McCain's Palin Problem
Reality is starting to set in for the McCain camp. John McCain has a Palin problem.
She has relentlessly ducked the press and we’re beginning to find out why. Governor Palin held her own in her interview with Charlie Gibson, with the exception of not knowing what the Bush Doctrine is. She hit some softballs with Fox News, but then came off looking inept in her interview with Katie Couric.
Conservative commentator Kathleen Parker has come to the conclusion that Sarah Palin should bow out. Parker has come to the conclusion that Palin is not credible. Parker says:
Jack Cafferty reacted to the Couric interview of Palin by saying:
Talk show host Ed Schultz reports:
What to do, what to do? If John McCain throws Gov. Palin under the bus, he’ll prove the point that he is unstable. If he sticks by his guns, he proves that he’s inflexibly loyal to his friends and we certainly don’t need four more years of that behavior.
John McCain has a Palin problem and the more she talks, the worse it’s going to get.

If BS were currency, Palin could bail out Wall Street herself.
Jack Cafferty reacted to the Couric interview of Palin by saying:
If John McCain wins, this woman will be one 72-year old' heartbeat away from the presidency. And if that doesn’t scare the hell out of you, it should. I'm 65 and have been covering politics for a long time - that's one of the most pathetic pieces of tape I have ever seen from someone aspiring to one of the highest offices in the country. That's all I have to say.
Talk show host Ed Schultz reports:
Capitol Hill sources are telling me that senior McCain people are more than concerned about Palin. The campaign has held a mock debate and a mock press conference; both are being described as "disastrous." One senior McCain aide was quoted as saying, "What are we going to do?" The McCain people want to move this first debate to some later, undetermined date, possibly never. People on the inside are saying the Alaska Governor is "clueless."
What to do, what to do? If John McCain throws Gov. Palin under the bus, he’ll prove the point that he is unstable. If he sticks by his guns, he proves that he’s inflexibly loyal to his friends and we certainly don’t need four more years of that behavior.
