It's beginning to look a lot like if John Dubya McCain somehow manages to win the upcoming election, he'll do it primarily because people want to vote for his "runeen mate," not for him. I'm not sure anything like that's ever happened before in American politics.
After Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, his running-mate, riveted the overflow crowd at an airplane hanger here for 16 minutes, it was McCain's turn, and people in his audience began murmuring and drifting away midway through a 14-minute speech that was flat and cheerless. When McCain made his first appearance without Palin, on Monday morning in Jacksonville, he faced an arena that was one-quarter full.
