John McCain knows buffalo chips.

John McCain at Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, making a joke about how his wife should run for Miss Buffalo Chip.

So, what are the requirements of Miss Buffalo Chip, you might ask?! Well, it helps if you can do this... (which, incidentally, is probably not safe for work.  Oh, and I hear in the comments that the beauty contest has also got a mandatory topless element to it as well.)

Although Mrs. McCain seems to be fine with the idea of being Miss Buffalo Chip, I don't think Nancy Reagan would've cared much for the idea. Not very First Lady-liike.

Clearly, the McCain campaign feels that women voters' love for pickles will offset any feelings of revulsion that they might otherwise experience...  I mean, sure, it's a little bit misogynistic, but that doesn't mean they aren't really good pickles!
