Facts

A number of interesting facts on McCain and Palin:

• The number of homes owned by John McCain is larger than the number of months that have elapsed since he first met his new choice to be Vice President of the United States of America. (From The Jed Report- I'm not able to get a link to the post right now; I'll try again later)
• When John McCain started his 2008 presidential campaign Sarah Palin was not yet governor of Alaska. (From Matthew Yglesias, here)
• John McCain is 23 years older than the state of Alaska.(From Matthew Yglesias, here)
• How many days per year is the Alaska State Legislature in session? 90 days. (From Matthew Yglesias, here)
• My addition: The three points that have made the most traction for McCain are that Obama is 1) Young and inexperienced; 2) A pretty celebrity, and 3) unknowledgable about foreign affairs. He then makes his first important decision as a prospective president, and chooses as his potential replacement someone who is 1) younger and more inexperienced; 2) more of a pretty celebrity, and 3) less knowledgeable with respect to foreign affairs than Obama. He Shoots! He Scores! No points whatsoever!
