Ethics missing from McCain staff on Sarah Palin

It is no secret what I think about Sarah Palin. I think she may be a nice person to some but what we saw and heard during the nine weeks of the campaign, show a woman with no problem lying about some very important things. Clearly she was not ready to be Vice-President and definitely not ready to be President if anything happened to McCain. This showed in the interviews.

What is really getting me angry about all the reports that have come out about Palin ever since is the fact that they should have come out well before the campaign lost. Where are the ethics of the people making these claims now? If they had a shred of commitment to the nation above politics, they should have stepped up and reported on all of this before it was too late. So why didn't they?

If Palin was so uninformed that she didn't know Africa was a continent, which is grade school level knowledge, didn't they think it was important for the American people to know considering the demanding role they tried to make us believe she was ready to take on? If Palin didn't know what countries comprised North America, didn't they think there would be a very serious problem with her in the second position of this nation? What were they thinking?

What about the GOP? Didn't they think they owed anything to the GOP or the people who gave their money to the GOP and the McCain campaign? Where is the outrage from any of them? Where is the outrage from the GOP? Are any of them paying attention to any of this instead of scratching their heads wondering why they lost?

They want to play games and look for a win no matter who has to pay for it! This nation almost paid dearly because they did not speak up and tell the truth about important facts the American people had a right to know and they had an obligation to tell before there was a chance she could have been the Vice President and McCain, who apparently didn't care if she was even capable of the job, had no problem selling her to the public instead of actually putting the country first instead of his campaign. He has disgraced himself and ended up dragging Palin thru a lot of hell because he should have left her in Alaska and out of the media spotlight.

Above all I feel sorry for the voters who believe in McCain and believed all the lies they heard instead of actually investing the time to find out what the truth was.

I think the media should leave Palin alone now and let her get back to work as the Governor of Alaska until the next election. This whole thing was an eye opener for the people who believed in her there too.

As for McCain's staff, anyone in politics should think twice before letting them get into that kind of position of power ever again. They didn't do the right thing. They were too busy thinking of themselves before and after when they let out all of this information after they lost and tried to find someone else to blame.kc
