"Diva!": The McCain-Palin Split Widens

This is staggering in the last week of a campaign:

A second McCain source tells CNN she appears to now be looking out for herself more than the McCain campaign.

“She is a diva. She takes no advice from anyone,” said this McCain adviser, “she does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family or anyone else. Also she is playing for her own future and sees herself as the next leader of the party. Remember: divas trust only unto themselves as they see themselves as the beginning and end of all wisdom.”

I repeat: "she does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family or anyone else." If McCain doesn't trust her, why should anyone else?
