Ready, Shoot, Aim

The Sarah Palin story just gets curiouser and curiouser: (from Kevin Drum)
According to this Republican, who would discuss internal campaign strategizing only on condition of anonymity, the McCain team used little more than a Google Internet search as part of a rushed effort to review Palin's potential pitfalls. Just over a week ago, Palin was not on McCain's short list of potential running mates, the Republican said.
Seriously, who's running John McCain's campaign, a bunch of eighth graders?

Palin is a distraction. If this devolves into a personality contest between Obama and Palin, the Republicans will win.

Betting odds of Palin withdrawing has decreased.
