Actually he had a lot of good things to say about McCain however it seems he understands you can still like someone and also speak your opinion about them. I get the impression Letterman really likes McCain or at least the "old McCain" but he thinks Palin was a horrible pick and isn't scared to say it.
As a side note this is a interview that was posted on youtube yesterday with Palin.

Just watch this interview and she just doesn't have a clue. If she gets hit with a question she doesn't have a scripted response for, she just doesn't have a clue as to what to say. It's no wonder McCain couldn't trust her to run the campaign for a few days. She just bables, if she doesn't have a scripted answer.
Dunno. but I saw an interview last night with the Ex CEO of Shell Oil (I think it was)
The subject of Palin came up and the interviewer asked him
"You had a couple of run ins with Palin didnt you?"
He responded
"Oh yea, She's the real deal. dont underestimate her.
She let us know in no uncertain terms exactly who was running Alaska. And it wasnt the Oil companies."
He added that while they were able to work with her. It was clear that the government was going ot tell the oil companies how it was going to be done, Not the other way around.
Now she may not have "faced down" the leadership of a forgien government.
But Big Oil is damn near just as good if not damn near the same thing.
In my not so humble opinion.
I like Palin.
I like her a hell of alot more then I like McCain
I wish the ticket were the other way around.
I havent looked at that video yet but I do know that if you follow someone around with a camera long enough. You sure to get some real gaffs
It is my understanding that there are a bunch of YouTube videos out of Bidin has been making quite the fool of himself lately too.
