I have been saying this for weeks; Sarah Palin is a poisoned gift for the McCain campaign. The base's infatuation with her and McCain ads telling downright lies about Obama' record ("He will raise taxes on most Americans" and "He supported sex education for kindergardeners") are short term victories, because they gloss over the real issues in this campaign and the truth has a way of getting out. In the few times she has talk since her being picked she has shown that A) She doesn't know how Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae work (and how can you not know THAT at this juncture and B) She didn't even know what the Bush Doctrine was!
If McCain was the man he was in 2000 this would be a hard choice for many people but he is more of the same. No dice.
