I still have to wonder what McCain was thinking...

...picking a running mate who is currently under investigation for abuse of power:

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin "hired a lawyer three weeks ago to act on her behalf as state legislators investigate whether she may have abused her power in firing the state police chief for refusing to fire her ex-brother-in-law, a state trooper," CNN has confirmed.

Meanwhile, NBC News reports that "there are Republican lawyers right now up in Alaska doing a deeper vet on Sarah Palin despite their claim that everything about her background was fully known."

I have to wonder just what kind of judgment McCain thinks he's showing in picking an unknown with possible issues that are still under investigation. This is "judgment"?

Scary...

But typical of the modern Republican Party.
