I am no fan of Sarah Palin. I think she ran a revolting race and disgraced herself by becoming the mouthpiece for GOP smears and lies. That does not give that coward John McCain the right to send his minions out to the media to make her the fall girl for his failed campaign.
Since the end of the elections, some scurrilous factoids have been leaked to the media to embarrass Plain. The truth is the Republicans are only embarrassing themselves. Palin was being used to help John McCain win female and extreme right wing votes. They had no idea that she was dense as a tree stump. Months of cramming and rote learning could not compensate for Sarah's intellectual vacuity. There are five-year-olds who know more about the way the world works than Sarah Palin. The Republicans' master plan crumbled before their eyes.
Yes, she was a horrible candidate, but she was not running for President. John McCain ran the campaign.
The Republican brand has been mangled, and they are terrified that Sarah Palin will become the new face of the party. This will guarantee them an extended stay in the political wilderness, because the country wants to distance itself from thier stupidity. They wanted to use her to win; now they want to destroy her.
The media is obsessed with a post mortem of Sarah Palin. John McCain is slinking off into the darkness to watch the media and McCain 'insiders' gore Palin like a bull in a China shop. It’s time for McCain to act like a gentleman and come to her defense. I don't care if she was greeting staffers in a towel. John McCain, chivalry is not dead.
