Sarah Palin will be in Georgia this coming Monday to campaign for Saxby Chambliss, in the final day of campaigning before the Georgia Senate runoff.

Despite Chambliss leading in the polls, the GOP is leaving nothing to chance because right now they sit at a pathetic 40 Senate seats. Certainly Palin's down home stupidity accompanied by the racist overtones she projects when speaking, appeals to the GOP base in Georgia.

BTW, Chambliss is the same guy who in 2002 questioned triple amputee Max Cleland's patriotism...Chambliss and Palin make a real cute couple.

One of McCain's own aides characterized the Palin family as.. "Wasilla hillbillies looting Neiman Marcus from coast to coast"

Right, so now its okay to use cultural slurs. I guess that means I can refer to Obama as a house negro and thats okay too.

"Hillbilly" is not even in the same league as "house negro."

Oh. I didn't know that.

What McCain aide was dumb enough to say that - or at least say it publicly?

It was in the Newsweek article in reference to the infamous 150,000 shopping spree.

That's just dumb. Funny, but dumb.

And by the way, it should read TYPICAL PALIN SUPPORTERS

Should I post a picture of a couple homosexuals french kissing, with a caption, "Typical Obama Supporters"?

Or maybe - just maybe - we should ALL refrain from such things?
