The jet sale is a meh. But what about her billing the state something like 216 days for staying in her own home?
I think the issue is not the individual items that keep cropping up on a daily basis ... rather it's the very fact that items keep cropping up on a daily basis.
I've never seen a vice-presidential candidate dominate the news so much. And it's potential scandal after potential scandal. Maybe the Republican base will see Palin as beleagured, but I think Johnny Voter is going to see her as Trouble.
Perhaps it was just plain stupid to pick a nobody, whom the press is just discovering. Biden likely has just as many skeletons, but those bones have long been picked over and the press doesn't care. Palin may be no more or less crooked than any politician, but the media is having a field day digging up stuff on a new pol.
McCain is a moron. And I think this evidence of his poor decision making ability is one of the worst markers for him making a good president.
