If McCain dumps Palin then he will enrage the Religious Right

It would be like giving them their favorite ice-cream then just before they get to taste it McCain would pull it away. You can't get their expectations up then tear their heart out. They would go NUTS! He would have to replace her with another Religious Right fanatic. If he doesn't the Religious Right will stay home by the tens of Millions and it will be a HUGE landslide beyond belief.


I think McCain is stuck with Palin. He is basically doomed!

3. yep, either way he's screwed, but I think he'll have to dump her
the onslaught of bad Palin news is just going to keep coming. And if picks someone like Pawlenty the religious right will stick with him.

9. McCain is SCREWN!11!1!!
He's between a rock and a hardplace chock full of fundy religious freaks!

Either he bails on her and shows he's impulsive and shitty at decision-making, or he's yoked to his joke of a New Coke candidate.

Such a shame, such a shame. I think I'll wring my hands now.

:rofl:

10. They'd never forgive him
No way they'd vote for him after that. He's stuck with her.
