The price of not properly vetting

With all this talk of debates, let's look forward. From Ed Schultz:

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.”

McCain should be ashamed at what he's doing to this poor woman and her political future. Which is to say, destroying it.

But this is what happens when you choose someone to rep your set after only meeting them once before. I would say, "let that be a lesson," but no one with common sense would have even resorted to such a desperate move.
