Lookin' Out My Back Door

If Sarah Palin's time in Alaska was so unanimously adored among Alaskans, and she was such a saintly executive leader, then why is the McCain campaign staff forcing all questions about Palin's time in office there or about Troopergate being diverted to the McCain campaign instead of state officials who were actually there? And now that she is the VP candidate, why is she refusing to comply with an investigation (Troopergate) that she originally promised to comply with? The Anchorage Daily News has reported that even many Alaskans are incredibly frustrated that their governor has basically let the McCain campaign take over the governor's office. It doesn't sound like St. Sarah is such a reformer after all.

Furthermore, if she's as uber-experienced as the McCain camp would have you believe, then why do they insist the VP debate have shorter question-and-answer sessions and less opportunity for exchange between the candidates than the Presidential Debates? I guess they want to avoid as many questions as possible about Doctrines.

Maybe if all the questions were about what you can see from your house they wouldn't be as nervous about a back-and-forth between the candidates.
