The blockbuster story of this Sarah Palin debacle is that John McCain and his team simply didn't vet this candidate. He only met her once, spoke with her once, and only now is there a GOP team on the ground combing through records to see what other skeletons are in her closet.
This ultimately doesn't have anything to do with Palin -- it's about McCain's judgment and fealty to the fringe element of his party. What does this say about his leadership? Do you want a man without impulse control leading this nation?
