Minutes after an aide to John McCain effectively described Sarah Palin as unhinged — the latest sign of open war inside the embattled Republican campaign — the two candidates were roared on to a stage yesterday in Pennsylvania, a state that is central to their ever narrowing path to victory.

In the past week, aides to the Arizona senator have briefed reporters anonymously against Mrs Palin, describing the Alaska Governor as a “diva”. Yesterday a far harsher pejorative emerged: one called her a “whack job”, a term usually reserved for people who are dangerously unbalanced.

It is not possible that she could be a bigger whackjob than McNutz. No way.

Unlike Palin, at least McCain isn't an "end is nigh" rapture nutter. And he's better informed about what goes on in the world than she is, though that's not saying much.

All of his craziness is secular, so McCain doesn't go around pretending that God told him that we have to occupy Iraq for 100 years or bomb Iran. That in itself makes him less of an embarassment than Palin, who I expect to start talking in tongues during inauguration.

Many people believe "the end is near." Why would I (or you) fault someone for their beliefs? I also believe that (but don't make any predictions about it). And as for my previous comment, that she couldn't be a bigger whackjob than McNutz, I stand by that.

With all due respect believing "the end is near." is neither here or there however when one digs a little deeper we find Sarah's "end times" idioligy is based on, as is the case with most if not all evangelicals,the Scofield Reference Bible and it's interpretation of Genesis written a hundred years ago....ironic that 70 million so called Christians believe in a lie...once one understands this it is easy to figure out why you have preachers like John Hagee and the Christian Zionist movements blind support of Israel....just my 2c

I don't argue with people about religion. God will sort it all out in his own way and in his own time. I am comfortable with what I believe and make no apologies for it.
