Here is my new theory. I believe the GOP NeoCons, like Rove, are working to make the best out of a bad situation. McCain is really not their boy. He is malleable to a point, but he is not the puppet that Bush is.
So they find Palin who already has puppet strings attached and she is more than willing to destroy the nation to achieve their NeoCon fantasies.
After McCain is in office, the unreal pressures of office will be applied, including internal pressures to get McCain to crack. If he doesn’t do something stupid on his own, some other psychological event could be faked and he would be forced from office for care in a mental facility. At this point, Palin is commander in chief.
After the past 8 years, I have learned these people are capable of anything.
Special Note: I will be giving a presentation at Adobe’s San Francisco 601 Townsend Street office on September 16th at 6:45pm. During the presentation I will chat about how I started the strip and show how I use Adobe’s software to create the strip along. Expect antics!
Print out your favorite TCD comic strip and I will autograph it!
The event is free and Adobe feeds you pizza! Seats are still available so RSVP HERE.

Great cartoon. Sarah Palin is a more frightening puppet than George W Bush. Iraq is God’s war – remember.
Good to hear the news about your Adobe presentation.

Frightening stuff, particularly in view of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment. See John Dean’s piece at http://writ.news.findlaw.com/dean/20080905.html.
The Vice-President and a majority of the Cabinet are all that is required to find the President incompetent, and install the Vice-President as acting President pending ratification of the action by Congress. It is easy to see McCain getting rolled by the Base to appoint a largely right-wing Cabinet. Add in a Republican filibuster in the Senate to prevent a vote on ratification, and you have President Palin for three years…plenty of time to wreak unbelievable damage.
