A thousand energy professionals shake their heads in collective disbelief

“Energy. She knows more about energy than probably anyone else in the United States of America.”

That’s John McCain on Sarah Palin.

(From Talking Points Memo.)
More than T. Boone Pickens? More than the oil company executives who paid her campaign bills? More than the members of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources? More than all the oil executives who contributed to Cheney’s secret Energy Task Force?
Is John McCain simply stupid (or senile), or has he concluded that it simply doesn’t matter what bullshit he spouts?
