Dem Veep Revealed

The candidate of change is at it again. This time he has announced his running mate and shocked the world with his choice.

Did he choose a woman? How about a Latino or Native American? Or maybe someone who has worked outside the system to bring about changes?

How about a gray haired white dude? Yep, Senator Joe Biden. How revolutionary! What better way to cause change than to select a running mate who matches the gender and ethnicity of every President and Vice President in the 230+ year life of this nation. What better choice than a former lawyer with a plastic smile who has followed in the footsteps of Strom Thurmond and Jesse Helms.

Ah, but he's Catholic. We've only had one of those before. And that ended well...

So far he's just the candidate of the staus quo. He should have picked Paris Hilton!

Uhh....if he'd picked a woman or a latino, wouldn't you just have accused him of pandering?

Picking Hillary would have been pandering. Other candidates I would have found other faults with since every human is full of them (and politicians aren't quite even human).

McCain is definitely pandering. Women everywhere should be insulted. But Palin is a fair representation of the average voter of either gender.

Al Gore pandered.

Mondale pandered.

So shut up Jake! All you do is bitch, bitch, bitch. Just because all politicians are crooks, liars, and scum doesn't mean you have to pick on them constantly. You're just pandering to the bitter disenfranchised.

Since said candidate avoided nuclear armageddon during the Cuban Missile Crisis, I'd say it went pretty well. I'd vote for him again, even if I knew he'd be assassinated after 3 years.
