Yes folks, courtesy of Glenn Greenwald's interview with Scott Horton on various topics comes this bombshell. The one person pushing for the selection of Sarah Palin throughout the summer was William Kristol of the New York Times.
It certainly sheds some light as to the spat going on between Kristol and the McCain campaign over the past few days. With McCain's poll numbers tanking, and now in free fall, ever since the selection of Mrs. Mooseburger, the finger pointing has begun in earnest.

Glenn Greenwald's intro regarding Scott Horton:
My guest today is Scott Horton, who is an international human rights lawyer in New York, an adjunct professor at Columbia Law School, and a contributor to Harper's. And Scott has a couple of pieces in The Daily Beast, the new online publication from Tina Brown and others that are very interesting, and we're going to discuss today. Scott, welcome; thanks for joining me.
More below the fold.
