Update: Palin’s going rogue, which is even worse for McCain:

Worse, some of his advisors think McCain made a mistake in picking her:

Hello readers,
Well, it appears that John McCain and Sarah Palin are having a go at one another. She’s stolen the thunder from under him and he’s too much of a gentleman to stand up to her. Worse, she likes to incite crowds against Obama:

I bet McCain regrets having a “Pitbull in Lipstick” as his running mate!
In my opinion, the GOP has set McCain up, so to speak. The Republicans knew that because of the disastrous presidency of George W Bush, no Republican could win the presidency in 2008; hence, they’ve USED McCain as a sacrificial lamb and are testing the waters with Palin for 2012.
I pity McCain–he’s served his country only to be used and abused by his own party.
What do you think about McCain’s (vs. Palin’s) styles? Do you think McCain is a victim?

Hi Carol,
Thanks for your comment. It’s a shame about McCain–if he doesn’t win next month, he’ll be all but history with the GOP, which will blame him for the defeat (despite the incumbent president’s culpability). Worse, the GOP seems poised to elevate Palin and her “pitbullish” mentality.
Have a wonderful Sunday!
Bobbi
