The Unavailable Candidate, Day 24
The WaPo notes the historically unprecedented attempt by a vice-presidential nominee to hide from press accountability:
Mr. McCain is entitled to choose the person he thinks would be best for
the job. He is not entitled to keep the public from being able to make
an informed assessment of that judgment. Ms. Palin's speech-making
skills are impressive, but the more she repeats the same stump speech
lines, the queasier we get. Nor have her answers to the gentle
questioning she has encountered provided any confidence that Ms. Palin
has a grasp of the issues.
There are only a few weeks to go before the United States may pick a potential president who has never given a press conference as a candidate for national office. This is not a functioning democracy.
