Biden, Palin – 2 FOR 2
A week and a half a go I said “Joe Biden“. Why? Older, Presidential-looking, liberal, foreign policy credentials. And, uh, white male.
For McCain, I was on the Romney train before that, but then I watched the Fox News show, Geraldo at Large.
McCain Senior Policy Advisor Nancy Pfotenhauer said, and I paraphrase — Not only is not vetting Hilary Clinton a slap in the face to her and her supporters, BUT it is a SLAP IN THE FACE TO ALL WOMEN.
Geraldo missed it. So did everyone else on the panel (she said it right before the commercial break).
I DID NOT MISS IT.
I said: McCain is going to pick a woman. Then I started thinking about which one. I figured, Pro-Life, younger (in a reasonable age range to be President), credible (Sarah Palin has amazing credentials as a corruption fighter, RUNNING AGAINST HER OWN PARTY – SOUND FAMILIAR?). Then there’s the whole credibility vis-a-vis oil drilling. So I said “Sarah Palin”.
All my political friends said I was nuts.
We are on the verge of finding out if Paul has finally gotten good at calling these things. Stay tuned.
