Over at Byrne-ing Up The Internet Leslie Byrne has a very thoughtful post about the Bush/McCain/Rove/Palin Republican campaign’s request for their chosen VP candidate’s personal life and family issues to be off limits. The post is titled, Sarah Puts On Her Cheney Hat (shirt)? I urge you to check it out.
One view I handily concur with: “Why McCain chose Governor Palin remains to be explained. Gov. Palin’s record also needs to be vetted just as her “world view” needs to be explored and where she would take the nation if indeed she became President, needs to be understood. Doing this is not sexism, it is our duty.” and until the American people get adequate answers she has no business being covered by the media on anything else.
