McCain/Palin Infighting Being Reported

In the aftermath of the Barack Obama presidential election victory, the John McCain camp is apparently trying to end Sarah Palin's national political career before it begins. The New York Times is reporting that top McCain advisers are openly criticizing Palin, calling her difficult and looking openly looking past 2008 towards her own long term ambitions.

An interesting story on how quickly political fortunes, and loyalties can change after a campaign loss. Perhaps if McCain had property vetted Gov. Palin, he would have chosen another running mate. All politicians have egos, and it had to be angering the McCain camp that Palin had become the media darling of the party.
