I thought that when you were running for public office, you wanted to stump. You wanted to campaign. You wanted to get yourself out there so people can know who you are and why they should vote for you.
Senator McCain selected Sarah Palin as his running mate because she has the experience and tenacity to be the President should anything happen to him... but she can't be seen in public? How am I supposed to believe that she is ready to be VP if she can't even be considered ready to campaign for VP?
Look, I'm all for woodshedding witnesses. But witnesses are not trying to sell you anything, particularly not themselves for a job. And even then, the witnesses must be presented. Sarah Palin is running for the second-highest elected position in the land, and she can't be trusted to speak? Or is it that she has not yet been fully informed of what her positions are?
This could be the king of flip flops. She's ready to be Vice President, but the next day she's not ready to be Vice President... Sounds like a winner to me, and sounds like John McCain's judgment is exactly the kind we need in a President.
Who can follow this story and not believe that Sarah Palin was chosen not because of her merits, but because she fit the suit?
Rather than try to expound on this any more and coming up short on quality, I will refer my readers to Vim and Vinegar's excellent post on this topic.
