The Woman Who Beat McCain's VP

John McCain's VP Governor Sarah Palin hasn't lost the election yet, but she did lose the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant to Maryline Blackburn, coming in second.

According to her website, Maryline "is a singer with a wide spectrum of performing experiences." Maybe she'll perform at the RNC in St. Paul on Monday.

1. Liberals alway gotta hit below the belt to make their point. Let's have you run another column on John Edwards or Bill Clinton's "girlfriends". LOL ...

Be respectful and get over it!

2. TMZ... WTF? Can you be any MORE slanted (or political) in your coverage? Most of us come hear to read the "light news" about celebrities' lives. If we want political slanting, we can go check out CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, or FOX. Grow up!!

12. This is outrageous! Who does John McCain think he is? He picks some under qualified nobody with hardly a political record to speak of. Absolutely horrific and a complete slap in the face to Hillary Clinton who has worked tirelessly for YEARS to make a strong name for herself. This decision is absolutely horrific and disgusting.

13. YOU PEOPLE KILL ME. YOU ARE MAD AT WHAT TMZ IS POSTING; THIS IS WHAT THEY DO DUMB AZZES! IF YOU DONT LIKE IT DONT GET ON THEIR WEBSITE DUH! IT IS FUNNY YOU GUYS HAVE NO PROBLEM WHEN TMZ POST SOMETHING NEGATIVE ABOUT OBAMA THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS

15. I could care less about some beauty contest that took place years ago. She just gave an awesome speach!!! This is a great choice for McCain. I was 90% sure he had my vote, now it's 100%. If she can raise 5 kids, be involved in their activities, take on big oil companies and run a state, she can handle the white house. Really- you guys need to grow up... this is important!!!
