Why would Senator McCain choose someone to serve in his cabinet under investigation?

Question

Why would he take such a chance ?

Answer 1

Because his team didn't do their research and McCain has questionable judgement skills.

Answer 2

It is called "innocent until proven guilty" !!!

Why would the Democratic Party Nominate an anti-American with SO MANY questions about him, his origins, his muslim background, his anti-Amerixcan preachers, his g*y drug induced affair with Lary Sinclair and others ... etc. ??

Alaska Govermor Sarah Palin has MORE TOTAL political experience than Obama!!

Answer 3

Because he didn't have anyone check her out beforehand.  Obama had a team that was vetting all his possible choices for months ahead of time.  This choice clearly shows McCain has poor judgment.

Answer 4

Senile people do unusual things.

Answer 5

Due to her new found status the wack-o's are coming out of the closet with false claims. She is being looked at for firing some trooper that tazored a child. From the Huntington Post:

"Then there's trooper Mike Wooten, who used a Taser on his stepson, Palin's nephew Payton. Wooten has been reprimanded for violating nearly a dozen laws and departmental policies since December 2001."

Answer 6

why would he pick a walking poster child for planned parenthood. pregnant teens. firing people to avoid child support for her sister. let's book 'em on jerry. her husband's not a L*****n is he.  

Answer 7

Because he can not find anyone that is Not under Investigation that is willing to work with him.

Answer 8

There is nothing to the allegations.  It is just local politics.

Answer 9

Desperate and Scrambling would be my best guess.

Answer 10

McCain didn't pick Palin to be in his cabinet, he picked her as his running mate for vice president. The cabinet isn't picked until the election is completed and a president is elected, which God willing, McCain will never be!

That being said, Palin is certainly not the brightest choice for VP.
