I am starting to worry.

The speed with which the Sarah Palin scandal (for what else should we call it?) is unfolding is almost impossible to believe. Are we really supposed to believe that John McCain's vetting process for a potential running mate was less thorough than that required of one seeking a government security clearance? Are we really supposed to believe that he chose the person who will be a heartbeat away from the presidency after one fifteen minute meeting? Are we really supposed to believe that a campaign with Karl Rove on their payroll considered this to be the best way to reveal potentially damaging information about a candidate they plan to keep?

I know the GOP doesn’t put much value on competence, facts, or truth, but this is a little much, don't you think? I am starting to suspect this is all a trap.
