A minor note and pretty duh as McCain admits to tensions in his 2008 campaign over Sarah Palin. Note how it's framed though: "Steve Schimdt (the campaign manager) had problems with Palin's people" i.e. "It wasn't me and it wasn't Sarah, it was a few of our staff members" Nice political passing of the buck.
CBS has (exclusive! behind the scenes!) emails between Sarah Palin and John McCain's chief stagiest, Steve Schmidt.
The emails, from the final three weeks of the Presidential campaign, chronicle Palin's discovery and reaction to allegations that her husband, Todd, belonged to the Alaska Independence Party, which advocated separating Alaska from the United States. Palin wanted to respond to the stories, while Schimdt wanted to ignore it. Back and forth ensues, yada yada yada.
What's interesting is that these were leaked now, eight months after the election. Somebody on the Republican really doesn't like Palin.
