My guess is he’s a decent enough guy, just inexperienced. Problem is you have no luxury of being inexperienced at that level in Iowa during the Presidential season. He could have really damaged her campaign. I imagine this is all over O’Donnell coming - it was pretty stupid to shoehorn her in at the last minute and I’m more than a little torqued.
This is one of the downsides to being first-in-the-nation. With all the money and media scrutiny a simple little screwup at one little event could completely torpedo a campaign. Alot of people mean well and have good hearts, but you get no points for that at that level. All people remember is the candidate falling on their face.
How dare you inject sensibility into the mouth-foaming group think that this was a calculated attack on Palin by the MSM, Romney, Perry and the tooth fairy. /s
