Krauthammer: Palin Pick "Near Suicidal"

Not everyone is impressed with the pick of Sarah Palin. Charles Krauthammer, who I very often agree with, said that the pick undercuts the one argument that has worked best for McCain: that Obama is not ready to lead. He says it is "near suicidal."

I generally agree, but also think that there are plenty of other lines of attack against Obama, including his associations and radicalism. But true, it will be hard to argue that Palin is more experienced than Obama, even if she has held more executive experience and even if she's only the backup.
