McCain team used little more than a Google Internet search to review Palin

[DogPoundPup]

One Republican strategist with close ties to the campaign described the candidate's closest supporters as "keeping their fingers crossed" in hopes that additional information does not force McCain to revisit the decision. According to this Republican, who would discuss internal campaign strategizing only on condition of anonymity, the McCain team used little more than a Google Internet search as part of a rushed effort to review Palin's potential pitfalls. Just over a week ago, Palin was not on McCain's short list of potential running mates, the Republican said.

3. What Google were they using? Seems to me bloggers have found shit with barely any effort.

But then again, I wouldn't expect McCondo's campaign to be up-to-date with anything more than a cursory Google search.

How can the leader of the free world fail so spectacularly at vetting and and using Google?

:rofl:

4. Did they hire Monica Googling after she left DOJ?

This sounds like something she could be involved in.
