On Palin, and whether or not taking care of the children are an issue w/r/t carrying out the job: Why aren't people asking what her husband will do if she wins this job?
Especially since, as far as I understand it, he's already the primary caregiver. And it's not like she wouldn't have significant support resources to call upon in the role, and a very ill-defined position to boot - as VP, she might be better placed than most people in America as far as taking care of her family goes.
I mean, I personally think she's appalling, and from the far outside a number of her choices seem highly questionable. But this idea that her family situation is ipso facto a bar to higher office is bullshit.

Hell, as VP, she'll have more free time than she's had in her whole career.

Well, at least until she figures out what the VP does.
That, and I'll bet anyone folding money that Levi has a haircut by the time he gets on stage with his new family tonight.

Yup, they got him a haircut. And dressed him & Bristol like they're middle aged. Also: Cindy McCain, lay off the orange dye on your legs, or I'll tell the Fug Girls.
So, I'm not done with the superficial for today...
That's my superficial thought for the day.
You limit yourself to one?
eta: HEE nice x-post

I just deny the rest as much as possible. What did you learn in law school?

ACK-- in that first picture, did it not look like McCain was reaching out to pat her belly??
And Cindy looks like a bad drag queen.
