You have to give John McCain and his team credit: they know how to pick a VP.
NYT: John McCain selects Sarah Palin, the Republican Governor of Alaska
Sarah Palin has a lot of good things going for her as far as the Republicans are concerned:
1) She's a woman: What better way to try and drive those woman who are angry that Hilary Clinton did not get the nomination to the Republicans?
2) She is young: She's only 44 and will probably help to balance the criticism that McCain is as old as the dirt itself.
3) She's not in Washington: Alaska is about as far from Washington as you can get.
4) She is a staunch anti-corruption and anti-pet project crusader: You remember that Bridge to Nowhere in Alaska that everyone constantly made fun of? She was the one who cancelled the project. She has also been helping with the investigation into Ted Stevens (he's being investigated for letting oil companies pay for some construction on a house he owns).

McCain just picked her so that he can drill in Alaska. Plus the Clinton supporters the vote for McCain based on this freaky chick, are not very bright. How do you go as a democrat to voting republican just for spite. Sounds dumb to me...
I still refuse to give McCain any credit. He is still going to give us 4 more years of Bush like administration.
You just like her cause shes a cougar!!!!
"The volatile issue of teaching creation science in public schools popped up in the Alaska governor's race this week when Republican Sarah Palin said she thinks creationism should be taught alongside evolution in the state's public classrooms. Palin was answering a question from the moderator near the conclusion of Wednesday night's televised debate on KAKM Channel 7 when she said, "Teach both. You know, don't be afraid of information."
OOH OOH he picked another religious person, such outside the box thinking is awesome. A person who really believes creationism should be taught in schools.
HAHAHAHA there's already a www.vpilf.com site with content.
