We Must Consider John McCain's Lack Of Judgement

advertisement

John McCain in the last few weeks has shown us more about his character than any book or biography could expose. That is what we know about McCain. McCain is a loose cannon and he does not think through decisions and the decision making process used by McCain is suspect. Do we want a president that makes decisions off the cuff? John McCain does not listen to his closest advisers. Many Republicans advised McCain to take a serious look at Mitt Romney, who given the choices, was probably the strongest candidate he could possibly select.

Admittedly Romney, came with baggage, but in terms of notoriety and experience, no one could argue for very long with the selection of Romney. But what does McCain do? He ignores his closest advisors and picks Sarah Palin, a Governor from Alaska, as his Vice Presidential pick. What does this say about his judgment? He only met the Alaskan Governor once, some say six months ago. Not only this, the Governor from Alaska, has only been in office about 19 months, prior to that she has little governmental experience.

All we've heard for the last 24 hours from Republican surrogates is that Sarah Palin brings a wealth of experience from her role as Governor in Alaska. Unless Americans are dumb, I do not believe there is anyone who will buy it. All this is great evidence that McCain is not ready, and does not have the mental faculties to lead this country.

We must remember that Sarah Palin, a person we know nothing about, could be one tragedy away from leading this country, should something happen to John McCain, if he were elected President. What could Palin accomplish in the office of President? Has she ever managed an organization, as big as the American Government? Has she ever dealt with both Congress and the Senate in getting legislation passed? It would be a complete nightmare. Are we ready for eight more years of Republican incompetence?
