On my Maverick thread, I note that Jizo-Sama has posted an article that I really enjoyed.  It talks about the source of the word “maverick” and how the family from which it came doesn’t connect with McCain - or his policies - at all.

“It’s just incredible - the nerve! - to suggest that he’s not part of that Republican herd. Every time we hear it, all my children and I and all my family shrink a little and say, ‘Oh, my God, he said it again.’ ”

Palin is addicted to this word.  I am SO tired of hearing it.  Perhaps if it were true, I might think otherwise.
