Delicious. The McCain camp wants to call "no fairzeez" if Gwen Ifill asks too many foreign policy questions.
Note to McCain camp: Your candidate is running on foreign policy! Nothing Else! His economic agenda is the GOP/Bush agenda but with cutting pork barrel spending (has anyone actually seen a barrel of pork, by the way? Just curious. Seems like an odd cliche is all.)
There is nothing else there. The chief argument for the GOP--and it is a serious one--is that McCain is more suited to lead the US through these turbulent times given the terrorist threat. The End. In fact, he is betting so heavily on it that he dismisses the economic side of things almost entirely. (Does anyone seriously believe that "Bush/GOP economic agenda, but a shade stingier," will actually be persuasive given the economic conditions we face presently)?
Given all that, how can the McCain camp--even for a second--try to protect their VP choice from being inexperienced and/or unknowledgeable about foreign policy? This would be a joke if it wasn't so serious. Instead, it's a sham. An utterly absurd, and insulting, sham.
