I don't blame Palin. Sure, she was under qualified to be a potential president, and was woefully uniformed on national and international issues.
But, McCain was the jackass that picked her. Without vetting evidently.
That's the one and only job of a presidential nominee. To vette a qualified VP candidate.
McCain decided to take the low road, and make a rash decision to put a token, unqualified woman on the ticket.
He's the jackass. He's the one that gets the blame for being a moron.
I would really *love* to know the thinking in his mind, and the discussions that led to that pick.
It was so out of character. Of course, I assume certain things, like he wanted to rally the base. But I am so curious for specifics, like did he pick her truly believing she was qualified? etc. We'll never know what he was thinking, or what his aides advised him, but I wish we could.
