It is about time a Republican got a backbone and told the truth about Palin.

There's too many people with too much "experience."

Would you not want your doctor and accountant to have experience?  How about the mechanics who work on your car or the plumbers and electricians who worked with the contractor who built your home?

Seems to me, we lost all sense of truth in politics some time ago.  There are faults with both sides, yet neither is wiling to admit to mistakes they both have made.

Jeez, just a little honest talk would be nice, but it seems they have learned that being honest does not pay off

That he is honestly addressing this VP candidates unfittness for office or that some Republicans refer to him as a RINO...just asking?

Status: offline 		Yeah, these days, anyone coming close to being "moderate" is tarred and feathered it seems. Yet, this is the only reason McCain is doing as well as he is... he's great at faking a moderate stance in public, but being a typical greedy republican asshole once he's in an office... and with a temper to boot.
