Whack job? You betcha! By DOUG THOMPSON
Senior aides to Sen. John McCain tell reporters his flakey running mate is "a whack job."
A couple of days earlier, those same aides called her "a diva."
And a couple of days earlier, they said she had "gone rogue."
Ah, you gotta love the smell of death on a political morning. With less than a week to go, the flies and buzzards are already gathering around the dying campaign of John McCain and Sarah Palin.
I worked in Republican politics long enough to know the symptoms. The smell of death has descended on the Republican National Committee and the finger pointing has started. When the debacle masquerading as the 2008 Presidential campaign is finally put out of the nation's misery the post mortems will point to two failed, brain-dead candidates for the two highest offices in the land: John McCain, whose brain succumbed to Alzheimers too long ago, and Sarah Palin, whose sub-level IQ may qualify her as a frat party favor but little else.
