John McCain’s choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) as his running mate is turning out to be a disaster, as polls now show that more supporters of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) are backing Barack Obama than they were just a few weeks ago, writes DemFromCT. Perhaps Palin, who is facing a constant drip of negative press, will refuse to accept the GOP veep post, just like Harriet Miers withdrew herself from consideration for the U. S. Supreme Court, writes DHinMI.
