In a first of what will probably be many, many revelations about the unfortunate pick of Sarah Palin as running mate, this interview between Fox News' Shepard Smith and Carl Cameron is particularly stunning.
Among the accusations put forth by the McCain campaign:
Palin did not know Africa was a continent, but thought it was a country.
Palin did not know which countries are in NAFTA. (That's the North American Free Trade Agreement. You could probably guess the countries, could you not?)
Palin was prone to blame and anger.
Palin refused to prepare for her disastrous Katie Couric interview.
While many on the right who are devoted to the notion of Palin for Pres in 2012 are swearing revenge against McCain staffers who spread these stories, it seems to me that the McCain campaign would have no interest in exaggerating how bad their veep pick was. Check it out:
My pendulum has swung back to life on the home front and things have actually gotten too ugly and I am too dispirited about politics. But as is the nature of life, that means that interesting things are afoot in the old personal life as I go through a growth spurt.
