The Alaska state senator running an investigation of Gov. Palin had accused the McCain campaign of using stall tactics to prevent him from releasing his final report by Oct. 31, four days before the November election. "It's likely to be damaging to the Governor's administration," said Senator Hollis French, a Democrat, appointed the project manager for a bi-partisan State Senate Legislative Counsel Committee investigation.

The radical right won't care if Palin's image as a high-minded reformer and competent executive is tarnished. I think the rest of America will care, just as it will care about other hypocritical actions of Gov. Palin that may be revealed as the campaign progresses.

The selection of Gov. Sarah Palin shows John McCain's failure to properly vet her and his bad judgment. He went for a Hail Mary pass to save his fledgling campaign and he put the interests of the radical right ahead of the interests of our country. That's not what a hero does. His hero days are long behind him. He sold us out.

Let the chips fall where they may. McCain, regardless of his years of service, does not deserve to be our President.
