MCCAIN TO DUMB TO DEFEND HIS DUMB VP PICK!

FROM HUFFPO:

A McCain flack is grilled by CNN's Campbell Brown on Republican VP pick Palin and her questionable qualifications with regards to foreign policy. The zombie can only keep referring back to it's talking points. The fact is, governors rarely have much foreign policy experience since they govern one state. But McCain cancelled an interview on CNN because Campell's question's to his flack were "over the line"--ie: too hard and or with ugly answers.

Bookies are currently waging bets on whether or not McCain will drop Palin. I hope he does, even if it's for someone more popular. It's a win-win situation which can only make John McCain look prone to making huge errors. What I don't understand is how the religious right is supposed to react. Palin has proclaimed that she would not consider an abortion for her own daughter if her daughter became pregnant as a result of a rape! I know that fundamentalists cherish pro-life candidates, but don't they also frown on pre-marital sex and kids born out of wedlock? And I know that presidents have sired children out of wedlock, but this may be a precedent if the Republicans--I know, bite my tongue--win. What will they call the illegitimate brat--America's First Bastard?
