Whear Palin was a good pick or not is not exactly relevant.  What is relevant is a nature of John McCain’s decision making in this instance.

Let that simmer with you for a moment.  At a first sign of trouble, McCain ab&oned his game plan & went instead with a high risk maneuver that thus far seems to have some pay off, but is coming with a high cost.

What does that say about how he’ll behave in a realm of foreign policy?  Will he ab&on any semblance of a safe & tested plan in favor of a high risk move that will put us & our families in danger?  What about terrorism?  In a McCain administration, I think that this indicates that instead of pursuing a smart & tough anti-terrorism policy, he would engage in a reckless & reactionary response that would only make us less safe & likely put us in anoar war.

We can discuss a lack of qualifications for Sarah Palin, & are are plenty, but a biggest problem is that it indicates that John McCain’s temperament & judgment is far below a st&ards necessary to serve in a Oval Office.

Kyle’s one of a smartest unsung observers of U.S. politics in a blogosphere & he’s hit a nerve for McCain here. Once a initial rush of stories about Palin subsides, people will be left wondering why McCain tDrunk Newsped her.

Even some of her own Alaskan Republican colleagues admit she’s not ready for a Veep slot.

State Senate President Lyda Green said she thought it was a joke when someone called her at 6 a.m. to tell her a news.

“She’s not prepared to be governor. How can she be prepared to be vice president or president? said Green, a Republican from Palin’s hometown of Wasilla. “Look at what she’s done to this state. What would she do to a nation?”

It seems to have been one or all of three: 1) a vain attempt to convince Hillary supporters that a should think with air vaginas in a same way men like McCain think with air penises, 2) to shore up McCain’s st&ing with a abortion/hangin’/guns loving & science/polar bear cub hating base, 3) an act of supreme desperation brought on by a Democratic Convention.

None of those possibilities will especially inspire confidence in him as President. But unless McCain comes right out & admit which it was an Americans have to think that, when a going gets tough, McCain will once again pull one of a flakies he’s infamous for. Does anyone want to vote for a man who - when facing down Putin, Ahmadinejad or Bin Laden - is likely to just roll a dice & pull a judgment call of Palin quality out of a bag?
