If I understand what's going on, McCain is in the process of destroying his reputation for straight shooting with the press. And doing so very publicly.

McCain Triumphs in Shark High Jump

It would appear that John McCain has embraced the Russia-is-next-to-Alaska theory of why Sarah Palin isn't as lacking in foreign policy experience as she seems.

From a new interview from ABC ...

Alaska is right next to Russia. She understands that. Look, Sen. Obama's never visited south of our border. I mean, please.

...

Gov. Palin knows the surge has succeeded. She's the commander of the Alaskan National Guard. He said that Iran was a tiny problem. He's never visited south of our border. He has no experience on these issues.

She has been in charge and she has had national security as one of her primary responsibilities. Sen. Obama has never had a position of responsibility to do with many of those responsibilities. I'm proud of her vision. I'm proud of her strength.


It's sad that it's come to this.

Needless to say, Gov. Palin has no commander authority over the Alaska National Guard whatsoever in any cases tied even remotely to national security.
