Trouble’s a brewing! Sarah Palin has stolen John McCain’s thunder and Cindy McCain’s oxycontin prescription. And nobody is too happy about it, leading to delicious Republican cannibalism reported by Ben Smith<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Four Republicans close to Palin said she has decided increasingly to disregard the advice of the former Bush aides tasked to handle her, creating occasionally tense situations as she travels the country with them. Those Palin supporters, inside the campaign and out, said Palin blames her handlers for a botched rollout and a tarnished public image \u2014 even as others in McCain’s camp blame the pick of the relatively inexperienced Alaska governor, and her public performance, for McCain’s decline.<\/p>\n

“She’s lost confidence in most of the people on the plane,” said a senior Republican who speaks to Palin, referring to her campaign jet. He said Palin had begun to “go rogue” in some of her public pronouncements and decisions.<\/p>\n

“I think she’d like to go more rogue,” he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Combined with this from CNN<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Some of John McCain’s advisers are not happy that his running mate, Governor Sarah Palin, is making a habit of going off-script and off-message with some of her comments\u2026 Most recently this weekend when she discussed her wardrobe at a rally in Florida.<\/p>\n

So let’s play “what if?”<\/p>\n

What if John McCain had not picked Sarah Palin to be his running mate? For one thing, the Republicans probably wouldn’t have had to spend $150,000 buying clothes for the candidate.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
