The Blame Game

A lot of folks, Democrats and Republicans alike, are trying to pin McCain's lagging numbers on a certain hockey mom who has been recently thrust into the limelight. While this is predictable, given the controversy surrounding the choice of Palin as McCain's running mate, I still feel that it is unfair. Hasn't this woman been through enough without also being faulted as McCain's downfall in the 2008 Presidential race? If I recall correctly, McCain was already suffering at the hands of Obama supporters well before vice-presidential nominees were announced, and I feel that his bringing Palin on board was a vital move in trying to keep his sinking ship AFLOAT by winning over more liberal-minded and/or female voters. So now, the cure becomes the curse. Just something to think about.
