Did McCain realize he was going to have so much drama with this VP pick? ?

Question

If so, what does that say about his judgment? If not, why not?

Answer 1

If we can't vet the VP better than this we deserve to lose by a landslide.

I'll vote Bob Barr.

Answer 2

Drama = attention

Attention on you means its not on your opponent.

I'm sure the happy liberal bloggers are exctatic today about outing the 17 year old girl.  It makes them happy to help beat up on a strong family.  God Bless the Palins.  

Answer 3

He believes that any publicity is good publicity(i.e. not too swift)

Answer 4

What Drama? Obama trying to find flaws in her but not succeeding? She is an excellent canidate and it shows how sound his judgement is.... It doesn't matter what McCain does, the Obama camp is going to attack it. When you have nothing positive to say about your own campaign, all that's left to do is attack the other one

Answer 5

His judgement always was suspect, you're talking about a guy who lost 5 planes, one of which to enemy fire.
