The Man in the Ruby Slippers

Ultimately, of course, aside from the irreparable damage she's done to Alaska, Sarah Palin is just Dogmeat and John McCain is just the Man in the Ruby Slippers. Feed the frenzy, Sarah. What else have you done to damn yourself to the footnotes of history?

McCain looks every inch the proud bomber pilot, I'll have to admit. With any luck at all, he'll outrun the firestorm before it engulfs him. But John McCain has never been lucky. My guess is, he'll be shot down by friendly fire from his own right flank.

Clap, America! Clap, if you'd like to send them both home...
