Before the Western Union telegram, the McCain campaign was considering sending smoke signals to announce the VP pick.

You must have missed the smoke signals. (Although I think the Pony Express guy got held up somewhere between Juneau and Dayton.)

It's Dayton. You can't distinguish the smoke signals from the normal smog, save possibly that they're lighter.

Do a satire with Palin as Wilma Flintstone or Betty Rubble. There is an amazing resemblance.
An animal skin mini with rock earrings would be appropriate. Her husband also looks primitive.

The most memorable part of Obama's speech was the "you're on your own" repeats. I was amazed. Here is a guy running for President and he doesn't under stand that yes, indeed, you are on your own! I don't want you to take care of me and I surely don't want to take care of you! That's just the way the world works!

No Betty Rubble required -- Tina Fey. SNL -- go live now.
