I'm going to be honest here:
I have always wanted to be a mugwump.

    All I know about mugwumps is that they're mentioned in a Mamas and Papas song, so I dunno if Sarah Palin is a mugwump, but she's certainly a whack job.

      I don't think she's a whack job. I think she's done a better job than Joe Biden. But I'm not really focused on her. I'm more focused on the actual McCain-Obama race.

        I'm not crazy about Joe Biden, but I'm more concerned about the possibility of Sarah Palin becoming president because McCain is 72 and has had four bouts of cancer. I think choosing her as a running mate was the worst decision McCain has made in this campaign.

  ok, there is no excuse for ignorance on the internet;
  so i looked it up.
  
  The Mugwumps were Republican political activists who supported Democratic candidate Grover Cleveland in the United States presidential election of 1884.

    It was banned for a long time.

    There is a scene called "Me at the Bar" where our whimsically wasted protagonist talks to a "Mugwump"

        Hmmm...Well I guess you admit to single mindedness of purpose.
        
        Is that supposed to be relevant to this discussion?
        
        You want to focus on angry men full of fear?
        
        We were discussing banned literature and book burning.
        
        Your Pal Sarah is a big fan of it.

        So what? I've said far worse (and heard far worse) while in Vietnam. And since. The effort is to keep this country from being run off a cliff. Been there, done that. Hurt like hell.
