Palin’s Dominance Dooms McCain

[Christa]

Senator John McCain can’t live without Sarah Palin but he can’t live with her either, at least not much longer.

McCain is much like Professor Rath in “The Blue Angel.” He’s infatuated with someone much younger and he has joined the carnival just to be near her. The Palin act travels from one town to the next attracting crowds of Bush-Cheney dead enders. She steps forward, with the confidence of a high school cheerleader while the full professor of perverse politics looks on with admiration and affection.

The net effect of the Palin addition is in dispute. If you’re part of the Republican media shill brigade, it’s been terrific, a brilliant choice. Looking at it objectively, there’s been little impact on the ticket, unless you buy into the Gallup Poll that showed what looked like a McCain convention bounce. To “stand up” the bounce, Gallup simply added more Republicans to their sample, driving up McCain’s numbers. But if you’re candidate John McCain, you’re locked and loaded, exhilarated, and infused vicariously by your vision of Palin’s draw.

Now Palin has McCain trapped. Very soon, he won’t be able to live with her. But without her, his decent into triple digit crowds and positions that represent a shrinking minority of the electorate will only cause the public to recall his infatuation with a woman who encouraged the slaughter of wolves and payment for their subsequent dismemberment.
