Ya know, I’d given McCain the benefit of the doubt when he refused to bring up things in Obama’s past (didn’t agree with it, though) as being “too gentlemanly”. I guess I can now throw that theory right out the window.
What kind of man uses a woman (a GOOD woman, at that!) as a shield? What kind of man not only ALLOWS but tacitly PARTICIPATES IN the kind of attacks we’ve seen? I know he didn’t want her in the first place, but couldn’t he at least show her the same respect as he’s shown Hillary and the rest of the Dems he’s so fond of rubbing elbows with? He only becomes righteously indignant and takes action when Nicolle Wallace is being “trashed”?
Palin worked her butt off for him and this is the way she’s repaid!?! I’ve had a donation to the RNC sitting on the table waiting to be mailed. I was going to send something in honor of Sarah. Now, all they’re getting is a nasty letter. It’s an insult to every woman who voted for him as far as I’m concerned.
You see, I think that McCain’s huge ego allows him to most likely blame Sarah for his own missteps and unwillingness to tell us the whole truth about Obama. His lack of recognition about the dangers of a Marxist in that position is just startling to me. . and I wonder why he did not stand up and call names and point out the Democrats who voted against HIS OWN bill that could have dealt with this whole Fannie/Freddie mess in 2006. I also have to wonder, what are they holding over his head that silenced him on the whole truth about this Chicago thug we got. No. I think he will continue to delude himself that we need to be more “inclusive” and just become Democrat Socialists in order to draw more “Independents” under the Big Tent.
Heck, the media and Democrats voting in the Pub Primaries will probably wheel him out and run him again in 2010 in a mock election just so it will look like Obama has some competition. I wish now that Sarah had just said “NO” and let McCain run Lieberman as V.P. (Sore/Loserman - remember that pair?)
