Legally, Palin should absolutely have a lawyer, and it doesn’t mean anything regarding guilt. Any person in Palin’s situation would do the exact same thing. However, politically, the perception problems are horrific. However, none of this has stopped the wingnuts from giving money by the millions to McCain-Palin. The far flung fundies are ecstatic, which was the purpose of the pick, along with blunting Obama’s amazing performance on Thursday.
Also, according to MSNBC and Andrea Mitchell, McCain and his team are more deeply vetting Palin now.
“… There are reports that there are Republican lawyers right now up in Alaska doing a deeper vet on Sarah Palin, despite their claims that she was fully — that everything about her background was fully known…” – Andrea Mitchell
Seems like McCain and his team are finally getting the message that while Palin is a boon to his base, he could lose everyone else in the process. Obviously, Palin was a last minute pick and though McCain’s team knew the broad strokes of some of the issues swirling around her, they didn’t get into the fine print. Heck of a job, Johnnie.
