The McCain camp has big trouble. Today the New York Times wrote the article every other newspaper wanted to buts was afraid to print. McCains judgment seems to be sorely lacking in his pick of Sarah Palin. Most obvious is the complete lack of vetting of the candidate. From the mixed reports coming from the RNC she was vetted, but probably only on Google. Now GOP operatives and lawyers are swarming in her home town in Alaska trying to find the other skeletons in her closet.
Little details like Palin being a member of a fringe secessionist party in Alaska really point to the lack of information McCain had when he picked her. The Times article points out that McCain said the FBI investigated her in the vetting process, but the FBI does not normally do that for a VP candidate. According to the FBI in a statement in the article, "F.B.I. official said Monday the bureau did not vet potential candidates and had not known of her selection until it was made public."
So who do we believe? McCain or the FBI? Personally I trust the Feds more than a desperate candidate who is looking for a gimmick to win the election.
