It's pretty strange when a candidate can't trust his own running mate to be out there spinning on his behalf.
And it's funny that a lot of McCain supporters seem to think that's about media bias and not the fact that Palin is in lockdown somewhere.

ABC amazes me. They refused
ABC amazes me. They refused to let interview Biden because Sarah Palin was MIA and they claim it's because they wanted to be fair?
That's not fair. That's obviously biased. Cable can get away with things like but aren't there certain minimum FCC requirements to retain their license?
rationalization is our greatest enemy
Yup, "the media is biased" has been the #1 rationalization for McCain supporters as to why Palin "won't interview." No one seems to ask why she won't even show up on FOX News...
Apparently a bunch of people
Apparently a bunch of people called CNN mad because they interviewed Biden and not Palin. Wolfie just said "happy to talk to her, any time she wants to come by."
