The Real Loser in the 2008 Election

the RHINO INSTITUTE can't imagine what it's like to run a multi-million dollar national campaign. It also can't imagine what it takes to develop the ability to deny what every poll is telling you and believe you actually have a chance to win right up to the last minute. It's kind of inspiring while sad at the same time.

But, McCain and Palin had no choice and did what they were asked to do. They had to know it would take a miracle that had no chance of happening, but they pressed on. They may have lost the election, but just by running, they did what few of us will ever even come close to experiencing in our lives. So, they lost, but they're not the biggest loser.

No, the biggest loser title in this election goes to one Levi Johnston (pictured above with Bristol Palin).

the RHINO INSTITUTE offers this analysis: Just imagine being 18 again. You play hockey and shoot things when you're not getting drunk and all kinds of sweet Alaskan teenage tail. Unfortunately, you knock one of those hotties up, but no worries. It happens all the time. Just tell the next chick that the girl was crazy and you made a mistake and you're on to the next conquest. It's the Life of Federline only with more shooting of things.

Life was going great for Levi. Sure, he knocked up the Governor's daughter, but up in that vast unknown, that's probably more of a badge of honor than an embarrassment. Then it all came crashing down.

No one would have guessed that the mom of his soon-to-be-baby's-mama would be selected the VP candidate* bringing a national spotlight to his self-described redneck world. In exchange for some new clothes and a styled haircut, the poor guy had to publicly announce that he planned to marry the girl people up there refer to as "the loose one with the second most normal name."**

If this whole election thing wouldn't have happened, Levi Johnston could have escaped to Canada in a few years, but now we'll watch his every brain dead move for the rest of his life.

Congratulations, Levi Johnston, you lose in this life.

Next time wear a rubber.

*the RHINO INSTITUTE believes Palin was number six on McCain's list of VP candidates behind Giuliani, Huckabee, Powell, Rice, and Crist, but was the first to accept. Number seven was Ron Paul.

If I wanted to scan and bag my own groceries, I wouldn't have graduated high school.

Yikes!

On the left, the Civil War States (according to Wiki). On the right, the current 2008 presidential election results.
