It might look to some like Sarah Palin is Dick Cheney on steroids. It's okay to play contrarian with a running mate, but it will be considered insubordination when he's your boss.

Democrats should stay away from the baby stories. They must resist the urge to comment at all on it. Let the media do the muckraking.
