Because Alaska is Close to Russia
September 2, 2008
This is simply beyond hilarious. Watch as Cindy McCain bends herself into a pretzel suggesting to George Stephanopoulos that Sarah Palin has foreign policy experience because “Alaska is the closest part of our continent to Russia.” Ahh, leave it to Mrs. McCain to make Laura Bush look like a Rhodes scholar by comparison. The McCain campaign might consider keeping their prospective First Lady at motorcycle rallies and NASCAR races where she can best connect with their base—commenting on foreign policy doesn’t seem to suit her so well.
