In the last week, I have gone from snickering at John McCain's choice for veep, to wondering whether he actually intends to keep her. What if she demurely says "Under the circumstances, Mr. McCain, I feel I can no longer stand as this party's nominee for vice president."

He gets the points for suggesting a conservative and a woman. She gets press. Then he can go back to a secret Plan A and choose another old white guy, during the convention, and claim it's all to mend things up. He can back away from the baby scandals and the brother-in-law and the polar bears, and pick a less-Right guy more like himself, having "shown" that he supports women in high office.

At least "Trip" is a verb. I don't know what the hell "Trig" is. A typo? (Like you said? :)

Meh. I'm just old fashioned. I named my children Shirley, David, and Joshua. How ordinary!

"Trig" is part of geometry. At least there's not a child named "Drome."

You sure about that? LOL

Do you give any credence to the Grandson theory? (& that Bristol named the baby for her trigonometry class?)

Hadn't heard the part about trigonometry class; I was just being silly (hence the retread of my Palin, Drome joke.) I think somewhere I read that it was a family name (as if that excused a stupid choice; my SIL is named Sutton and her daughter Porter for that reason. *rolls eyes* )

I have no opinion about the "grandson theory" except that if Bristol really is 5 months pregnant, and Trig is hers, there's some very close timing involved indeed.
