When will McCain dump Palin?

Well there seems to be a pool going in the predictions market in Las Vegas that Palin will drop off the ticket before the election. Here are a few items that are already fueling the speculation: Troopergate... Preparedness Questioned... Defense Role Negated... Almost Recalled... No Iraq Focus... Ted Steven's Scandal... Secessionist Party... Earmarks Beneficiary... Pregnant Daughter... Abramoff Connection... Corruption Investigation... Church And State...

The Intrade prediction market has opened trading on whether "Sarah Palin [is] to be withdrawn as Republican VP nominee before 2008 presidential election." At 8:55 am, Tuesday morning, the market is selling the prediction at 18 a share and rising. That means 18 percent of traders think Palin will be removed.

Some think that McCain picked her so he can blame a lost election to her; others are comparing this to the Harriet Miers fiasco.

If she keeps this up she'll match Hillary: Gov. Sarah Palin's favorable/unfavorable ratings have suffered a stunning 21 point collapse in just one week, according to Research 2000 polling. Last week, 52% approved and 35% disapproved of the GOP vice presidential nominee (+17 net). This week, 42% approved and 46% disapprove (-4 net).

Earlier this week, Newsweek also saw the drop in other polling. "Over the course of a single weekend... Palin went from being the most popular White House hopeful to the least."

I'd say the lipstick is smeared off the pig.

Dem or Rep. She is a terrible VP pick. No experience, too much baggage.

How close has any minority ever come to becoming PM of Canada?

He's as qualified as an imprisoned soldier who has aligned himself with Bush 90% of the time over the last 8 years.
He's more qualified than an old, 4 time cancer stricken man when faced with his first big decision of who should be his second in command picks an unqualified, backwoods, small-town Governer who can't even face questions from the press let alone Al Qeada, Putin, Iran or repair the economy!

Not close at all. A women was once PM when the sitting PM resigned.
