Palin was a political Hail Mary, a long bomb in the closing minutes of a game that John McCain and Co. were certain to lose. They didn't care if she had the policy or political or emotional capacity to serve as vice president, let alone president.

I don't like lyrics that are just thrown together, that were obviously written as you went along, or the song was already written and the guy made up the lyrics in five minutes. ↗

I sometimes lie, especially about personal things, because what does it matter? I am a kind of minute commodity, my name is no longer my own. ↗

A new gadget that lasts only five minutes is worth more than an immortal work that bores everyone. ↗
