it's about mccain

andrew sullivan, who followed the entire palin saga closer than almost anyone, on her resigning as governor of alaska:

In the end, I think, the one thing to say is that the Republican party is in such a total state of collapse and incoherence that it actually believed she could be a future president; and that John McCain was so reckless, so cynical and so cavalier that he was prepared to rest the national security of this country on her shoulders if he, in his seventies, were to become unable to fulfill his duties or die.

In some ways, this is a moment to reflect on McCain, and his irresponsibility, not Palin and her drama.
