Republican Presidential Candidate and Arizona Senator John McCain chose his Vice Presidential running mate for the upcoming election. In a move that was of little surprise to anyone, he went with Condoleezza Rice.
In a statement from Washington D.C., where he made the announcement, McCain said that "I feel that with Condi we take away the Obama black solidarity and the Clinton woman solidarity in one move. I think that this gives me more balance on the ticket than anyone has ever had."
"Keeping with the Bush tradition, I also have someone connected to big oil so that they can keep their finger in the pie and continue running our country and our economy into the ground without White House interference."
"Besides, someone needs to bring us coffee and dump the ashtrays in the cabinet meetings. Who better than a black woman? I think this is genetic with them."
