Poll question: What will happen with Palin?
Me, I think we're gonna be seeing some really funny Harriet Meiers / Sarah Palin cartoons pretty soon one way or another.
Poll result (42 votes)
McCain will pull his VP offer (0 votes, 0%)
She will be asked to bow out (6 votes, 14%)
She will bow out on her own (4 votes, 10%)
She'll remain as VP candidate (32 votes, 76%)
Other (0 votes, 0%)

2. She'll remain
The chance to throw her under the bus has passed. The only way they might still do that is if the affair pans out, and I think it would be too late at that point. If it is true, they'll probably just try to stonewall for eight weeks.

5. My god. 8 weeks... it just hit me that it's that close.
I've been out of the political scene for several months 'cause I just got burned out. 8 weeks. Dang.

3. I think she stays.
Unless something really bad comes out she's going to be there. The Republicans are going to go with the trick play.

9. I think she'll "withdraw" with the excuse of family pressures and by withdraw I mean they'll push her ass out.

12. It's apparently the mcCain's team wish that she remain on the ticket but after the speech in St. Paul, I think the next SEVERAL miles of highway are going to be rough and full of unexpected turns.
Maybe the National Enquirer affair story is a trap. But maybe it isn't.
And who knows what else McCain's team of attorneys will find -- the cadre he sent north a day or two ago.
And we haven't even gotten to the white-flame glare of media attention, press conferences, and interviews. They could keep her on a very tight leash but it's more trouble than it's worth when McCain needs a much more independent advocate. She doesn't have the savvy to politic in the contiguous states in the 24-7 cable news cycles. She's out of her league and then some.
I'd argue that anybody who storms into a public library to ask how to censor certain books is out of her league as a small-town mayor as well.
And finally there'll come the veep debate against Joe Biden.
McCain did himself no favors with the Palin pick.
