The Unlikely Defender Of Sarah Palin That Is Mike Gravel

Former Democrat Alaska Senator and no-chance candidate in the Democrat primary Mike Gravel "applauds" McCain's selection of Sarah Palin on liberal radio. He goes on to defend her when it comes to the non-scandal that is "Troopergate" saying it will "come out in her favor" because the trooper "should have been fired." He even says Palin has "more executive experience than Obama, Biden, and McCain have together." He points out that the disagrees with Palin on the issues, that she is not his "cup of tea" in that regard, but that he does not hold that against her because as the Republican VP pick that is to be expected. Gravel says that McCain "respects the fact that she has the courage to stand up to Republican corruption, not Democratic corruption, Republican corruption." You can get a clear sense that the radio hosts had no idea what they were getting into when they invited Gravel, himself a very liberal guy as is evident by the very end of the interview, on to their program. What is also just wonderful is that these liberal hosts have no response to the common sense that their fellow liberal Mike Gravel is espousing.
