McCain Aide - Martin Eisenstadt - Comes Forward Concerning Palin Criticisms!
This story has more twists!
A supposed 'aide' to John McCain who uses the name 'Martin Eisenstadt', claims that he is the one who leaked criticisms of Sarah Palin.
"So yes, to be clear, last week I was the one who leaked those things to a producer at Fox News who works with Cameron. Carl and his producers are good guys, and I don’t want them to have to worry about protecting their sources (and going through the wringer ala Judith Miller or Matt Cooper) on something like this. [...]
... it was clear that she simply didn’t have the ease of knowledge that we come to expect from a major party political candidate. Other slights came up, too: Not knowing the difference between Hezbollah and Hamas. Or the difference between the Shiites and Suni. Or when it came to international terrorist organizations, knowing that the IRA was in Northern Ireland, and ETA in Spain."

Out in the open, a good thing.
This from the comment section made me chuckle. (emphasis mine)
So the source is a former Giuliani supporter, which means a socially liberal, pro-choice, fiscally conservative neo-con who would naturally think of Palin as a disaster because of her evangelical Christian worldview.
