A "Palin"


Talking with a friend today, a man named Russell Gilfoy, about the upcomong election for President, Russell said there was only one choice since John McCain "pulled a palin".  He said John had added a new word to the language.  Instead of saying someone was "grasping at straws", just say he was "pulling a palin".  Who knows?  He may be right.  A "palin" may be just the word we need to describe unwise, intemperate, and/or foolish choices or actions.
