CHICAGO, IL - In yet another startling revelation regarding Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, sources close to the campaign of Democrat nominee Barack Obama have discovered that Palin is good looking, and has been most of her adult life. The news underscores Obama's claim that Palin is not suited for Washington politics, and raises further questions about McCain's decision-making abilities.
Democratic leaders were quick to respond to the discovery. "She's much too attractive to be a serious politician." said Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. "And quite frankly it's an insult to all women for her to look like that after having five children."
"One look will tell you how inexperienced she is." said California Senator Dianne Feinstein, a long time advocate for unappealing women. "It's not hard to distinguish those of us who have been here in Washington for decades."
The news also resurrects questions about McCain's vetting process during the selection of Palin for his running mate. When asked directly if he knew Palin was a babe, McCain replied that he "hadn't really noticed." Aides privately concede that the question was never even raised during the interview process.
Obama, speaking to a group of unattractive gender study professors at UC Berkley, summed up the predicament faced by McCain's campaign. "They [Republicans] want to put her one heartbeat away from the presidency. Is America ready for a President with hot librarian good looks? I don't think so."
