Go Sarah Go Sarah Go Sarah Go

Oh Sarah  - we hardly knew you...oh wait, that is what the McCain vetting folks are singing.

Tomorrow's Washington Post will report that the McCain camp did not even start vetting her until Wednesday, one day before she was offered the job. This is less time than you would take to vet a cabinet member.

Did anyone notice that she has had no public presence since Friday?  Let' face it, they are busy:

  • She doesn't just need prepped, she needs taught most of the issues before they could ever let her out in front of the press. That is a hell of a lot to learn.
  • She is still the Governor of Alaska and has things to attend to.
  • She has a 4 month old downs syndrome child that needs attention. I am not saying this in a sexist way, she is needed by her child.
  • She has hired a lawyer and is currently under investigation.
  • Oh yes - she has to plan a wedding.

I am being partially sarcastic, but I feel a bit bad for this woman. She has a lot to manage in the weeks ahead. I wouldn't want this responsibility.
