I'm starting to think she might be better as the head of the ticket.
And, frankly, that ain't good. What was McCain thinking? Or not.

Here's something else to ponder...where the hell has she been the last
few days? Answer: pretty much in hiding, since the GOP's ringleaders
don't want her facing the media...yet.

I'm more worried about McCain. He had months to make this decision.
Reports have it that he wanted either Lieberman or Ridge, but the fundies
promised a floor fight. Geeze, if he can't even stand up to members of
his own party. Some Maverick.

Picking Palin looks impulsive... and flawed.

It was impulsive. He met her *once* some months ago before calling her
on the phone and offering her the job. Hell, I spent more time and gave
more thought to the company I hired to fertilize my lawn than McCain
spent deciding up a running mate.
