Breaking News: Palin Endorses Obama

In a bombshell development today, John McCain’s vice presidential running mate Sarah Palin announced that she is throwing her support behind Democratic Party nominee Barack Obama.

"After learning that Colin Powell, Tina Fey, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, the entire liberal media establishment, Republican Ken Adelman[1], Louis Farrakhan, Andrew Sullivan, Peggy Noonan, Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers and — yes, even Alec Baldwin — have all endorsed Barack Obama for president, did I really have any other choice?" Palin asked a stunned press corps at a campaign rally in Colorado Springs, Colorado. 

"Besides — let’s face it," Palin remarked "At this point his lead in the polls in insurmountable."

Asked whether she genuinely supports Barack Obama, given the attacks she has lobbed at the Democratic presidential candidate, and given her own status as John McCain’s vice presidential running mate, Palin seemed momentarily startled, then winked.  "You betcha!"
