McCain's Running mate

[BigV]

Nice save, glatt. Back on topic.

I read that article too. Wanting to ban some books because you want to be responsive to your constituents is perfectly valid. I find it repugnant, but it is one real way to be the decider-executive-person. I also think it's a valid topic for discussion in this context.

--an aside--
I watched Chris Matthews interview John McCain this past Sunday. It was... jarring. But one of the more comic moments came when Matthews was skeptically ticking off Palin's experience as a follow on to the question of her readiness to serve (as President, a heartbeat away :gasp: ). He mentioned her short time as governor, and her two terms as mayor, and even listed her time as a city councilwoman. I could barely believe my eyes when McCain responded. He scolded Matthews for leaving out her service in the PTA! He wasn't joking.

It came off as though McCain was remembering his coaching to include the whole of her resume, since it would inevitably come up. I lol'ed
