Gov. Palin has been branching out politically lately. Sources from the McCain camp indicate that her deviations from the McCain platform are creating real tensions within the campaign. It could very well be that her policy contradictions were completely unintentional; that she got confused when answering direct questions, or just flatout didn't know what she was talking about. Honestly, that's not too hard to believe. Other inside sources have said that Palin's "lack of fundamental understanding of key issues" after her appointment "was dramatic." The sources went on to say that Palin might well have been the least informed candidate in history. But certain McCain aides have accused her of being a "diva," who "takes no advice from anyone," believing her statements were premeditated. She definitely shops like a diva. Palin is not the only V.P. to take a stand against her ticket-mate. Biden's getting his fair share, what with the "international crisis to test Obama" schpiel. John Edwards in '04, Gore in '96 and '92, even Bob Dole and Dan Quail have all endured some strife with their Presidential partners.
