I find it hard to believe that McCain knew about this beforehand, and decided it still would not be an imposition to the Repub ticket.
But to be fair, lets take the oxymorons out of our decision process, and put the Palin family first. It just sounds to me like two of her daughters (let alone the other three) will really be needing Mom’s attention during the next four years. They need her at home more than we need her in Washington, I believe.
How is she not going to feel distracted while in the White House?
