1. Obama is not running against Palin at all. You can't conflate the presidential and vice-presidential candidates. The only other alternative is McCain. Palin is there simply to make McCain more popular.
2. Obama was clearly spooked by Palin's selection. He was upset that someone got more media attention than him.
3. I just think that the strategy doesn't work. McCain is not known to be an ardent supporter of Bush.
