Yellow Dog

Today McCain campaign manager Rick Davis said that Palin won't give any interviews until she is "comfortable" and "until the point in time when she'll be treated with respect and deference." At the moment she is off being "tutored" at some undisclosed location and is not ready for prime time (or even a softball interview from her Friends at Fox). That's pretty scary to contemplate--two months from the election, and Palin is being prepped on foreign policy and the challenges and tasks facing this country.

As Josh Micah Marshall points out, "That's really all we need to know" about whether she is prepared to be a heartbeat away form the presidency.

At least Cheney waited until _after_ the campaign to hide out at his undisclosed location.
