John McCain picks newbie governor from Alaska, Sarah Palin as his VP running mate. Palin has been governor since December of 2006. Before that she was the two-term mayor and city council member of small town Wasilla City. So, you pick a young (44 year old) state governor with no foreign policy credentials and you've been talking all that yang about a certain Democratic nominee's lack of a resume? I know that Palin is not going up for president but, let's be honest, while none of us know the day nor the hour of our demise, McCain-Bush is knocking on death's door. This Palin character has to be ready, to borrow from HRC, to start the job on day one.
Palin is considered a bold choice for the McCain campaign. She is known as a reforming conservative who has been aggressively pushing for drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. (Um, that sounds like a smart choice).
Of course this is what they'd come up with the night after Obama beat it out the frame with his acceptance speech. Haters. FYI, putting a woman in a position of power does not necessarily make you progressive. (Look at Condoleezza Rice). I bet you this is partially a ploy for those rabid HRC supporters who refuse to do the sane thing and throw their support around Obama. I hope those fools don't start complaining if (God forbid) McCain is elected and the so-called Grand Ole Party (aka the Good Old Boys) continue eroding our rights.

I dont understand. He could have put ol Condolezza Rice in that position. She has some experience even if she still does not know what to do.
