re: #229 Wendell Zurkowitz (slave to the waffle light)
McCain’s first choice was joe Liebermann, but he was an Independent (ex Democrat) and Jewish, which would have totally alienated the extreme right/Christian fundamentalist wing of the party.
McCain was smart enough to know that Sarah was a bad choice, but she was foisted on him as his only choice if he wanted the slightest chance of winning.
Where are you getting the idea she was foisted on him?
