It hasn't taken comedians long to start jabbing at John McCain's new running mate Sarah Palin.  Palin is a female governor from Alaska.  Bill Maher offered up our favorite late night jokes about Palin so far:

"John McCain's VP pick is the Governor of Alaska, a unknown "Hockey Mom" named Sarah Palin that no one ever heard of before. The only other job she had in politics was as the mayor of a small town known as Wasilla, Alaska, and now she has the opportunity to be on a ticket opposite Barack Obama, the first black man she's ever seen."

Bill Maher went on to joke:

"This isn't a presidential ticket, this is a sitcom. The Maverick and the MILF."
