What Are McCain and Palin Afraid Of?

I noted last week that John McCain ducked out of appearing on the Larry King show because he was having a hissy fit about one of his flaks getting toasted by Campbell Brown.

Today, a day when all the candidates usually hit the Sunday talk show circuit, there was one name suspiciously absent from any of them--Sarah Palin.

NBC Evening news reported tonight that Camp McShame has also announced that it will be a while yet until they let Palin make solo appearances. That would indicate that they either have no confidence in Palin and are afraid she will put her foot in her mouth, or that she has topics that they are desperately trying to keep her from answering some embarrassing questions about her sordid past and all the lies that she has told in the short time that she has been under the nation's attention.

Either way, it is obvious that Palin was indeed a choice of desperation, and that McCain did not do a good job at vetting her before picking her as his running mate. It also raises the question that if he is not able to run his own campaign with an ounce of competency, how is anyone supposed to trust him to run the country?
