McCain’s Judgment

Senator John McCainPut aside for a moment whether Sarah Palin is qualified or not to be Vice President. Does John McCain’s selection of Palin demonstrate the judgment required to be President? Not according to this this nugget from Sam Stein at the Huffington Post (emphasis added).

The McCain campaign has gone to great lengths to present the selection of Sarah Palin as one made after a careful, meticulous vetting process. But evidence continues to suggest that the Arizona Republican made his VP choice with surprising haste.

On Saturday, a Democrat tasked with opposition research contacted the Huffington Post with this piece of information: as of this weekend, the McCain campaign had not gone through old newspaper articles from the Valley Frontiersman, Palin’s hometown newspaper.

How does he know? The paper’s (massive) archives are not online. And when he went to research past content, he was told he was the first to inquire.

And there’s more. Read all of it.
