McCain's Next Hail Mary? ROTF!

[Orange_Juice]

In an election campaign notable for its surprises, Sarah Palin, the Republican vice- presidential candidate, may be about to spring a new one -- the wedding of her pregnant teenage daughter to her ice-hockey-playing fiancé before the November 4 election.
Inside John McCain's campaign the expectation is growing that there will be a popularity boosting pre-election wedding in Alaska between Bristol Palin, 17, and Levi Johnston, 18, her schoolmate and father of her baby. "It would be fantastic," said a McCain insider. "You would have every TV camera there. The entire country would be watching. It would shut down the race for a week."

What next? McCain will pull a rabbit out of his hat to rally the right wing base?

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher who's hand was caught in the gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Palin and her bid.

The old rancher said, "Well, ya know, Palin is a 'Post Turtle'".

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.

The old rancher said, "When you're driving down a country road you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top - that's a 'post turtle".

The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued to explain. "You know she didn't get up there by herself, she doesn't belong up there, and she doesn't know what to do while she's up there, and you just wonder what kind of dummy put her up there to begin with".

it's funny that the right wants Palin's family left alone but they certainly see nothing wrong with exploiting this girl.

I'm sure watching Bristol Palin waddle down the asile ready to pop would be must see tv....

The daughter of the President of the United States just got married this year. No one paid attention. Why would a pregnant 17 yo girl get attention for someone who isn't even our VICE president?

Free Levi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is really a marriage made in heaven. My word, you would think this getting pregnant before you're married runs in the family or something.

Because the media coverage would be free and the McCampaign will be low on funds.

Have the young folks set a date yet? Is Halloween open? Sarah can go as Tina Fey!
