Does Yuval Levin really believe that the truly surreal story and crazy, beyond-the-fringe record of Sarah Palin were somehow going to remain untouched by human hands? The press doesn't matter so much any more. We all have Google. Does Yuval? All you need are the archives of the Anchorage Daily News, and an ounce of common sense. If the press had sat on its hands the last few days, the nomination of Palin would still be clearly the worst executive decision ever made by a candidate for president in the modern era. Sorry, Yuval, but this is McCain's giant mistake and no one else's.
