A guest post coming your way soon on McCain’s odd choice. In the meantime, some links that have come my way:

Joan Walsh, “What Sarah Palin Means”
Gail Collins, “McCain’s Baked Alaska”
Kristen Powers, “A Brilliant Trap Makes the Dems the Male Chauvinists”
Jonathan Alter, “Why McCain’s Veep Choice Is Likely to Flop”

On other fronts, I’ll be offline for a bit. My other grandmother died last night. She was always in the know on all things political and pundit-ish and I often looked to her opinion to get a gauge on the world. For many other reasons, I will miss her very, very much.
