9. Words fail me in describing the monumental failure of John McCain regarding this woman.

Oops .... perhaps a few thoughts come to me.

John McCain was not the sharpest knife in the drawer with his selection of a running mate. Palin does not even achieve the level of knife. She is more like a spoon.

John McCain's elevator in choosing Palin does not go to the top floor. Poor Palin is stuck to the end of time in the basement.

John McCain's intellectual abilities in selecting a running mate are described as one brick shy of a full load. Palin's intellectual abilities are on the dock waiting to be loaded.

Remind me again why John McCain's opinion on political matters should carry any weight whatsoever.
