember: Divas trust only unto themselves, as they see themselves as the beginning and end of all wisdom."
"She's not known for burning the midnight oil on in-depth policy issues," said Larry Persily, a former journalist who was associate director of the governor's Washington office until the spring.
But those who know her say Palin, 44, is uncommonly deft at something else: sensing the mood of her constituents, shaping her public messages and harnessing a remarkable personal popularity to accomplish what she wants. "She has an incredible pulse on the public will," said Bruce Botelho, a Democrat who is mayor of Juneau, the state capital.
"She tends to . . . create a situation where legislators are cornered -- going against her would be political suicide," said John Bitney, who grew up with Palin, was her campaign policy director and became her first legislative liaison.
Dan Fagan, a prominent conservative radio host and longtime friend of Palin, urged his listeners to vote for her in 2006. But when he took her to task for raising taxes on oil companies, he said, he found himself branded a "hater."
It is part of a pattern, Fagan said, in which the governor characterizes critics as "bad people who are anti-Alaska." Since then he has been inundated with critical calls.
Oh you of little faith. With chops like that, clearly Palin will go far in this current generation of the Bush era Republican Party
