So which gets a more thorough vetting: a member of a Missouri Supreme Court judicial panel [1] selected by the appellate judicial commission or a Republican nominee for Vice President [2] of the United States?

Does Governor Matt Blunt believe that a sufficient job of vetting his party's veep nominee was done with the barely investigated Palin when he has committed himself to deep, detailed investigations of the lives and careers of applicants for Missouri's highest bench?  Isn't he outraged?
