Call Me Mikestrodamus
John McCain picked his VP. As I said on August 22:
"I have to think his pick will be one or more of the following: young, a minority, and a woman. McCain will want someone of the youth movement but probably very conservative... ."
His pick is a woman and young. In fact, she is the youngest person to ever be selected as the governor of Alaska. Congrats to Gov. Sarah Palin!
But I can't help but think this selection is more about strategy than about credentials. If she truly is the best candidate, my apologies for making the suggestion, but I have to believe she was picked to counteract Obama being a minority and McCain being old.

i call it the "old guy and soccer mom ticket".
but that's just me being snarky.
i am impressed that he picked a woman. i really hope that is does show some sort of forward thinking for the party and not just a strategic move to get the hillary lovers to vote for mccain.
is anyone else tired of this whole thing?
I am not so convinced that if McGain (God forbid) should become ill in office that Ms. Palin has the experience necessary to run the country.
AGREE MD.
And that is my biggest fear, I DO NOT want her running our country at all if they would get in the White House.
