Here are events that have the same odds as the chance that Palin will need to assume the office in McCain’s first term:
# Kobe Bryant hitting two consecutive three-point attempts.
# On your next try, pulling a red M&M out of the bag.
# A rainy day in El Paso or San Diego.
# That you will be delayed on two consecutive flights into Newark Airport.
# Escaping jail in Monopoly by rolling a double.
# That your birthday falls on a Wednesday.
# That a hurricane hits Louisiana in any given year.
Those are the odds - about 1 in 6 - that McCain will die in his first term.
“…Social Security Administration's statistics would tell you that the odds of McCain dying in the next four years are about 1 chance in 6 or 7.”
